New Things

We have some new things happening!!!

1) We said sayonara to the soothie...Lily's pacifier. She's old enough to sooth herself and I don't really like walking around with a string hanging out of my back pocket (because it looks like I have a tail). She has actually done really well. There has been some crying and some extra snuggle time but it hasn't been anything like the nightmarish situations I've read about on the Internet. Dear Jesus, thank you, Amen.


2) We had our 18 month pediatrician visit. I know, it's a month late...but our pediatrician is super popular because she's totally awesome. In the last 6 months, Tiny has grown 4 inches and her weight has jumped from the 7th percentile to the 81st percentile. Yeah. Not a typo. That's a 74 point jump. I think maybe Tiny might not be an appropriate nickname anymore. 

(6 months ago...)

(Last week...)



3) Also, we finally finished painting the kitchen and the hallway. Why did it take so long? Well, Lily likes to "help" and by "help" I mean get into everything so the painting process was long and spanned many moons. Many many moons. But it's done now and it looks great.





4) And we planted some trees!! Yay!! Our yard is majorly missing some shade so we got a good deal on some beauties called October Glories. I have high hopes for some amazing foliage in the years to come. And if not beautiful foliage, hopefully it will at least obstruct our view into the neighbors kitchen. Lily, once again, was helpful. On the list of things I never thought I'd say, "No, you cannot go night night in the dirt hole. And please stop kissing the dirt. It's weird."
