Catching up...Lily

Lily continues to make all of us laugh...she is just to that precious age where so much of what she does is so comical. While she still loves Ava with all her heart and is so sweet to her, she has become a little jealous of me holding her and throws fits when I'm not able to hold her. She has become very interested in babies and proves to be quite a good little momma-she loves her babies, pats them, covers them with a blanket & gives them a bottle. She is a very loving little girl-giving everyone lots of hugs and kisses.

Jack has had some issues with being scared to be away from us, so we started playing "Marco Polo" when he leaves the room...well, Lily has clued into this and will yell "Polo" back at him when he leaves. She has also started putting her hands together and says "Amen!" for prayers at mealtime and bedtime. She's trying to learn words finally, but most of them sound the same...we know what she means!

We had to baby proof the house because of this little stinker, she was just getting into everything when I was tied up feeding Ava...it has been a really big help. Lily isn't afraid of being by herself, even in the dark, and can wander off and "entertain" herself for long periods of time. I know this will be a blessing when she gets older...right now it's tricky, wondering where she is and what she's into!
