The Natives Are Restless

Oh my goodness, it is hard to keep my blog up to date on a daily basis. I mean, I have a lot going on! I went to NYC this past weekend and got to see my cousins again. I like to pull Matias's hair, and he liked to bite my head. I did not like that so much. Sofia didn't socialize a whole lot. She cried for her Mommy like every minute. And if she wasn't crying for her Mommy she was trying to get a break from her dad and brother. I thought my Daddy was bad harassing me!? My goodness! Uncle Sean is just as bad as Daddy! It is a good thing there is an even one-to-one ratio on that side of the family. Poor Tia and Sofia! It is always something with those Maurer men. We did get some good shots just sittin' around, chillin', puttin' things in our mouths. Observe!




I started sleeping in my crib in my own room last night. Stop! I know what you're thinking. You are thinking, "Well, Lilly, why didn't you start sleeping in your crib a long time ago? You are six months old right now and need to sleep in a proper bed!" And I know, you are right. But it is hard to leave Mommy and Daddy's room. I am right there when they need me! And Mommy still needs me on an average of 3 - 5 times a night. I make sure to wake her up so she knows it. But now that I'm in my crib, in my own room, it's Daddy who can't stay away. He got to spend 2 1/2 hours with me last night in my room! How wonderful for Daddy. I did feel sorry for Mommy though, I mean, she actually SLEPT most of the night. Silliness! Sheer silliness!

Mommy did say she will have to email my legions of readers the pictures from the wedding. There are just way too many to post on my blog. In about four and a half more hours when they are finished downloading onto stupid, slower than dirt Kodak gallery she will send them out.

Until next time, sleep tight!

Love,

Lilly

Shh! I'm very busy.




Sometimes when Mommy's at work, she starts thinking about me and just stares at my pictures. She thought she would afford you, my dedicated readers, the same privelege.


It's off to NYC this weekend for Uncle J and Aunt Tracey's wedding! Now Uncle J will be my official, legitimate Uncle instead of my Uncle-Living-in-Sin with Aunt Tracey. Good times!

Love,

Lilly

Three Little Birds






Today is my half birthday! Mommy and Daddy and Uncle Matt sang to me and I had a cupcake with three little birds. Daddy calls me "bird." Mommy calls me "bean." Daddy video taped me eating my cupcake but if you listen to the video without watching it, it sounds like Uncle Matt is in a porno. Maybe Mommy will post it on YouTube for kicks, but this is a family friendly web site, and Uncle Matt managed to make my half birthday family un-friendly. He's dirty like that.
But all in all, not bad for a half birthday!
Love,
Lilly

Jacob who?

This is Wilson, with his Mommy, Gretchen. They stayed with us this weekend and Mommy and Gretchen had so much fun rehashing all the bad stuff they did in college. It's a wonder Wilson and I aren't retarded.


Mommy and Gretchen took us to the aquarium. Wilson fell asleep. It was cool. I touched a starfish and then I put my hand in my mouth. It didn't taste so good.

Here I am telling Wilson to get out of my way.



Doesn't Mommy look comfortable holding two babies? Hmm...maybe a little too comfortable for me.


I've discovered two new implements for drinking though we all know which implement is still my favorite. Any-hoo...


The weather is getting nicer out! So nice I'll be able to show off my chubby little ankles pretty soon!

There you have it. A very busy week.

Love,

Lilly

Jacob & Lilly Sittin In a Tree...

We don't have too much new to report. I love to love to talk! I say things constantly. Mostly I tell Mommy I want new clothes and toys. At least that's what she tells Daddy I want when she goes out and buys stuff for me and then gets home with some 'splainin' to do. Daddy doesn't ask for a whole lot of 'splainin.' We all know who wears the diapers around here...
Thought I'd post some pictures of my boy!


So cute!
Love,
Lilly

Holy Poop!

What a weekend! I have been so busy. Today was a very busy day. If you recall, I haven't pooped in 8 days. But today, today I finally pooped. What a relief! I was so happy afterwards all I could do was laugh. I also made out with my first boy today. His name is Jacob. He's younger than me. His birthday is November 13, the same as my Uncle Dan's. Jacob is pretty hot but since we're moving, I think this was a one-time fling. Sorry, Jacob. Mommy and Daddy are getting the house ready to move. Daddy is so handy around the house. He learned everything from my Grampa. It raises the bar pretty high for me in terms of what I expect out of a man. I need a man who can fix things. All the boys I've met still get their butts wiped by their mommies. They can't fix anything. Mommy says it's going to take me at least 25 years to find a man who can fix things the way Daddy can, that's how long it took her. 25 years?! That's so long I can't even get my head wrapped around it. Someone please, please hand me a plastic toy I can stick in my mouth. Whew... That's a lot of thinking for a 5 month old baby today. I think I'm going to go to sleep now. G'night! Love, Lilly
