We've been busy busy! Don't really know what we've been doing but it seems like it's been one thing after the other - errands, trying to get settled in, church stuff, etc.
Two cute stories for the day... First, this evening before bed I was singing Lily the song "intsy wintsy spider." She apparently loved it because from then until bedtime she kept saying again to get me to sing it again and again and again. As soon as I would start singing it again, she would dance and move her arms around like she's directing the music. It was very cute.
Then we were in our bedroom. On the bathroom door in our room there is a long mirror. She always goes over there and looks at herself in it. Tonight I was doing something in there and realized that I kept hearing her give something kisses. And the lucky person was.... herself! She kept leaning in to the mirror giving herself kisses. It was adorable!!! Wish I could have gotten it on camera.
Lily has really been picking up on words lately and trying to get all kinds of different words out. Granted, most people might not pick up on it or know what it means but since I'm with her all the time I can translate pretty well. Here are some of the new ones she knows: minnie, tigger, again, milk, moo (for a cow), woof (for a dog), bye bye, dada, mama (using both for the right person!), shoes, socks, snack, nose, thank you, please, blanket, brush. They of course don't all come out sounding complete or exactly like they should but it's definitely what she's saying.
Yesterday was Valentine's Day. Lily got in bed with us in the morning and we opened presents. Lily got a cute little stuffed bear from her daddy and I got a brand new camera I had been wanting. Yay!! Ours had broken about a month ago and we had been borrowing Matt's parents camera until we got settled in our new home and had some money! I had done a lot of research and asked a few people I knew who were photographers about what the best digital point and shoot camera is right now. I am THOROUGHLY pleased too. It takes GREAT pictures and is fast. You don't have to wait a long time to take your next picture. He got me the Canon 1100SD in brown.
That afternoon we headed to Matt's parents house for a little while so Lily could play with Aaron over there. Nana took them outside since it wasn't too cold so they could ride in the wagon and ride in the cozy coupe. Lily loves that thing! Then that evening my parents came over to babysit Lily so Matt and I could go to the sweethearts banquet at church. So we had a great day. Matt is taking me out to dinner at pfchangs hopefully sometime this week or next for our valentine's date out alone.
I have some pics that I wanted to post with this blog but we haven't uploaded the camera software on to the computer yet so that will have to wait!
