Happy Birthday Lila!!

Three years ago, my little Lila was born, and has brought sunshine and joy to each day. From her adorable little voice that echos her big sister, to the way she is such a great big sister to Adam, my Lila has always been such a sweet natured little one. I can't believe that she is already three, completely out of diapers, writing her name, and the declared "Puzzle Master!"

March 11

Bronwen and Lila were working on coloring, and Lila asked if the animal she was coloring was a kangaroo. Allow me to try to recreate the conversation:

L: Brawen, is this a kangaroo?
B: ah, yes Lila! It is!
Me: Lila, do you know where a kangaroo carries its baby?
B: In its pouch!
Me: That's right, Bronwen.
B: Why do they carry their babies in a pouch?
Me: Because they are a kind of animal called Marsupials. Marsupials carry their babies in pouches. Another animal that is a marsupial is a koala.
L: oh....
B: Yeah, Lila, that is the kind of specie it is.

Disney-Part 1

Our trip to Disney was an amazing adventure indeed! The girls were wonderstruck by so many things, and managed to push on through each day without naps. Adam was a trooper, just napping in the stroller when he needed to, and watching everything the rest of the time.

Disney Bound!

We are preparing to depart for Disney tomorrow. TJ is going to take the girls into Shelby today, and Adam and I are spending the day packing and cleaning. I wanted to take a moment to record some amusing things Bronwen has been saying as of late. I love how she bravely uses new vocabulary, even if she isn't 100% sure how to.

Lila: Bra-wen, do you like purple?
B: Yes, Lila, but not excessively.

Go Lila!

Lila came into our bedroom this morning, about 6:45, and told me she had to go to the bathroom. I told her to go ahead, and she asked me for help. I assumed she needed me to remove her pull-up, but when I felt her jammies, she was wearing panties. I looked at TJ and asked him, in a slightly accusatory tone, if he forgot to put a pull up on her last night. He insisted that he remembered. Next thing I know, Lila brings out Baby Elephant, wearing her totally dry Princess Pull-up and declares, "I wore panties to bed!" She must have made the switch herself without TJ knowing it!

Tooth

Adam's 8th tooth is popping through! Now he has four on the bottom.

Birthday Wishes!
