Where does the time go?!

Today found Mike and I talking about how quickly the time seems to go by these days. We were at Mercy hospital today visiting Mike's grandpa and we walked through the Birthplace in order to get to our car and it was kind of bittersweet. In one way it felt like yesterday that we were there, but at the same time it felt like it was a really long time ago...almost surreal. We are so busy being a Mommy and Daddy that the time really does seem to slip away we know now the true meaning of "don't blink!"

You are probably wondering about Mike's grandpa. We got a call on Saturday that Wayne was being admitted to the hospital, so we headed down to Mercy and spent a few hours making sure that grandpa had his fill of Lila love and made sure that he was cozy for the night. He was having some trouble breathing, so they wanted to keep him for a few days for observation making sure that everything is perfectly fine before letting him go. We went back up to visit him today to give him some company and the doctor came into visit and told us she recommended a cardiologist come up to take a peek to rule out heart issues. He is feeling better and is in good spirits, we are SO thankful for that! We love you Granpda Wayne...our thoughts and prayers are with you and we are hoping you get to go home very soon!

On Tuesday I took Lila into the doctor to check on some sniffles she was having. She checked out great at the doctor, just some congestion and possibly the start of a virus. They sent us home telling us to keep using saline drops to loosen up the crud and use a cool-mist humidifier while she sleeps (she is feeling much better now). We also got her weighed...she is 11 lbs. 7 ozs. getting bigger by the day! We really need to measure her, she is getting longer and longer by the minute. We had to move her into her 3 month clothing to accomodate her length and they are still rather roomy in width, so it will be interesting to see how long it takes her to fill them out.

The weather here was pretty cruddy all weekend which kept us inside most of the time, but this afternoon the sun decided to come out. We spent some time in the backyard throwing the frisbee for the dogs and giving the pups a bath...they both do really well with their baths and enjoyed getting all brushed out and cleaned up!

Speaking of the dogs...they never stray too far from where their little sister is! They do love her so much!

We also took some time today to hang up some pictures around the house. We got some custom frames put together for Lila's first pictures and we were really excited about the one we got for her nursery. We have been meaning to get the pictures hung up for a couple of weeks now...again where does the time go?

Little Miss Lila was 13 weeks on Saturday! As I said above, she is growing like a weed and making advancements everyday. She is smiling and interacting every chance she gets and loves playing with toys that light up. She is breaking our hearts a little as she gets older because she really enjoys her time on the floor playing, she doesn't want to be held as much and she lets you know that.

Happy little girl!

Mommy & Me!

Onto another busy week, I truly do look forward to working from home on Wednesday's so I get a little one on one time with Lila during the week. As much as I would like for her to go full time to her primary daycare, I will miss being able to spend that time with her. It is funny how things work out, it was viewed as an inconvenience at first, but considering I will never get this time back I really have come to understand that it is a huge blessing!
