A letter to Lily

Hello Baby girl. I wanted to write you a letter to let you know how much daddy and I love you.. Tonight we went to eat with Granma at Chili's and we had a great time. We went to go see granpa after we ate and you spit up on him for the first time. It was quite funny. You wore the dress that "Great Aunt Shelia" gave you for one of your showers. Last night we went with your aunt mandy. We ate Mexican and then went to her house to put together stuff for Granma & Granpas 40th Wedding anniversary. This past week has been a tough one at times with your mommy trying to work. You have taken at least 2 and half hour naps during the day where I can bust my little behind to get some work done. Daddy has 2 more days of school left and he will be home for the summer so he can help out with you so I can work. Mommy does not have days off besides holidays year round so it will be nice for him to help me out. I love being home with you everyday. I love the fact that I do not have to put you in daycare or have someone watch you. I am going to start masters classes in the fall to become a teacher too like daddy so when you start school and if mommy wants to be a teacher then she can so we can have our summers off and long holidays together.

You have been doing good sleeping. Still not sleeping trough the night but you sleep about 8 hours and then wake and sleep 2 more... cant you just sleep the extra two :) I checked on you tongith which you are already tossing and turning in your bed. I am going to have to drop your bed down soon. I checked on you though and you were on your side with your left arm under your head. "You sleep like mommy" I get scared every now and then because you do toss and turn and some times I come in and you are facing the mattress so I have to adjust your head.
I dont make you go to bed at a certain time. Our routine though is usually around your bed time we come up in mommy and daddys bedroom and I sit in the rocking chair and feed you and then usually put you down. You go for your 4 month shots next wednesday and I am not looking forward to it. Granma is going to come with me this time because your dad will be in carrollton for his SPED masters class. You know he is doing really good in his classes making over 97 every time.
I think about how fast you are growing and all the new things that you do. You love the dogs. You smile at them every time you see them esp Milo. You have pulled his little ears and gosh he looks so scared. We are trying to let you pet him though & he does really good. You have somehow discovered you have a bottom lip. The past two days you have been sucking on your bottom lip and constantly licking it. I dont know if you are teething or not but gosh you sure do go to town on that lip. You do have a temper... lol if you are not happy to begin with and you have a blanky or a toy and I have to change you, etc and I take it away you scream..... so I have to give it back to you. You love your pooh bear... You smile at him and reach for him each time daddy and I show him to you.... and then you try to eat his face.... You type on the keys at my desk... I sent an email to customer service the other day for my work and there was (dhdjfhauhsjdhau) I told them sorry that you were learning to type. There are so many things that you are doing now that just amaze me and I know only things get more interesting and more memorable as you get older. I love you soooo much and I am soo glad that you are a healthy little girl. I will write you another letter soon as I told you I am going to print these off when you are one so that you have this when you get older. nite nite baby girl......
