Bottle Service

On Thursday night Lillian had her first bottle.  It usually takes babies a few tries to figure out bottles, but she understood immediately how to do it and drank the whole thing.  She even grabbed the bottle with both hands as she was eating to keep me from taking it away.  This is good news because it means Emily can finally get a break from feeding her every 2 hours and get more sleep.

Gaga and Papa meet Lillian (Oct 31 - Nov 5)

Gaga and Papa came into town to meet Lillian at the end of October, when she was just over a week old.  In addition to getting to meet their new granddaughter and spend time with their favorite grandson, they were also a huge help to a very tired Mama and Daddy - cooking, cleaning, shopping, and playing with the kids.   During their visit they met Bat-Simon and went with him to a Halloween event, played with football men, and of course lots of backyard baseball with Simon.  It was a great visit and we're looking forward to seeing them again soon.

Many more pics (and a video of the baseball game) after the jump...

Ladies Night Out

Auntie Colleen, Lillian and I went out for lunch on Friday and then out for our first (of many) Ladies Night and had an interesting Chinese dinner. Lillian slept through both meals.
