We have a few interesting photos here. The first one is Lily today on one of Nana's quilts. Nana has a bit of an empire going with "Mary's Keepers." Most of the grandkids have one, and they have gone out far and wide.

Next to that, we have a bit of a comparison going. Scout is the fat thing next to Lily, not exactly sure of his exact weight, but it's above 20 lbs, maybe 30 labs. He's often referred to as "Fat guy," "Fathead", "Chunky Trunks," and all sorts of other derogatory terms, and he deserves most of them. He's a Maine Coon, a tempermental sort of breed, but he has mellowed in his obesity and old age. Now he's just a loveable old coot who likes his fat belly rubbed. He used to ignore Lily, but now he's quite fond of her, and will often come into the room when she cries.

We have a couple of sleeping photos, one in profile. Pamela has a bit of a flirtation with arty baby shots, and this was one of the one's I quite enjoyed, the "ear shot". And then there's the classic "hands up" or "completely out of it" shot on Nana's lap.

Finally, we have two Mom shots. Pamela is such a wonderful mother it's amazing, and to see her with Lily is simply awe-inspring (at least outside of 2am -- that's just tough to watch).

Lily is much more alert these days, and appears to be gaining a bit more control of her limbs. Her neck strength is growing day by day, and it's fun to watch her look around when she's on someone's shoulder.

The funniest thing is when we're walking her in the sling and she's asleep. She grunts with every step we take. Pamela likens it to a chainsaw motor being started.

Anyways, that's all for today. Look out for celebrity impersonations day, coming soon!
