6 weeks

Thanks to everyone who posted a comment...I encourage you to keep doing so and to the others out there who didn't:)

6 weeks today! I can't believe it! My Dr told me that the first six weeks you are still trying to figure so much out and the next six weeks you enjoy all of the new and exciting things. I agree with that. All ready it seems like Lily is more alert and interactive every day. I love it!!!

Recap: Wednesday night we went to kickball. It was such a beautiful day and a great night to attend the game. Yep - our team won! They are #1!!! It was so nice to see a bunch of my friends again.

Thursday morning Dan came over. The 3 of us went garage sale-ing all day. It was so much fun. Again a BEAUTIFUL day out side. Dan loves to garage sale even more than I do - he is also great at getting the deals. Everyone enjoys talking to him and then when he tries to make the better offer, they always say 'For you...Anything!' It is great! I think I enjoy it so much because I love to shop, be outside, get a great walk and look at other peoples junk! haha!

Friday Lily and I went on a nice long walk with Jess and her son Ben. Along the way I was pooped on by a bird!!! Ha-ha! We all got a good laugh and hopefully I will have some good luck coming my way because of it!

This morning Colie and I made our way to the Minneapolis Farmers Market! I had a Brat for breakfast! Yum! We will go again. It was very fun and the longest amount of time I have had away from my Nugget. I missed her - but I think it was good for us all to take this time. She and Mickey enjoyed the alone time.

This afternoon we have a pig roast at the Tasto's and tomorrow is Zoe's dance recital! I can't wait to see her on stage!!!

Have a great weekend!

HAPPY MOTHERS DAY

Happy Mothers Day
to all of the mothers reading!
You are all appreciated:)

We had a very nice mothers day. We started with the Race for the Cure. We participate every year with a large group. Breast Cancer Awareness is very important to me as it has affected too many that I love - Grandma Alice, Aunt Virgie, Aunt Rita and Karen Zweber. It also took the life of a dear friend, 2nd mother to me, wonderful neighbor, my mom's best friend ~ Paulette Cloutier. We love and miss her more than I can even explain. That is why the walk is so important to all of us.

After the walk we went to Prior Lake to celebrate Mother's Day with the Friedges Family. Lily loved meeting so many family members this weekend.

Then we made it home for some much needed R&R! :)

Saturday

Saturday we made our way down to New Ulm to visit Grandpa Gary and Grandma Ann. We wanted to celebrate Mother's Day with Ann and Grandma Ad. It was great to see them and all of the other Wiltscheck's who stopped over for a visit. It was so nice. This was the longest amount of time that Lily spent in the car. She did great!

Update

Great news - I have been informed that the request of postponement for jury duty has been granted! I will have to serve jury duty, but not until August now:) whew! More time with my Lil Love Bug!

Today Lily and I spent the day garage sale-ing. She did great! We were out at 8 a.m. for the big Woodbury sales and lasted until 4!!! The Woodbury sales are AWESOME and CRAZY...it is like the day after Thanksgiving (which I LOVE.) We were able to have a couple of feedings in the backseat of the car (thanks to the Peanut Shell were still were private.) Colie met up with us around noon and we all had lunch with Mickey while we were in the area. It was a lot of fun. I think Lily enjoyed the fresh air and the longest stroller ride ever. I got some much needed exercise in and enjoyed some good deals.

Our Big Friday night plans include a pizza, Lily's bath time and a movie!
Have a great weekend.

Long & Lean

Lily had a one month check up today. She is now weighing 9 lbs & 3 oz. She is 22 1/4 inches tall. The Dr. said that she is tall and skinny. She MUST get that from me! hahaaa...don't I wish. Anyway - I hope that stays with her forever:)

Lily and I went to visit dad. Our family friend Allan was there and the Zweber girls stopped over too. It was a nice afternoon.Here are a couple of pictures from the day.
Virgie - Lily is still too small for the glasses you got her, but they seem to work for Ellie just fine:)

On a side note, I think today was the last day for the ruffle butt outfit (one of my favorites.) So sad:( Those long legs are getting too long for her NB size. Movin' On Up...
