Louisville Trip


Jarod and I needed a break after a long and stressful couple of weeks. Our good friends Amy and Michael helped plan a spontaneous trip to Louisville, KY! We had a blast. They surprised us with a suite at the Galt House overlooking the river and we went out to dinner and met a few of my girlfriends from IU afterwards. Lilly stayed with Nonna and Grandpa and was spoiled as usual! Aunt Cas and Uncle Joey also helped babysit and I hear that Lilly gave Aunt Cas a run for her money during dinner!

Lilly is crawling very well now. It is throwing our dog, Annie, off. She isn't sure what to think of Lilly crawling right up to her. We are amazed and just stare at her in disbelief that our little girl is now on the move. It seems like yesterday that she was welcomed into this world. She loves reading books and that is her favorite thing to do at anytime of the day. She is a pro at waving now as well. If you're lucky, she'll wave at you with both hands. It's too cute! She hasn't cut a single tooth yet but the poor thing is ever so close. The teething episodes are becoming more and more painful for her and are keeping her awake at night. We feel so bad for her and hope that she will have some relief soon.

She goes for her 9 months check up in a few weeks and then before we know it, we will be celebrating her 1st Christmas. Mommy has already ordered her stocking and has been trying to find the perfect Christmas dress! The Holidays will have a new meaning for our family this year.

Until next time, love to all!
