We Survived...

 

For a while there we were not quite sure what had happened to our sleepy, easy baby...and to our lives for that matter, but I believe we have made it through the worst of Lily's colic. Our nights used to involve two or three car rides of what we called "Lily's Loop." Lily's Loop would calm her down just in time to pull in the driveway and get out of the car...which is when she would inevitably start wailing all over again. But, rest assured, she started smiling and talking and being a content baby just in time...Chris used to lovingly threaten her that if she couldn't behave we were going to give her to the gypsies. She is a pretty good baby now so we have decided to keep her.

I LOVE the pic of Lily laying on Ruby. Too cute. And I'm so glad that Lily's colic is hopefully fun. You guys are troopers. Can't wait to see you soon!

I'm glad to hear that the colic is on the way out. How frustrating! They just can't help it, though. She's so darn cute. Definitely worth it.
