Updates and ramblings

Good grief! It has been a while since I posted. Somehow the days just fly by.

Lilly is changing so quickly and becoming less toddler and more preschooler. Her imagination is in full force as she plays with toys, such as feeding a toy turtle a "cheese sandwich" or walking him through the "snow". I absolutely love watching the process.

Last night while she was eating dinner, she could still hear The Little Einsteins playing on the TV in the living room. One of the characters asked the kids to help "Rocket" fly by patting their hands on their laps. As he pleaded, "Come on! Pat, pat pat!" I heard Lilly reply, "I eating dinner right now." First things first! That's my girl!

Also, within about 24 hours she started pronouncing some of her "classic" words correctly. We are kind of sad to hear:

"bookey" become "monkey"
"night-night time bear" become "bedtime bear"
"I fine it" become "I found it"
and...
"Nenny" become "Lilly" (with the tongue stuck out to get those L sounds)

At least she still calls the water fountain a "water mountain". I think I want to keep that one forever! I can't say the same for her very favorite word at the moment..."Mine!" Hope that novelty wears off soon!
