Cousin Everett

Lily, 2 years, 4 months old, and Everett, 6 months old.

We went to Baltimore this weekend to see Luke, Michaela and Everett. He just turned 6 months old and gets cuter by the day. Like most 6-month-olds, Everett loves to grab glasses, necklaces, earrings and HAIR.

Right after this picture was taken, Everett grabbed a handful of Lily's hair (you can tell by the look on his face that he's thinking about it!). She didn't like it one bit, so she ran away from him. Unfortunately, a wad of Lily's hair stayed behind in Everett's hand! Don't worry, she was totally fine.

The next morning, I asked Lily if she had fun with Everett. She said, "Yes, but Baby Everett pulled my hair and I cried...Mama, I need to go to the doctor for my hair!"

 

He apparently made quite an impression!

The Wheels on the Bus

Lily learned a new song this week. I had no idea that the Daddys on the bus said, "QUIET!"

That sounds like something the Mamas on the bus would say!

Outsmarted

Last night, I told Lily that if she ate one more bite of her supper, I'd open her Valentine M&Ms. She put a bite in her mouth. I opened the candy and put some in front of her. She spit out the bite, gave it to the dog, then ate the M&Ms.

Darnit! I was outsmarted by a 2 year old!

Doctor Ackerman

Lily got a doctor kit for Christmas. The pets have never been in better health.

Dinnertime Conversation

I find that Lily is often her most talkative and entertaining at the dinner table. It's the one time of day that she actually stops running around. This is a recent conversation we had, while she was wearing her sunglasses that I found when I was cleaning under the couch. Some of it's unintelligible but mostly it's just her being goofy...and cute!
