Nearly mobile

Lilly has discovered standing. Now we are unable to let her go too long without grabbing on to some surface to "be a big girl". She just smiles the biggest grin when she is standing and we know it is very hard work. But she is bound and determined to practice whenever she can. And those little stick legs are strong.

She also trying to crawl. She has the hands and knees rock down, and can move backwards pretty quickly across a wood floor. In a matter of days, she'll be emptying out all our cupboards. You'll probably never hear from us again, because we'll be chasing Miss Lillian. Nice knowing you!


All this work is exhausting for her. Molly shares the sentiment. After our trip to California, the two of them spent the entire day lounging around together. Good dog!
But in no time, back to standing. This was on her 8 month "birthday".
We celebrated by letting her wear the slippers Aunt Judy bought! So cute!

Here's a message from Lillian as she loves to type: n hb v vg csrdc xcx (she can say that in four different languages)

I haven't been able to check the blog since the wedding- more than 2 weeks. Wow! She's really enjoying being on her feet. That girl is so full of herself that you can't help but laugh with her. What a cutie!
