The story of our precious little girl's 17 months of life with Trisomy 18 (July 4, 2010 - December 15, 2011) and of us, re-learning to live "after Lilly."
"I will praise you for I am fearfully and wonderfully made ...." Psalm 139:14

Just a swinging!



Today I unpacked our baby swing for Lilly. The pictures and video here are from her first time in the swing. She didn't seem to know what to think! She gave me serious looks and talked hard. But this evening I put her in it again and she liked it.



When Lilly is really upset or tired, she likes to be jiggled. So I hope she really enjoys the motion of the swing. Because she's still so limited in what she can do physically, I find it hard to offer her a variety of activities to do during the day. Not that she seems bored. She is usually such a content baby.


"How do you like to go up in a swing, Up in the air so blue? Oh, I do think it the pleasantest thing Ever a child can do! " - from "The Swing" by Robert Lewis Stevenson
