Saturday we took a trip to an orchard called Apple Annies. It rained most of the way there but by the time we got there we had the only little patch of sun in the sky. It was pretty muddy and muggy. None of this seemed to bother Lilly. She had a blast! We walked awhile to get away from most of the mud so she could walk where ever she wanted. While mommy and daddy picked peaches she walked up and down the aisles of fruit trees picking her own off the ground. We let her pick one of her own and I told her to eat it. (Surprisingly she hadn't tried putting one in her mouth yet!) She walked around eating that peach for such a long time. It made a mess of her shirt so with the mud on her shoes and feet and the peach all over her shirt and face she was a mess! She also got to help pick green beans, bell peppers, and several others. For lunch she enjoyed roasted corn so much that she wanted more. Needless to say she was asleep in her seat before we got to the highway but I really think she had a lot of fun. 
Lilly has really increased her vocabulary. She repeats a lot of words we say. We've been showing her our eyes, nose, mouth, and ears. The past few weeks she's been able to point to our parts if we say them. Last week Logan was playing with her in the play room and was laying on the floor. He said she walked up to him, pointed to her own eye and clearly said "EYE!" He was so excited. He taught her to sing "e i e i ooo" the other day too. She's really started picking up a lot of other words too.
Lilly had a check up last week too. We were excited to find out that she had gained 2 lbs and grew 2 inches in just 2 months! The nurses didn't believe how much she had grown and weighed her twice to make sure. The doctor was happy to see her growing so much and how far she was doing developmentally. We were told to move her to face forward in the car (Logan said he didn't mention that he had already done so :0).

What a cutie walking her way through the peach trees. Looks like she is eating some corn like I raise, we call it peaces and cream, wish you were around so we could have given you some when we harvested it. She is such a sweetie, give her a hug for us.
