Lily is 6 Months old!

Hello to all my friends and family!

My mummy says I'm 6 months old now! I'm not quite sure what that means but I think I am getting bigger every day! I know this coz when I stretch my legs out in bed I touch the end! So, now when we go out I have to use what mum calls the port-a-cot. It is a lot bigger than my bassinet and I like it. I am very proud of myself coz I can try and stand up with mummy or daddy's help. I laugh and look over where my clothes hang....and it's funny coz there is another baby looking at me! I laugh at that other baby and she laughs back. I'm not sure how it works but I look there and Mummy is with that baby but she is holding me too! She is a very clever lady!

Mummy and Daddy gave me some funny stuff in my mouth the other day. I didn't really like it at first but now I think it's alright! Rice cereal, mummy calls it. I have tried avocado and pumpkin too. But I'm still getting used to it. I like to grab the spoon and rub the food all over my face. Even sometimes in my hair! But then I have a lovely bath. I like bath time.

Mummy and Daddy took me to Grandma and Da's farm the other week and there was another baby there named Faith Lesley Jones. Daddy said that she is my new cousin. Can you see me, Faith and Carter, her big brother in the photos? Aunty Nellie gave me big cuddles. I like her. Carter gave me cuddles too. I like to watch him play. He is very fast and makes me laugh! We went out to lunch with Grandma and Da. The lady working there kept looking at me and telling me how gorgeous I was. That made my Mummy and Daddy smile!

My Great Aunty Debbie, Great Uncle Graeme and cousin Jonathon came to visit us too. That day I was sucking on a rusk. It was yummy! They are nice people and Aunty Debbie looks a bit like my Nana. I miss my Nana and Pa. But Mummy says they will be coming to visit us at Christmas. I hope that's not too far away.

We moved house too! I love my new room! It is so big and nice. I got to see Aunty Katie, Uncle Ross and Uncle Ben too coz they came to help. Aunty Katie looked after me while Mummy and Daddy were busy. Thank you Aunty Katie and thank you Uncle Ben and Uncle Ross for helping us move. Daddy says we will have an even nicer home soon. Mummy said we are building it. I wonder what that means!?!?

I wore my first dress the other day to church. It was red and Mummy said I looked pretty! I like going to church. There are lots of nice people there and I like the singing. Mummy sings to me all the time and some of the songs I think are from church coz we always sing about my friend, Jesus. He takes care of me.

Mummy and I have a lovely time at home. She make me laugh and smile and takes good care of me. My Daddy is great too! He makes sure I'm ok before he leaves to go to work. He even changes my nappy and then brings me into Mummy so I can have some milk. I love my Daddy! I like to see Mummy and Daddy's faces and I smile and talk to them saying "I love you". Mummy says my laugh is the best noise in the world! Daddy says that my smile keeps him going thru the day. My Mummy and Daddy are the best!

Well, that's it for now. But I will let you know more very soon. Many cuddles and kisses to all!

Love Lily
