Busy week and weekend.

We spent much of last week trying to make decisions...should we get this bronco in Raleigh, should we start feeding Lilly solids foods, and such. So we found a 96 Ford Bronco XLT with manual windows and doors, and no carpet and vinyl seats. It was a state vehicle and it is great condition. We started our trek to Raleigh on Friday after work with the idea that we would be back on the road Saturday afternoon. Well that did not happen, but we did get to do alot; starting with Lilly's pizza for dinner on Friday with Katie and Dugan. Then we headed to see the bronco early on Saturday morning, then we stopped in to see Scot, Stephanie, and Camryn (and give them a tutu for Camryn). Then Katie and I got to visit with Diana and Jason, and chat about the babies. It was so nice to get to sit and chat (rather then run and chat). Then we headed to the NCSU track and field tail gate for some beers and visiting with the boys. We ended up staying over Saturday night, and then I got to run with Tara, Katie, and Catherine on Sunday morning before heading back to Morehead City in our two different cars. After winding down at home it was time to start "solid foods" with Lilly, and it was a MESS!! She could open her mouth, but kept spitting the food back out. Guess we will just need to keep trying!! Yesterday, was Lilly's 6 month appointment; she is 17 lb 2 oz and 25 inches tall. The doctor was very impressed that I had only nursed her for the past 6 months, but said it was time to start on foods. Fine by me!! At least I can start going through the baby food that's frozen away!! On to new baby adventures, and buying a pass for driving on the beach starting tomorrow!! YEAH!!
