YUMMY SWEET POTATOES

As of yesterday Lyla started eating baby food. I looked online and it said to start her on yellow/orange veggies first. I decided to go with the sweet potatoes. I was a little worried becasue she hasn't liked her cereal at all. I have stopped giving it to her completely. But my litte girl LOVED the sweet potatoes. She actually opened her mouth when she wanted more. She swallowd big spoons full. Here are some pictures...

SITTIN' ON THE FRONT PORCH

As of yesterday, the Cosgrove's finally have a front deck. Mom and Dad worked on it Friday and finished it on Saturday afternoon. It is so gorgeous. It is made of redwood. What is so special is that Mom and Dad made it with their own two hands. We love it and can't wait to add railing and an overhang, but right now we are just so happy to finally have someplace to sit outside. Here are a few pictures...

Here is what it looked like in the early stages...

Almost done.....!!!!

FINISHED!!!

LEARNING TO SIT UP

The other day my friend Kristi from church let Lyla borrow Aiden's Bumbo seat. This produce is really cool because it helps Lyla learn how to sit up. She looks so cute sitting in it, and she really seems to like it. Before to long she is going to be sitting up on her own!

A FEW VIDEOS

Hello again! I just wanted to share a few video's with you all. Today I FINALLY caught Lyla rolling over on tape. She is now rolling over from back to tummy like a pro. So here is that video:

This next video is of Lyla making her new sound. It is so funny, plus her face is hilarious! Here is that video:

Finally, this is a video I took of Lyla laughing. She was playing "horsey" with Aunti Lexy. It is a bit dark, but I think you will get the gist. Here is that video:
