Thanksgiving Day at the farm

Lyla had her first Thanksgiving this weekend. Yesterday we had our dinner, it was a small one but really nice. Greg actually made dinner which made it even more enjoyable. Lyla and I went to church while he stayed home and cooked the turkey...on the BBQ! lol

When we got home my sister Pam came over to enjoy dinner with us and then stayed for a visit. It was really nice to spend some time together.

Today, Greg and Lyla and I went to RiverBreeze farm, with the intention of picking a pumpkin at the u pic pumpkin patch. But after walking through the corn maze and looking at the animals Lyla wasn't in the mood to wait in line for the tractor ride that would take us there. So we just went up to the market and bought a couple of pumpkins and some yummy brownies and headed home.

Of course I forgot the camera in the car while we were at the farm so we just took a couple of pics. So cute in her new vest room from her auntie Karen.

4 Month appointment

We headed in for our 4 month appointment yesterday, Lyla did great. She is weighing 12lbs 4 oz and is 60 cm long. So she grew 5cm and gained almost 2.5 lbs since her 2 month. The needles were hard on her, but as soon as I got her in her sling she stopped crying. Last night she was pretty cranky. She did wake up at 12 but then slept until 7:30 so that was great.

Today she has been pretty whiny, but is right now having her second nap, so hopefully she'll feel better after that.

I am truly falling more and more in love with this girl every day, she is so amazing. I need to do a quick recap!

-Starting at 3 months she LOVES standing! She just needs her hands held
-She's rolling front to back, she started that at Kindermusik class
-She had her real first laugh last week, it was hilarious, I screamed and that scared her, lol
-She's been sleeping pretty great from the beginning, but about 2 weeks ago we went home to PEI and she was really tired so I put her to bed at 8:30 and she slept until 7:30, the next night it was 8:30-8:30! Now she almost always sleeps 10+ hours, she's been fantastic!

She is such a cutie, I need to get some new pics done very soon!
