lili's head circumference is 16" now (it was 12 at birth)
she is about 25 1/2 inches long
and she weighs about 15 pounds.

so for head circumference and weight she is in the 50th percentile
and for height she is in the 10th

she is showing less interest in her pacifier now, prefering to chew on her hand :)
she is rolling over from her back to her stomache regularily now.

i've met with the early intervention people twice now with her and so far they haven't shown me anything i haven't already been doing or told me anything i don't already know.
but i'll just keep doing it because i'm curious to see if it will ever become something more informative.
we'll see...

spring has sprung here and it's such a relief.
we went for a long walk today by the river with lili in the new stroller and then had a yummy greek salad.

we did atkins for 5 days and then lost our minds.
so we are just going to go more the "sugarbusters" route.
that is, eating only complex carbs and lean meat.
i'm not much of a sweets person anyway, so that is not hard for me.
so things like whole grain, brown rice, high fiber veggies and fruits.
i guess no beets, bananas or pineapple.

my mom has the sugar busters book and i'll read that when i get it from her.

i think i've lost a few pounds but i'm not sure how many because i didn't weigh myself before i started this diet.
but this morning i weighed 120, and i'd like to weigh 107.
my measurements are 37-30-38 (long long ago i used to be 32-24-32)
but if i can get to 110 by my wedding (june 20th) i'll be fine with that.
i think that might be doable.

i still haven't gotten my dress (i'm dreading trying any on right now)
and we haven't gotten the rings.
and we haven't even sent out the invitations yet...we are so bad.

we have to hop to it in a major way!

i was in the park the other day with lili when another mom came up to me with ehr baby in a stroller , too.
we found out that our children were both 9 months old.
then she let her child out of the stroller and she got up and WALKED.
my eyes were as big as saucers.

lili is just finally rolling!

what differences!

i'm wondering if i should even be a member of my due date community anymore.
the milestones other children are hitting now and not even in lili's realm at the moment.
so when people update with their children....it's nothing i am going through or can relate to yet.

all the other chiildren are sitting up at the table and eating food, cutting teeth and almost walking and pretty much ready to go out and get a job!

my little bean is still my little toothless snuggle bug and drinks her bottle and rolls around and shakes her rattles :)
