Mine!

Lilly is a little chatterbox these days.  She has a lot to say and her vocabulary seemed to triple overnight!  She has the sweetest voice; I could listen to her talk all day.  Some of my favorites include hi, play, Bible, Jesus, Sissy, cheese, doggie, night night, please and bye bye.  And she repeats what we say, in her own way, which is very cute.  Did I mention she has the sweetest voice?

Like clockwork Lilly poops every evening before dinner (usually within 15 minutes of being home) and she almost always poops in the morning before Phillip takes the girls to school.

She is a good eater.  She feeds herself and prefers to do so with a fork or spoon.  She regularly blows on her food, hot or cold.  Cheese, yogurt, fruit, sandwich meat (ham/turkey), chicken and vegetables make up the majority of her diet.  On the vegetable front, limas are her current favorite but she also likes corn, peas, broccoli, black beans and pintos.  (No green beans, no way.)  She likes to snack on cereal, pretzel chips, gold fish and popcorn.  If we are dipping, she wants to dip... salsa, ketchup, hummus, etc.

She still likes to wash her hands, brush her teeth and brush her hair.  She is usually helpful when getting dressed or undressed.  She loves shoes!

She can throw a mean tantrum.

She loves being outside (riding/pushing her car, trying to ride the scooter, throwing a ball to me or Phillip, pulling weeds), playing with Ellen (especially chase and with stuffed animals on Ellen's bed) and Ellen's toys (Barbies, Polly Pocket) and reading/looking at books.

Lilly is a little chunk (she can hold her own!) and has bright blue eyes and as Ellen would say, golden hair.

She is always on the move.  She likes to help with household chores - laundry, recycling, picking up toys.

She is observant, ticklish, strong-willed and we are almost positive she is going to be left handed.

Lilly is really into climbing into one of the kitchen chairs and sitting at the table (this has led to her standing in the chair, sitting on the table and standing on the table).

She has a few favorite toys/activities but the play kitchen seems to be her go to place.

Lilly is still a good shopper but she will not sit in the cart as long as she used to.  She and Ellen rode in one of the car carts last week at Kroger (it was Lilly's first time - she loved it!)  Ellen asks for one of those carts almost every time we go to the grocery store but I try to avoid them because 1) they are hard to steer and 2) the basket is smaller.  I may have to give in more often because these girls are growing up way too fast!
