Babbling Baby

Lily started babbling a ton today, for the first time. She's always made a lot of noise... but now we can't get her to stop! In fact, she'll babble for a bit, stick her binky in her mouth, then pull it out because she has more to say!



I'm not sure the people at the Indian restaurant liked it too much... but we sure did love it!

Riding Bikes...

Before Lily was born... we bought her a really cool bike seat. Trent & I love to ride bikes together... so we figured that she'd enjoy coming along for the ride.

A couple weeks ago Trent pulled our bikes down from the hooks where they are carefully hung on the roof of our garage. I'm embarrassed to say that this was the first time I've used my bike at all since Lily joined us. Luckily, I still remembered how to ride. I guess that's why people have coined the phrase... "it's like riding a bike". Apparently that's not something you are supposed to quickly forget how to do.


Lily loved the ride!! It wasn't until after we were finished that I realized we should really have a bike helmet for her. After spending over an hour searching for infant helmets, I discovered they don't make them for babies her size. Apparently it's not safe to take a baby on a bike until they're at least a year old. How disappointing! I guess we'll wait a while for her next ride. I imagine, by then, she'll like it even more.
