a good night, the church, and leg pushes

Lily did great last night at the hotel!! She went right to sleep on her own and slept like a baby - literally. :) She even slept "in" until 7:45! Matt and I just laid in bed with the lights off and had brought our headphones to watch movies on the laptop (ours had two headphone inputs). Lily even took her little nightly "bath" in the sink.
In a short synopsis of the church experience today... our answer will be no if it's offered. We think they really liked Matt, but it is definitely not the place for us. It was VERY VERY traditional and most of the people there were over 50. They have a decent size youth group but nothing in between teens and 50's. I think someone said they had one baby at the time. One of our important criteria now for a church is that it be a place we feel good raising Lily in and a place that has good resources for her. So although everyone was very nice, it's just not where we feel God would have us.
Lily news: After we got home this afternoon, she was laying on her tummy on her floor gym. She actually started trying to get her little legs up under her and push them. This being the VERY early start of crawling. Obviously she has awhile to go to accomplish crawling. But it's her first start in the right direction!! Yeah Lily!!! We also have an official thumb sucker. The past two days she has been finding that thing all the time and loves it. SOO cute!
