Lily Fun!

Something amazing happened... Lily got her first TWO teeth! The first started popping up last Monday, and by Tuesday morning, we had another one! I can't believe how fast my baby is growing up. She wasn't too fussy either, just a little Tylenol and a bit of chewing on Sophie and she stayed pretty pleasant. I can't get a good picture, but I'll keep trying!

She also learned how to blow raspberries at the beginning of last week. Below is a hysterical video of this, and if you notice, she DOES NOT like me to laugh at her. She gives me the evil eye every time I start to giggle. She does this pretty consistently. She doesn't mind if her daddy laughs, just mommy. I have no idea what this means...




I just started my provisional year of Junior League and we had our first meeting last week. Our AMAZING program is called FIT.

This is what it is all about:

The FIT Program (which stands for Food In Tummies) is a new project of The Junior League of Austin (JLA) and a unique program designed to provide weekend nourishment to children grades K-5 who qualify for the National School Lunch Program (NSLP – which provides free and reduced meals). FIT, managed by the JLA in collaboration with the Del Valle Independent School District, aims to help these hungry children by delivering backpacks of nutritious food each week to a Title 1 elementary school during the 2009-2010 school year.

I'm so excited about having an outlet to volunteer and get more involved in the community. It's food for my soul and I hope that Lily will feel the same way when she gets older.

Lita is leaving us for 10 DAYS to cruise. I don't know what I am going to do... I know, I know. I am spoiled by Lita, and so is Lily. But, we love her company and we will be counting down the days until she returns.
