October 4

Today this Mommy decided she needed to move a little more. I bundled Lily up and we went for a walk around the neighborhood. It was nice a cool today; much different than the 113 we had last Monday. We did two laps which should be close to two miles, maybe a little less. Lily does really well in the stroller. She looks around for a while and then dozes off for a while; she is really content most of the time.

After our walk (and morning nap) Lily got a bath. Her hair is starting to fall out, starting with the front first. Thus, her hair does funny things. Today I think she looked like a Kewpie Doll.

This afternoon she hung out with Grandma Peggy (I don't have any pictures) while I went to the doctor. Grandma was holding her when I left, and was holding her in the same chair when I returned. She swears she didn't hold her the whole time, although I know she would have liked to.

Then this evening, Lily helped me make enchiladas. Again, she hangs out in the chair really well. Today though, she started talking back to me. I'm sure I sound like a crazy person explaining to a five week old how to make enchiladas, but it is apparently working since she is beginning to babble back at me.

We have fun together.
