for her dad

Lilah got to watch a little bit of the first Husker game of the season before she had to go to bed. Her dad said she enjoyed it. She looked cute anyway in her pink Husker outfit :)





Also, an update on Lilah at 9 months after her doctor check-up today. She weighs 16.5 pounds (6th percentile), is 27 1/4 inches tall (32nd percentile) and her head is 45 cm around (75th percentile). All is well and so far we've avoided the flu that's going around our neighborhood so here's hoping we all stay healthy!

9 months old

Lilah is now 9 months old! She's crawling like a champ, pulling up to a stand with ease and has two little bottom teeth coming in. Oh, and she's a pretty little lady ...

dress of the day

We had so much fun today! A Friday and Jeff and I both had the day off. I started and made the dress Lilah is wearing today. It was a women's turtleneck shirt. I made it a bit too long so gathered up the sides with "roses" which look more like fabric wads due to my poor sewing skills but, oh well. I also put mini roses by the straps, which I need to redo because they're a bit too long so I think I'll cross them in back and they'll be perfect.
