Not quite a pill box hat

Lillie likes to wear random things as hat.  When I bought her shoes, I kept the boxes for her to play with and now she has taken to wearing them on her head.

Lillie likes the Blues

Eric noticed that Lillie liked uptempo songs to dance to, so he decided that was a good enough reason to pick up a Stevie Ray Vaughan music book (like he really needed much of a reason).  He was trying it out this evening and I got video that shows Lillie whole heartedly approves.  She shuffles and sings along!  I think Eric is going to have a great time introducing her to all sorts of music!

DJ Lillie

I was not only able to get Lillie doing some  dancing on video, but then she started DJing. Enjoy!

Engineer Lillie

Eric and I have been having fun building things with Lillie's Mega Blocks.  Normally, Lillie likes tearing everything apart, but lately she has taken an interesting in trying to put the blocks together.  I got a video of her figuring out how to put some blocks together.  It has been really fun watching her figure everything out!

Growth charts

When Lillie was born, I downloaded an app that allows me to track all sorts of things like feedings, sleep times, doctor appointments, vaccines and growth. The app also puts the growth measurements in a chart with the different percentiles shown. The percentages are slightly different from what the doctor has, but it is cool to see Lillie's progression.

Can you guess by looking at the weight chart when Lillie became mobile? 

Lillie's first birthday party

Lillie had a wonderful first birthday!  She wants to make sure everyone knows how much she likes the presents, so she played with every single one of them before she went to bed tonight.  That was a lot of presents to interact with!  She loved the smash cake and made it live up to it's name.  She even took time in the middle of eating her cake to show everyone her "where's your head" trick.  Needless to say nothing could have gone better!
