That all being said I cannot believe we are quickly approaching her 4 month bday. I am telling you... after she hit 2 months it seems like time is just flying by. Part of me wants it to slow down but the other part of me is excited with all of the new stuff that Lily is learning and picking up on and makes me ready for each new day. It has been a rough few weeks though. Long story short I got sick 2 weeks ago (upper respiratory infection, double ear infection, and strep). I had it for a week and just when I was getting over it and felt lucky Lily hadn't caught it... she caught the strep part. That was the most heart breaking 3 days. She wouldn't even eat! Luckily after getting a shot and being on antibiotics for a few days she went back to normal and started feeling better. The only bad part is 2 days after she finally started to feel better I wound up back in the hospital with strep again. The good part is Lily has to remain on her medicine for 10 days so I think her still taking that helped protect her from getting it back again from me!
She is such a little sweetheart and joy in our lives. Her personality is becoming more and more present every day. She smiles most of the time except for when she gets really tired in the evening and I have even heard a few giggles. She is starting to really study things as well. She will look at something for 20 minutes straight and fling her arm out to touch it. And she is really starting to study people and know who is who. I can definitely tell that she knows her momma and daddy. Her smile can light up the entire room when either of us walks into her line of sight and I cannot tell you how special that makes me feel! I know all babies are that way with their parents but still... you can be having the worst day and her smile just wipes everything away. She is 16 weeks old as of yesterday, once again some would consider that 4 months old however I am going by the 20th of each month which doesn't until a week and a few days from now.
Other than her Josh and I are doing really well. He has every other weekend off from work we try to have a date night every 2 weeks or at least invite friends over to hang out after she has gone to bed. 2 weeks ago we went and ate pizza and went bowling on Friday with some friends and then that Sunday after she fell asleep Lora and Ben babysat her and we went to a movie. Then we worked the next weekend but this weekend we had my nephew Tony's bday part yesterday, and then Wes and Ashton came over and we played cards all night. Things really feel like they are starting to go back to normal... or the new version of normal and that is nice. Lily is finally old enough that we can take her to get togethers and she has a good time. I start Gfit with Ashton tomorrow. I am very excited and nervous for that but its been a long time coming. All of the women that work at the office is actually doing it, however, Ashton and I are doing it at the same location and time so be looking for updates on that! Last but not least I would like to say how proud I am of Josh. He got of his year probation at the police department last week! It is hard to believe it has already been a year! Speaking of year anniversary's... it will have been a year on Tuesday since I found out I was pregnant... wow.
I hope all of you have a wonderful week! I will try my best to post next weekend if I find a nice quiet moment to do so! But for now a few Lily photos!
Happy baby in the morning! 15 weeks
On the way to Day Care
