4 months and many changes



Lily had her 1st Thanksgiving last weekend. We went up to Ryan's mom's (Grandma Kathy & Grandpa Ron's house) in Deland. Lily's Aunts and Uncle on the "Rheault" side were in town so it was nice to see everyone. The weather was beautiful and we had a nice visit. On Friday Lily went to her1st "Turkey Rod Run"(car show) at the Daytona Speedway. Grandpa Ron entered the 55 Chevy and 66 Mustang so it was quite the event. Saturday we trucked on over to "downtown" to walk around the shops as always.



Yesterday Lily had her 4 month check up at the dr.'s office. She passed with flying colors.

weight 13lbs 15oz
length 25in

She has grown out of most of her clothes again. We are now in 6-9mos sizes - growing like a weed. A week ago she rolled over from her belly to her back - Grammy was there to witness the first "flop over". But Grandma Kathy was able to witness Lily's 1st little belly laugh during the visit. We've tried cereal but its quite a chore. The dr. actually said to hold off until her weight gets up to the 15-16lb range. She is still teething. About a week ago she finally figured out how to grasp onto things. She is now working on the coordination to chew and hold at the same time - occasionally she holds her bottle. The last thing that she started to enjoy but I'm not too thrilled about is... "The Nuk" aka "Binky" or "Pacifier". I really don't like those but it actually soothes her and I think it may help with her teething - so we'll see how that goes. I hope it will just be a phase lol.
