- My gorgeous girl is 2 and a half going on 18. She told me today, "Mommy I'm a big tiny little girl." She thought that qualified her for using scissors ;)
- She makes me laugh so much. Her vocabulary is larger than I could have imagined at this age. She understands and remembers things I couldn't have expected her to and she is such a performer. She pretends to be sad and searches for a mirror to watch herself "cry", she tells me silly things to make me laugh. Yesterday she came in the room with 2 skinny pretzels stuck up her nose while smiling. Of course I told her we don't put things in her nose and as she walked away I quietly laughed.She begs me to take her to dance school.
- She asks everyone "where's your baby?" (single people find that very odd) Lily loves Max and frequently hugs him while saying "Hi baby sister." She keeps confusing who's the brother and sister in that relationship.
- She is amazing at folding clothes and wants to help do everything! I will not squelch that, I want her to help me!
- She likes trying to teach me how to do things and give instructions. She even tries to tell us when we've done something wrong "mommy, that is so bad! you in trouble!"(that doesn't fly)
- She's amazing at potty and I'm saving a fortune not buying diapers for her :)
Lilia Sue
She's our love bug and here is a tribute to her!
she loves to help in the yard clean up
no this is not lily, but she took this photo of her best friend Nina! She steals my camera and goes up to people saying, "Mommy say 'Happy Halloween'." and then takes your picture. she's actually pretty great!
Proof she's a born performer. These are her dollies set up as her audience. she even tells them to clap and at the end she bows and says, Thank you very much!
Her newest fascination is with the cd player. she has her own copies of all her favorite Disney cds and plays them and changes between them often (too often). She's learning all the words to all the songs!
She's been asking to go to the jungle, meaning the zoo. we went and her favorite animals are the snakes, lizards, and crocodiles. Is that normal?
new favorite activity- storyhour at the Margate Library! The lady is amazing and the timing is perfect, just before dance school! They played with ribbons, sang songs, bubbles, marched, puppets, and stories. So fun!
She insisted on dressing up while watching a luau mickey mouse club house.
Brother and Sister loving each other! It melts my heart!
Christmas Eve before opening our new pj's
brotherly/sisterly love is sometimes rough and painful...
New jammies
Mom and Dad gave me my big gift that night! My new friend, Violet!
Christmas morning brought lots of fun things!
Max thought his toys were tasty
Lily loves Mr. and Mrs Potato Head and her microphone cd player from Santa
her umbrella and new suitcase were big hits too!
Lily loved her new game from Santa and Sleeping Beauty doll. But she immediately asked where the prince was. when I told her I didn't think she had one she raced downstairs and found a prince and played with the two of them for 30 mins before we had to call her back to open more gifts.
Dave opening his big gift from me. It was an MP3 player. He was really surprised!
Max finally interested in playing with some of his toys. He kept leaving his toys to check out what everyone else got.
