Lilly and Turtle at 5 Months

Our little girl continues to grow like crazy. It's amazing to see how much she changes from month to month. She is getting really good at pushing herself up when laying on her stomach however she doesn't like to spend too much time like that. She is happiest first thing in the morning. We are greeted with a giant smile when we get her up every morning. She continues to giggle more and more. She can't sit on her own yet, but she does great sitting up with our support. She likes to hang out in the bumbo seat and baby jumper at daycare.

Washburn Homecoming

Last weekend we made the trek up to Washburn for the Washburn Homecoming. It's kind of like an all town reunion that takes place every 5 years. We had a great time wandering around Washburn, watching the parade, hanging out with Grandma and Grandpa, meeting up with some friends, watching the fireworks, and going out in the boat.

We exhausted Lilly by keeping her out and about and making her stay up past her bedtime. She did great but I think she was ready to come home by the end of the weekend. I'm sure she was looking forward to going back to daycare so she could get some rest.

We had a great time with Grandma and Grandpa having fun in the sun.

Beautiful evening walk down to the lake 
Great to see some good friends
Not a huge fan of the life jacket 
Sucking on the shoulder strap is very calming 
First time in Lake Superior was a shock
Once you get used to the water it was fun
Loving the water 
Flying fun with Daddy
Every trip through Mercer deserves a stop by the loon
