We've Had A Lot of 1sts

So I can see by my history of blogging, well...its been a little unpredictable. Its not for a lack of new things. Let's see my parents, Lili's grandparents moved here, finally, from NH the first week of June. Its been fun to foster that new relationship. Liliana is the first grandchild in our cozy, little family. My parents I know have been enjoying it. We see them about 3-4 times a week. Sometimes they just watch her while I sleep after work or when Eli's job hunting, other times its been for dinner or trips to the park. Other days we're just hanging out in their new place, enjoying their new furniture & recently their stuff arrived from NH. They've enjoyed getting new items for Liliana's "space"--so cute.
The weather here has been pretty toasty, 90 & often close to 100 & humid. Limiting what we do outside w/my parents & Lili too.

For just the 3 of us, we've gone to some of the Lakes nearby as well as free music events at the American Tobacco Campus & Duke gardens. One of our favorite things is the Museum of Life & Science in Durham as well as the Durham Farmer's Market. As of recent she's really enjoying climbing-- up & onto everything & we've been trying to explore different neighborhood parks with her.

Next week we are gonna camp & check out the coast. We've been itching to get out there and are so excited to share it with her.

Liliana loves:

*Food-pretty much everything we eat. Favorites are blackberries, veggie pizza & pesto
*Dancing-to whatever we may be humming, jingle on the radio or my favorite episode of Glee
*Getting into & out of boxes
*Putting on other peoples shoes
*Climbing all the way up stairs...with our w/o assistance, mostly w/o :)
*Swimming
*Sleeping (yeah!!). Overnight sleep has been good. Naps are unpredictable at times.
*Likes to bring you things & may quickly take it away or bring it back again.
*Playing w/others
