2 milestones

so on my birthday lily said her first word... at first i thought it was just babbling... "dad" but then she looked directly at seth and nodded as she said "dad" and i brushed it off and later i asked "where's dad?" and she looks at seth and states dad again... so she meant it... then today she got her first tooth on her bottom right. hopefully this means she will start sleeping better again. anyway she is growing up so quickly. she tries harder and harder everyday to crawl. the weather here has been "nice" we had a few days about freezing so about half the snow is melted and our parking lot is a lake. our apt is almost unpacked and the living room and kitchen are clean... so life is good.

reader beware

DO NOT READ THIS IF YOU HAVEN'T SEEN I AM LEGEND.
so this weekend we went to the theatre for the first time since i was about 7 mos prego and saw i am legend. first i really liked it.. it was way too scary for me ( i had to walk out 3 times to calm down) but there were a few things that bothered me. first robert talks about how the dark seekers have lost all human characteristics... so i therefore expected him to later point out that they were still human and that love or something of the sort would cure them. i felt that when the female dark seeker was captured and the male dark seeker came into the light to see her it was because he loved her... and this is why he continuously leads the attacks on robert ... since she was almost healed when they attacked i thought that they would have been calmed by the fact that he had a cure and stop attacking. also they set a trap which is a a trait of humans. they also huddle together in the dark. the ending in general bugs me... first they shouldn't have gone to the basement... that was the only place that when it turned light the dark seekers would have still stayed there.. this does show that he had no choice but to use the bomb (except the above solution with love invloved) oh and it bugs me that we don't know if his family die or not. anyway i really did enjoy the movie and felt it was well done. tell me if you think i'm wrong or point out more ways they are still human.

so small




lily had a wic appt yesterday and she is 12 lbs 12 ounces and 24 1/2 inches long which puts her under the 5th percentile in weight and the 10th for height... anyway i got distracted and she woke up.. so here are pics of her feeding herself.. she would only eat the food off the spoon so it was really cute. we leave for provo fri to see my sister in law who is recovering from brain surgery.
