Lily's sixth month

Lily's sixth month saw her grow in confidence, starting to pick up anything she could find. She especially loves kitchen utensils - which is handy! Lots of visiting, lots of sleeping and lots of playing!

Here is the video we made on the 16th as Lily turned 5 months old.

This is a party we organised for the missionaries to hang out. Lily is with Honour, another baby on the base and sporting some nice shades!

Lily likes playing on the bed. Unfortunately, we learnt the hard way that she was becoming more mobile when she fell off, which was not a fun experience. But amazingly she had not a scratch.

Lily sleeping (and playing) outside on Twyla's mat.

Two beautiful pictures of mother & daughter - this second one was a massive hit on Facebook, as you can imagine.

Mummy has the pen, Lily has the pen!

The first video shows the new skill of rolling over and then righting herself! And then in Mieze where we run a small business group, getting to know some of the mamas.

I'm always trying to video us playing with Lily and normally she gets shy on the camera, but here you can see we have a lot of laughs together.

A future cook in the making - wooden spoon, whisk, metal pan, she loves them all.

Many hands making light work and sleeping at church.

At a visit to Rachide who works in the kitchen.

Charl sent out with her sister the excellent Totseat which has proved very handy for meal times, plus Lily liked the packaging a lot too.

Much fun to be had from sitting, especially in different things in the house, with only the occasional topple.

With Mummy, Daddy & Lion!

Good cop, bad cop.

At Henk & Antoinette's wedding and a little sleeping bundle being carried home from church. I wish I could sleep so easily!

And to end with, Lily having fun in the bath.

  1. Great snaps - I can see already she is a mischief-maker just like Cate...
