lily and i have been sick all week which means lots of moaning and groaning and temperature taking. its been a rough go, but kevin was thankfully able to help us out for a day and a half.
on tuesday i woke up praying "please lord give me the patience to listen to lily whimpering all day" and when i sat next to her in the playroom she turned to me and crawled into my lap for the first time. it melted my heart right away and was definitely the answer i needed.
us girls are on the mend slowly but surely!

i had my first real day off in 6 months this weekend. i drove up to dallas saturday for my wonderful friend mary's surprise birthday party and left lily and kevin in austin to fend for themselves. they had a GREAT day together and i drove back this morning.
i was playing outside with lily and had my camera in my lap and got this pic of lily looking up at my face. i know its not technically the best pic of her, but i love it because it really captures the look in her eyes when she is looking up to me.
it just reminds me that i'm her mom and for at least a few years i can do no wrong in her eyes.
she is such a sweet girl.

first came guitar hero. it all seemed innocent enough...but now we're addicted to rock band.
to be fair i never cared much for guitar hero. i'm not very good at it and anyone who knows me well would vouch that if i'm not good at something i usually don't continue to do it :)
based on my failure as a guitarist -in real life and video games- i got relegated to the drums on rock band and its actually ridiculously fun and addicting. (in the interest of full disclosure i should add that i played the snare drum in my 7th grade band, so its not totally new to me if you count middle school in my percussion experience.)
don't tell kevin, but i'm totally practicing when he's at work.
lily's on the microphone screaming and i'm pounding out a little bon jovi. i'll just consider this her interactive introduction to 80's rock. its educational! :)

lily was so sad when i told her that aunt erin was leaving us for a week to go on a cruise...
erin and mike called me from the loading deck of the cruise to let me know they successfully smuggled a bottle of rum on board. for those of you who haven't heard, erin actually won the cruise and they are going for FREE on the cayamo trip this week! its a cruise for music lovers and has some really great shows for them to see.
they also noted that the cruise was heavy on the lesbian and 60+ crowd, which made them take a second look to see if the indigo girls or perhaps fleetwood mac were playing, but its still just lyle lovett headlining :)
i can't wait to hear more about this adventure!
