Diggin the cereal

Lily is 5 months old now! She's enjoys rolling like a crazy baby, giggling (esp. when Daddy plays peek a boo with her), grabbing at EVERYTHING, squealing with delight, dancing with Momma, talking to mirrors, splashing in the bath, watching and petting Emma (our yorkie), and oatmeal cereal. We tried rice cereal first but she did not like it. She's more of an oatmeal gal. It's usually a messy ordeal, but always fun.

Kissing Cousins

Lily had fun playing with Jace when we went to visit the fam.

We are FaMiLy

We recently went to Midland Odessa to visit the fam. Uncle Mike is home from Iraq (hopefully for good)... YEA! Jordan was home for R&R from Afghanistan. We enjoyed seeing them both. I think Lily could sense that Jordan wasn't too sure about babies. After the pic that she's screaming in, Jordan said, "Get it off me!".... Such a boy. Caris on the other hand has the magic baby touch as you can see. And here is a pic of Lily laughing when Meme was blowing on her belly.

Dimple Twins

Lily's not showing hers here, but she's got cute dimples to match Aunt Kristi's.

Oregon trip

This weekend we went to Oregon to visit with Shane's grandparents. Lily met her Great-Grandma Ginger and Great-Grandpa John. We also got to hang out with Mom and Dad Taylor and E.T. We enjoyed the beautiful scenery, the trips down memory lane to the days at the farm in Imnaha (I think that's how you spell it), several rallies of ping pong, and lots of yummy food courtesy of the grandparents. Lily enjoyed Grandma Toria's "airplane hold" and special songs. She also got tons of cute clothes from Grandma Toria and Grandpa Eric on a shopping trip to Fred Meyer. She had fun cooing and laughing at her Uncle E.T. And she was a phenomenal traveler. One of the flight attendants said Lily should be the baby trainer that teaches other babies how to ride cheerfully on a plane. God definately answered the many prayers for a safe and fun filled vacation.

4 months!

At 4 months old, Lily's interests include rolling (this morning I laid her on the bed and she rolled clear over to the other side), babbling, cooing, growling, wooing her parents with her cute dimples when she smiles, and playing with her feet (which she has just recently discovered).
