Today was beautiful. We spent the day outside and had a blast. Check out the eighth month folder on flickr to see what we have been up to!

Well, the website is slowly getting a new look and we are finally getting back to taking pictures and video. Trust me, you wouldn’t have wanted to see what was going on last week! Yuck!

In the mean time, we are moving Lily’s pictures to Flickr, which will eventually be embedded in the site. For now, you can see what we have been working on at http://www.flickr.com/photos/loraayn/collections/.
Be sure to check out the First Year collection where I have added some new eighth month pictures!

Other than that we have been hanging out, playing and getting one step closer to truly crawling. Lily is moving around like crazy but not quite ready to move with her stomach off the ground.

Summer is right around the corner, and we (read: I) can’t wait! Trips to the zoo, afternoon walks and lots of pool time is what I am anxiously waiting for! It can’t come quick enough.

While Mommy despaired over lack of the internet this week, Lily turned 7 months old!

It has been a busy week for Lily, it is like her motion switch turned on because she has mastered three skills this week.

Lily learned to sit up by herself from a laying down position. She can now army crawl to get to toys or her new favorite food, Puffs cereal! And she now is pulling herself up on the couch and her piano. This last one is pretty scary to watch, but she gets pretty mad if you try to stop her.

Check back later today for a new video and a new 8th month folder!
