This Thanksgiving we were most thankful for our sweet Lilly.
Her first big Holiday was paired with meeting her Great Gramma and Grampa for the 1st time. She spent most of the day being passed between her incredibly adoring great aunties, and received lots of hugs and kisses from her Oma & Opa.
Having a baby certainly helps with NOT over-eating, since it was difficult to just sit and enjoy my food while Lilly was passed around. But, I guess that's the "bitter-sweet" of it all. I certainly enjoyed the meal on the days that followed Thanksgiving when I had those super-delicious leftovers. The following Monday, it was back to practicality as far as the diet was concerned.
It was nice to watch everyone interact with her and give her all their love. I think Lilly liked the stimulation. However, when the day was over, we could tell that Lilly was happy to come home to her (calm) little sanctuary.
My mom took this picture just after Lilly ate her meal. It was so sweet how she just stared into my face and cooed and grunted at me for about 10 minutes. I love the little noises she makes. Her personality is really starting to liven up.
Next post will probably be her Christmas picture......can't wait!!!
