First Day of Senior Year, and a report from Philadephia

Jacob started his senior year at Half Moon Bay High today. No muss, no fuss. you can enbiggen (enlarge) the pix by clicking on them. Blogger seems to have gone to very small in line pictures.

And here's the news from Philadelphia:

Lily took her first steps on Saturday, and we moved to west philly on Sunday.

After getting into a standing position on her own, Lily takes a single
step towards something to grab onto, but she does this pretty often
and with much excitement. She can crawl really really fast, usually
towards an open door and her cruising is likewise speedy, if ungainly.

Jacob and I are incredibly lucky in our friends and family, who
knocked themselves out packing all day Saturday and moving all day
Sunday. Lily's room is unpacked, but we couldn't find the coffee
making supplies this morning.

Mira and Lily are making friends. After many rounds of stealing each
others pacifiers, Lily offered her pacifier to Mira who was prevented
from accepting it. Later, Mira expressed her affection by crawling
after Lily and trying to gnaw on her ankles and hindquarters.

[ed. note: Mira is Liliana's cousin. She and her parents are sharing the

house with Lily and hers.]

Alex stepped off the plane in Philadelphia at 11pm, though he was
scheduled to arrive from Hartford at 7pm. He and I will be unpacking
and babyproofing!

Lily's first time feeding herself. She does not have a problem.
