Nothing too exciting to see here, but here's Lily moving from one activity to the next, with a lot of stair-climbing in the middle:

Banana Pudding

Lanie says that she's never been very good at putting Cool Whip ™ on top of banana pudding, so following my advice to try squeezing it out of a bag, we ended up with this:



which eventually begat a very confused Lily, as she has never encountered such a dessert (or much of any dessert at all, now that I think about it):

That capped off a weekend that seemed entirely devoted to cooking. Lisa had surgery on Friday (twice!), so we helped to keep her, Josh, Maya, and Meg fed, and we went all-out this afternoon. (Slow-cooked pulled pork barbecue sandwiches, carrot salad, deviled eggs, and banana pudding.)

Oh yeah, she loves playing Peek-a-Boo now; this is the tail end of it:

P.S. plastic plates.
