Yesderday.

Lilli was super cute yesterday. Well, except for when she yanked my hair, hard. I decided that i'd had enough and went to get a hair cut! I think it looks a lot better now, so i guess i can forgive her for her gaby-ness.

My favorite part of the day is when she started dancing to Cason's music. No joke, she was in rhythm, and then started to clap her hands! It was the cutest thing ever, but she clammed up when we got the camera out to take a video {like always}

We also took some mother/daughter pictures. I've had this shirt for a long time and thought it would be cute to take pictures with Lilli in her whale shirt too. However, i've been avoiding the experience because of my recent weight gain, but since Lilli has also had a recent weight gain, i figured we should do it before her shirt didn't fit anymore! Anyway...i think they turned out ok.

Cason then let me take a nap while he took care of Lillian. I fell asleep to the sounds of them playing and laughing--a very happy way to fall asleep!

7 months

Lillian is now 7 months old!

She is very wiggly, and dances like crazy when she gets excited.

She loves hangers, but hurt herself with one the other day, so she's not allowed to have them anymore.

She likes to go to the store and look at all the stuff and people. She'll reach her hands out and try to touch everything! She also really enjoys all the attention she gets when we're out and about...everybody loves this girl!

She lifts her bum up in the air when i change her diaper {she's been doing this for a few months...it still makes me smile each time though!}

She loves remotes, cell phones, and video game controllers, and has a fit when we won't let her have them.

Honestly, she's become quite spoiled. She pitches a fit whenever she doesn't get her way! She grabbed my grocery list while at Wal Mart the other day and screamed and cried when i took it away--oh boy.

she still doesn't have any teeth and hates tummy time. the only way i can keep her happy on her tummy is if i'm lying right next to her...we'll keep working on it!

As you can see, she's as cute as ever, and we just love her so much!!!

In non- Lilli related news:

Cason got a new job at Verison Wireless! He hasn't started yet, and it's been nice to have him home-- we'll be happy when he starts though so we can start making money again! I'm still looking for a job, i've filled out over 20 applications, but haven't heard anything yet--we're keeping our fingers crossed.

I also haven't been feeling too well. Mostly, i'm just really tired. Lilli and i were cuddling in bed last night and we both fell asleep around 8:30. I woke up at 3:30 and realized i hadn't changed her into her night-time diaper {oh no!} so, i got out of bed to change her. She slept through the whole process, but got a big grin on her face when i took the old wet diaper off, it was pretty cute! I tried to go back to sleep after that but couldn't because of heart burn. Also, it feels like my ribs are bruised {which is impossible...it's just what it feels like} I've been awake since, and i'm hoping to feel better soon!

morning rant

cason left a plate out last night (which i've warned him against) this morning, it was crawling with literally HUNDREDS of ants. YUCK YUCK YUCK.

also, our bathroom sink is leaking, AGAIN, along with our toilet, and our tub is broken.

it would be one thing if these were new problems, but they maintenance crew has been over here several times for the exact same problems-- i'm so sick of it!!! i don't want to go through thr hassle of breaking our contract and moving again, but i can't even explain how much i hate this place!!!

Buttons {she likes to sit on my lap and play with the buttons on my shirt}

Feet {she stares at Cason's feet for long periods of time}

Wiggling on her tummy {tummy time is still not her favorite, but she does think it's fun to wiggle around and see where she ends up!}

Talking {She's gotten VERY talkative over the past few days and the noises she makes are starting to sound like WORDS! it often sounds like she's saying "da-da" and "daddy" she's just not quite there yet!}

Grabbing her ear {should i be worried about that}

Playing with daddy {which continues to be scary for me}

Updated 3/14

{1 week old}

{4 months old}

She's now 6 months old, 18 pounds, and in the market for a bigger seat! where has the time gone?

{New Chair}

It may be a little early, but this rear/front car seat was on sale at Target so we decided to make the switch! Lilli is much more comfy, and the seat doesn't slide in the car at all so we're very happy with it!
