Week 32, Sep. 7-13
Lily's been coughing and sneezing a lot this week, especially at night.
The pediatrician gave us a prescription (pseudoephedrine plus an antihistamine)
and that seems to be helping. She slept well Monday night and Tuesday night.

Lily still zooms around in her walker, and we've started playing a
couple games. This one is "Chase Daddy." As you can see in the
fourth picture, this game gets Daddy pretty tired!

When she's not in the walker, she's crawling or lifting herself up using anything
(or anyone) as a stepping stool. Here she's climbing up a baby gate box.
She stands really well when she has something solid to hold on to.

She discovered the little springs sticking out of walls and doors to
stop the doors from slamming, and had fun hitting them while she was
crawling around.

All that moving around is tiring! Here's Lily sleeping on Mommy.

Before you think Michelle has completely become a different person,
here she is posing a sleeping baby's arms and legs for her own amusement!
Hey, you woke her up!!

Here are some outfits from this week.

We've started giving her teething biscuits. I no longer have any idea
when she's teething, because she's had symptoms of it for months, but
no teeth are out yet.

Despite her having no teeth yet and not being old enough for a Twizzler, we let her
chew on one a little! She didn't like it anyway.

This week was our 11-year wedding anniversary (Sept. 10th). My parents sent flowers.
We didn't do much to celebrate, and almost forgot about it!

The Blackwells headed home on Monday, after almost two weeks here. Having four people
to handle one baby is a great ratio!! Now it's just the two of us again.

We have very few pictures of ourselves with Lily. Michelle's parents took this one right
before they left.
