Fall Fun--5 Months

Lily is growing big and strong and fall time is here. I really wanted to capture her in the fall leaves outside our home. She is such a happy and fun baby, we are enjoying watching her grow and develop every day. She is starting to like her rice cereal and baby foods, Time also gave her some tastes of tomato soup the other day! Also she is good at grabbing her toy and finding it fun to drop it on the floor. May the fun games begin! Other fun things she is doing ... she is making tiger/dinosaur growls at us... so cute and trying to talk or just mimic the sounds we make. She is wearing the 3-6month clothes and in a 2 diaper. She is still getting breastmilk, but also getting formula about 50% of the time. She is starting to prefer the bottle, so I am debating at this current time if I want to continue pumping or just use formula... Oh man I hate making these big decisions, I know breastmilk is the best, but pumping is alot of work and just inconvenient. I know I Know, I should just pump, but I just don't know. She tolerates the formula just fine, I guess we will see.

I enjoy reading the Bible to her daily. I know it may just be going over her head, but I feel that is good to start developing these habits now so that we are always doing them as she grows up. Plus I think little ones soak up more than we know... I want her to know how important God's word is to us as a family and pray she grows up to have her own hunger for the things of God.

Our little flower... so precious.

An update on Lily: She is still sleeping through the night, loves to smile and giggle. Lily can rollover and sit with assist. She loves to sit up and stand on her little legs. She seems to enjoy spending time in her "saucey saucer" chair and play with all the little toys on it. Lily also spends time in her Bumbo chair and is starting to take bites of baby food and cereal. Generally, she is a happy and content little girl and we feel so blessed to have the opportunity to be her parents. She is such a joy! :) Pictures taken at 3.5 months
