Bath Time Expressions

When Bronwen was this age, I did the Lady of Bath series on this blog, but since Lila is a little behind in the hair department, we'll have to stick with funny faces. If I had more sleep, I am sure I could come up with clever comparisons to these faces, but right now, I am just happy to be posting something new. Suggestions are welcome.

I Never Would Have Thought...

If you have been following my blog for any length of time, you will know that when Bronwen was a baby, Pepper was her best friend. We used to think it was because she liked Bronwen; Later we discovered that it was more than likely because she liked Bronwen's toys. From boxes to bouncy seats Pepper was always at the ready to fill in the moment Bronwen was gone. But today, yes today, Pepper took things to a whole new level.

To wit--Lila in her Bumbo chair:
Then I see this:
I think to myself that this position cannot be comfortable, that she is just checking out the seat. I was wrong. She cozied herself up in the chair and prepared to nap. How this was comfortable, I have no idea. Yes, Pepper thinks she is a human baby.This is just a bonus because it seemed to be "cat in strange places" day. I found Mollie in here as soon as I went into our room to upload this pictures.

T.J.'s Artistic Side

Bronwen is wrapped inside the shower curtain--she told T.J. afterwards that she wanted to take "more crazy pictures." They are two peas in a pod...

In case you need a clearer idea of the game...Here is Bronwen "hiding" in a blanket. My part of the game is to go around asking where she is...and I'll say, "Is she in the closet?" and I'll get a giggly, "Nooooo..." from the talking cocoon. She thinks this is great fun, even though I find it somewhat tiring. Still--this is hilarious.

Lila Learns...

For the nonbelievers:

Tools

Bronwen has been extremely interested in tools since she began helping T.J. in his workshop. Aunt Jana was kind enough to find a book all about different tools, and it is an almost daily ritual for Bronwen and T.J. to look at the book while playing with the actual tools from my toolbox. There is just nothing cuter than Bronwen saying, "Phillips head screwdriver" or "needle nose pliers."

Sisters

Finally, we have a good comparison shot of the girls. The first is Bronwen at 20 weeks, the second is Lila at 19 weeks. I think they look really different!
