Ever since Nana left on Sunday, Kate has been filling in as Mom and Appa's best helper and baby holder.
Not surprisingly, Kate has the magic touch when it comes to soothing Lily. When she sings to her, the baby immediately calms down and directs her eyes towards her sister's voice.
Lily's eyes were a dark, steel gray when she was born and are slowly turning dark brown, like Kate's and Momma's eyes. And her hair is light brown with frosted blonde tips -- like Vanilla Ice.
Lily's long toes.
Her long fingers. Piano-playing fingers?
Kate took this nice shot of Lily. 
Last week, Kate came down with a fever and had to stay home for a few days. Fortunately, she was a big help as Momma fed and burped Lily 'round the clock while dealing with her constant geyser of breastmilk. Kate would point and shout, "Mom! It's leaking!" and rush to get me my (aptly named) Lily Padz, saving our family from a flood, just like the little Dutch boy.

Lucy had really long fingers and toes when she was born too. Her fingers are still long--piano could be in their future!
