Giving Thanks, 3 Months and Other Shenanigans


Lily E,
Hello pumpkin! This has been quite an exciting month for you. Here are some highlights:

This picture shows how absolutely perfect you are. Your face is probably the most perfect, however, as this
picture clearly shows. 

You started "talking" a lot more and have even begun to imitate sounds. The "ggg" is your favorite; you even said "ga" after your Grandma Schroeder was trying to get you to say Grandma! You are also imitating faces. You like when we stick our tounge out at you and concentrate very hard until you can stick yours out, too. You're basically the smartest baby ever.

Here's a little story you were telling Mom.

Pretty much the only time you nap for longer than 20 minutes is when
someone is holding you. I  don't think Grandpa minds, though :)



You have finally found your hands. I believe it's
comforting for you to suck on your fingers
because you are teething. Yes, at just 2 1/2
months we found two teeth coming in!! 
Here you are exploring with your hands some more.
You love your Daddy so much.







Thanksgiving

Being such a big girl on Thanksgiving.


GG got you to sleep. What a good Grandma!


Hanging out with Great Grandpa Zeunen.


Your first road trip was to Kentucky to see Papa Wyatt and
Grandma Jackie. Thanks to a handy dandy portable DVD
player and some Elmo, you had an excellent ride! (Please
don't judge us for resorting to TV at such a young age! We feel
it's better than letting you cry inconsolably for 5 hours!)

You had such a great time because there were so many people
there to hold and entertain you. Here you are with Aunt Glora.

Great Grandma Jackie did a great job of making sure you
 were always happy.
Four generation photo. Great Papa Wyatt, Mamaw, Daddy and Lily!
Here you are at three months. Our first real snow
happened this day. This pic is also great because
it shows how awesomely strong you are sitting in your
Bumbo all by yourself.
