Lila is 41 weeks old today!
It was a beautiful day here today so we were able to enjoy some time on the front porch this morning.

Lila eats oatmeal for breakfast every day at daycare. On the weekends I make us all a big crock pot of steel cut oats, which Lila loves. One thing, though - she won't let me feed it to her on a spoon. She insists on eating it with her fingers. I kind of roll up little balls of oatmeal and put them on her tray and she goes nuts. Silly girl!

As always, wherever Lila goes, there's Rocco. Best buds. No sleeping on the job, Rocco!

Today we were all dressed in our Vikings gear. We went to Costco and Home Depot after the game, and we were asked no fewer than five times if we had been at today's game. Not sure why people thought we were at the game, especially with a baby, but whatever. When we got home Lila went straight into the tub. When she got out, she dried off with her favorite towel - her VIKINGS towel! This towel was a handmade gift from the lovely and talented Ann. Thanks again, Ann! :)

I love her little foot at the bottom of this picture. I seriously cannot get enough of her feet. Little baby feet are just too cute for words.
Yesterday Lila had kind of a rough day. She didn't want to sleep much and was generally kind of grumpy. During a meltdown in the car, I peeked into her mouth and noticed at least one new tooth sprouting out of her lower gums! Today she let me stick my finger in and there's definitely a new tooth in there. Razor sharp! We gave her some Tylenol and she seemed to feel better within just a few minutes. She got another dose before bed tonight, so I hope she sleeps restfully without pain.
Woops - spoke too soon. She's awake! Teething's a drag.
