Lilly is a very happy baby.  Today she squealed with delight for the first time.  Bill laid her down on the bed and was dancing to the radio for her and she absolutely loved it!  Of course she waited until her daddy was home for her first squeal.  🙂

She is almost 10 weeks old now and is changing every day.  She is able to entertain herself for longer periods of time, especially when laying on her tummy time mat or in her crib staring at her mobile.  Lilly has discovered her hands and feet and makes bubbles with her mouth.  She loves looking at her feet and sucking her right hand, and holds her hands together in front of her.  Occasionally she’ll find her thumb.  She is also ‘talking’ to us a lot more and makes specific noises to tell us when she is hungry, frustrated, excited, or tired.

Lilly usually goes to bed around 8:30 and is up at 7 – waking up 2 or 3 times a night.  She can go as much as 5 hours in the night if she has a good feed.  We are still struggling with feeding problems.  For the last 4 weeks she has gotten really fussy when eating from the bottle.  This happens about 3 times a week – the other days she is a perfect angel…still trying to figure that one out!  We are pretty sure that it has to do with her temperment as well as developmental changes.

We will post more photos and videos soon!
