I'm a little late, seeing that in two weeks Lilly will be 8 months old (REALLY, 8 months?!), but here are a few of my favorite shots from her 6 month session!

Ladies Night
Friday night we had a Ladies Night Out at our church, and I am so glad I made it. It was a night full of worship, community, and the chance to listen to our lead teaching Pastor's wife, Brandi, speak on God's grace. Brandi did a phenomenal job! Her talk was on Isaiah 6:1-8. What I enjoyed most about her speech was that she tied in Luke 5.
"5 Simon answered, "Master, we've worked hard all night and haven't caught anything. But because you say, so I will let down the nets." 6 When they had done so, they caught such a large number of fish that their nets began to break. 7 So they signaled their partners in the other boat to come and help them, and they came and filled both boats so full that they began to sink. 8 When Simon Peter saw this, he fell at Jesus' knees and said, "Go away from me, Lord; I am a sinful man!""
One of our table discussion questions was " How are God's holiness and his grace intertwined? And why do we need to see God's holiness in order to see his grace? LOVED this
The night was so good for my soul.
P.S. Tyler kept Lilly all day Friday! I was able to get out for a massage that morning and Ladies Night. I think I will keep him ;).

Lilly 7 Months
August was a busy month for our family. I will try and post an update of life later today, or this week. For now here's a little about Lilly over the past month.
What a wonderful month we have had! It is so hard to believe Lilly is already 7 months old, I seriously feel like she was born yesterday..I know all mom's say this! This was a big month. Lilly learned her first words, or at lease her dad and I think they are words. When we are out shopping she looks at everyone and will say "HEY". So adorable she is a social butterfly. She also is a fan of saying Dada. It started off as a babble, but now when she sees Tyler she will greet him with a big Dada. I'm a little jealous that she didn't say Mama first, but it's so incredibly adorable that I'm only slightly jealous. Lilly learned to drink from a sippy cup, but she is still not a fan of solid foods. I have started doing baby led weaning. I cut up strips of baby appropriate food and let her eat at her own pace; sometimes she eats nothing and just explores the food. Lilly was not a huge fan of puree's so I'm hoping this helps the transition from nursing to solids (I'm in no hurry to give up nursing). Lilly has TWO new teeth! That's four total, and two more on top look like they are close to making their appearance. Also, after taking a beach trip with our nieces and nephew a couple of weeks ago Lilly found a new fascination. She loves all big kids, she thinks they are the coolest and is ready to be one. This Mama is glad she is still little for awhile.
