Lily's First Snow Day

Today Montgomery County Public Schools did not have school today. While it was technically a snow day, there was no actual snow. There was ice though. After seeing all the accidents on the news, Lily and I talked it over and decided to spend the day in our pajamas. Here are some pictures of Lily hanging out in her pjs.

Lily appreciates fine art

Sometimes while she's eating, Lily likes to look at Aunt Shelley's pictures.

Lily and her Teddy

After her bath tonight Lily spent some quality time in her room with her teddy bear that Uncle Josh got her.

Then Lily had an exercise session.

But Mom! It's playtime! Not changing time!

Sometimes when I take Lily upstairs to change her, she gets very happy and smiley. I think she likes looking at the bright pictures of Snoopy. Or it could be the ceiling fan - who knows? :) Here are some random pictures and a video of that happening today. Please excuse the bad camera angles - I was holding the camera above her and I'm too short to see the LCD monitor.

Grandpa J Comes to Visit

Today Grandpa J came to visit. Here are some pictures from our day together.

Cooking with Mommy

Lily helped Sarah make dinner tonight. Note how involved she is...


Lily also played with her activity gym some more. She particularly likes kicking the toucan with her left foot.

Lily's First Superbowl

After Aunt Rachel and Uncle Steve left today, we ran some errands and prepared to watch Lily's first Super Bowl. We started by playing on the activity mat...


Then had a play session with Sarah...


Then Jake convinced Lily that she should root for the Giants...


Then, during halftime, Lily fell asleep!

All in all, it was an exciting day!!!!
