Little Girl in a Big World

Lilian is upset that we have to get rid of our bed spread. Which by the way no one has claimed.

Mmm...Squash

Well, I guess not Mmm...but we're working on it! I'm slowly mixing it with cereal, but if it gets too concentrated I get spitting and tears. Maybe she'll like carrots better.

Nice Posture

Look who's sitting up!!

I can't believe it! It seems too soon! But, it's true. Lilian is now able to sit up on her own. She does still take her spills, but she is getting better at it with each and every day. Next step: crawling. I hope she can wait until we move. Things are scattered everywhere right now--there is way too much she can get into!

Strawberry Queen

The annual Ponchatoula Strawberry Festival was this past weekend. We all went and met Justin's family there. For those of you not from Louisiana, this is a festival where you can get some great cajun food, anything made with strawberries (and I mean anything from strawberry shortcakes to deep fried strawberries), and flats of the best strawberries in the entire world. You may think, "Ouuu, a Strawberry Festival in Small Town, Louisiana. I bet all 15 of you had a blast." But, let me tell you, thousands of people come out for this Festival. I would even go as far as to say that this event is a Big Deal. Along with the food, there are rides, arts & crafts, music, games, a parade, competitions, and probably tons of other things I don't even know about. As you can see, even our little blue-eyed girl was excited about it!

In fact, she had so much strawberry fun, she concked out on the walk back to the car.

After the festival, we went to Middendorf's in Manchac to eat a little more because that's the proper thing to do. This is Daddy and Lilian outside of the restaurant.

Laney and Lilian were so excited to spend some more time together!

So, all in all, it was a nice festival. The strawberries were not quite as sweet as years past, but the weather was great and the company was even better! It was nice "Louisiana fun."
