Weekend

Things have gotten less crazy as of late but we are still busy.  On Saturday, we went to Mike's birthday party and Lilah had a ball playing with the other kids and David.  She also chased their dog Jack around the yard and played fetch with him.  Lilah had some jealousy issues when I held Sophia and I ended up with both of them in my arms.  Though, I had to give Sophia away when she started poking Lilah in the eye.  But here is a picture from before the party when Lilah was grabbing her blanket and then her purse and trying to open the door.


On Sunday, we went and visited a bunch of people and saw Marianne and James.  They were doing excellent and Marianne seems to be on the baby high.  Later, we went and had dinner at David's sister house and Lilah and I played soccer with Dominick and Nick.

Life lately

Life has been hectic for us lately because we seem to be doing a lot right now.  Over the weekend, David was kind enough to work on our friend’s car and Lilah got to hang out with Rayford.  They had a ball together and Rayford is really learning to be a gentleman around smaller kids (he’s 2).  On Sunday, we went strawberry picking at Baugher’s farm and Lilah was having fun on the playground (which is what we did first).  After that, we got to go on a small ride to the fields and Lilah was nice enough to let us both pick for a while and she was picking too!  It was cute watching her put them in the box and them pick them up to eat.  After that, she was not interested in picking and wanted to be held (I think it was because of how hot it was).
On Monday, Lilah showed us how much more she has been learning because she decided to take everything out of my lunchbox and when I asked her to put a specific object back in she did it!  She is also pointing to things and saying what they are.  On Tuesday, Lilah was a little bully again and tackled Major (I think she was trying to hug him).  But they were also dancing together and having a blast (they will go around dancing together and waving to everyone).  Lilah has also been feeding the children snacks, so maybe she’s training for a future career in politics.  Wednesday was interesting because when I picked her up from day I noticed a part of her ear was a little purple and it wasn’t until I got home that I noticed it looked like she was bit.  She did not seem bothered by it so I waited until today to tell daycare about it.  I think Major was just testing his boundaries.  But my little monkey has been chasing us around the house and then tackling us!  She really such a fun kid and I am really loving getting to do more and more with her every day.
Here are some pictures from Lilah hanging out in the tree before picking strawberries and a picture at home.

Weekend

            A lot happened this weekend.  On Friday, Lilah and I went down to Randallstown to meet up with David and have lunch with him.  After that, I went and picked up Rayford and brought him back to my house where there were beginning tornadoes happening near my house.  Luckily, nothing happened but the sky was really dark and it was extremely heavy rain.  On Saturday, we all went to the DC zoo with a work friend of mine named Laura.  Lilah had an awesome time at the zoo and she liked the prairie dogs and the petting farm where she petted a cow.  After that busy day, Lilah went to bed at 9:00pm and would not get up until 12:00pm Sunday except for when she cried.  But she had a fever Sunday and refused to eat until late in the day and that was not much.  She has a doctor’s appointment today but David’s dad was nice enough to watch her this morning so I could go to work.  Lilah appeared to be doing better though when she woke up at 3:00am and started tackling me.  Hopefully, she will be all better today.
