Save me

The week started out with Lily looking like she participated in a boxing match. In fact, as she explains to anyone who asks, Gavin ran into her eye with a truck. Fortunately, the truck landed below her eye, but it just spread to the rest of her eye. She applied a little ice and managed to make a quick recovery. We finished off the week of school with a wearing of big girl underwear. She is doing pretty well in that department with only a few accidents, and is only wearing a diaper/pull-up at night. She is extremely proud of her big girl underwear and to date prefers Dora, but at times requests Elmo or Curious George.

Friday, Lily and Mom trekked down to Richmond to see one of mom's college friends Erica and children Riley (5) and Reid (2 1/2). Lily had tons of fun riding bikes with Riley and Reid, and especially loved following Riley around - Riley even helped Lily use the potty and tie her shoes!

Saturday, we visited with Grandma Gail, Grandpa Tom, and Aunt Tracy who is in town for a visit. As it was a nice day, Lil got in some tricycle riding and playground time. Sunday, Lily visited with Grandma Phyllis and Grandpa Maurice. She played some games and went on a walk, while Mom and Dad ran some errands.

Lily is feeling a little under the weather right now - probably too much action this weekend - but we are hoping for a quick recovery! See you next week!
