On the morning after her birthday party, Lila tore into this new bag of blocks. She loves taking each one out, chewing on it, and tearing apart Daddy's creations.
|
Now an adept cruiser, Lila has figured out how to carry her belongings without sacrificing mobility.
|
Example #2.
|
She tried spaghetti with tomato sauce for the first time and LOVED how messy she got.
|
Our last time at the Coralville Library storytime. (This Friday will be our final, beloved Book Babies at the ICPL.) Here, she's playing during the open playtime after the story/singing time. Lila is demonstrating her current crawl/walk.
|
We'll miss our storytime friends and toys.
|
She's free!
|
the tasty shovel from Uncle Chris and Aunt Jessica
|
getting some good exercise pushing around the high chair. This girl is strong!
|
getting into more trouble with her sidekick Franklin
|
This weekend, we finally visited the Iowa Children's Museum that's nearby. We'd been waiting to see if she would be walking anytime soon, but with only a week left here, we knew it was time to check it out. Lila is pulling up and cruising so well, she had a fantastic time exploring all the fun rooms.
|
I'll take a potato and carrot at the farmer's market.
|
testing out the relish from the playhouse fridge
|
who is this strange scarecrow?
|
an expert tractor driver--of couse, she was born in Iowa!
|
Hmmmmm, should I follow Daddy into this dark tunnel?
|
She went for it! She made it just past the turn and then decided to turn back around. :)
|
back to the playhouse
|
Pickin' tomatoes.
|
back to her favorite, the tractor.
|
So close to walking! She can walk confidently holding on lightly to just one finger now. We're close!!
|
Not sure if she likes this treehouse reading room.
|
Playing the drums in the music room
|
Pounding on the real drums with Daddy.
|
How does this thing work?
|
Picking up a few items in the grocery store.
|
Walking up the stairs to the very high (and very steep!) tunnel slide with Daddy.
|
They made it, and she emerged with a smile!
|
Where are we headed?
|
After all those adventures in the Children's Museum, we finished our afternoon with Whitey's Ice Cream (a local favorite). She was startled by the cold at first, but then clamored for more.
Happy Father's Day to Craig, too! Although we had a wonderful and full day, we realized too late we didn't take any pictures. |
We have one week left here in Iowa City, and we've been busy packing and checking off our favorite activities one more time. We also checked out the Iowa Children's Museum for the first time.
