Today Lily actually got dressed and we went over for a playdate with our friends. (Not without a few minor meltdowns along the way, but we got there) It was wonderful. Not only for her sanity but for mine! She was great too. She was her usual sweet self giving hugs, eating (which has been a rarity the past week, I'll buy you some bagels E!), and playing with all of Lorelei's toys!
At around 1145, she began giving out hugs and saying bye-bye. She then got her shoes on and put the diaper bag over her arm ready to go. When I picked her up, her head hit my shoulder and she yawned. At this point, I knew it was time for her to go even though I wasn't.
We made it home by 1215, watched some of her favorite shows (Elmo, Sid and now Super Why are her favorites) and then headed to naptime around 2 (usual naptime and trying to get her back on somewhat of a normal schedule). She quickly fell asleep and was out for a good 2.5 hours!
When she woke up, it was like I had my Lily back!! All smiles, limited tantrums, hugs and kisses, wanted to play with her toys and was so excited when I opened the door to watch for Daddy's car to come into the driveway.
After dinner, Lily helped unload the dishwasher and caught these two dancing in the kitchen without any music.
And then posing for some pictures. Not sure where she got the second pose but as they say, pictures say a thousand words. These are the first pics that I think her eyes look "normal".
And then of course her self-portraits. Putting the camera in her cubbies and pressing the trigger as if the self-timer was activated. Too funny. And a good sign that Lily is on her way back to being Lily.
