Cry Me A River

We have reached the 15 month mark, and have many teeth and molars to show for it!! Lily has essentially given up crawling, and has now begun to run and take quite a few spills - fortunately no major injuries to date.

Friday began with a shopping mall expedition with Miss Michelle and Cole and Hayley to see Santa Claus - let's just say that Lily was not estatic to see St. Nick although we did manage to get a picture with mom to document the occasion - she was very happy to wave goodbye to Santa.

Friday afternoon we went to her 15 month check-up and unlike her 1 year check-up she had no interest in chatting with Dr. G. or any of the nurses. She had her last shots until she is 4 so she is relieved about that. She weighed in at 24 pounds, 4 oz, and 30 3/4 inches. We don't go back again until 20 months so Lily has 5 months to prepare herself mentally.

Saturday night we went to see the Lights on the Bay - a light show at Sandy Spring Park by the Bay Bridge in Annapolis. Lily was excited to see the lights but once Santa Claus approached our car window to offer a candy cane prior to our entry into the park, she was somewhat traumatized and did not enjoy the spectacle as much as her parents - we suspect she will enjoy it a lot more next year!

The rest of the weekend was just spent relaxing, preparing for the holiday craziness coming up and our trip to FL. Hopefully we will get in a post before we jet off to FL, until then enjoy the few pics we took.

"How was work, Dad?"


"Hmmm...what can I eat now?"
