Home again, home again

Lilah and I flew home to NC on Saturday. It was a pretty good trip and our first soon to be round trip without Jonas coming too. I was a little worried about flying semi-solo, but Lilah was great. She smiled at everyone all day, even though she didn't nap very well. What a sweet baby. Katie Madding Buckingham came to visit with her two little ones early Monday, and we had a great time playing with the little ones and catching up. It is amazing how fast they are growing. Lilah and Eve were able to interact a little more than last time, although I think Eve still thinks Lilah is pretty boring. She is a baby on the move and Lilah certainly is not more interesting than all the cool things she can now get into. Monday afternoon Jonas' mom joined us for a visit just before Katie returned home. We had a great time playing with Mimi and Lilah got caught up with some missed kisses over the last few months.  Marianne was able to stay the night, so we got to hang out for half of Tuesday too. It was a great visit and we are sad to see her go.

Lilah has started rocking her head side to side, sort of like she is dancing. Pretty funny to see, and I think she enjoys it too. Sometimes she involves her chest too, and she does this whole body wave, and then smiles. Too cute.

Tonight we are trying to rest up before the true chaos arrives tomorrow. My sister Katie is picking up my brother John and his family from the airport.  I am very excited, especially since Lilah can play with her cousin Guillaume again. They were two and five months at Christmas, and now they are coming back at six and nine months - should be a huge difference. It will be neat to see them together. I am very excited, but also very tired, so for tonight, it's time for bed!
