It has been a year and a half since you blessed us with your presence in this world! Watching you grow and learn is so fun and new. You speak to us, with your sweet small voice, in full sentences to us these days. It always makes us laugh when you say something new because it catches us so off gaurd. We should be used to that by now but it surprises us every time. One of Mommy's favorite memories was when we were staying at Pawpaw and Granna's house and it was early in the morning. You had been sleeping in your pack n play at the foot of our bed, when you stood up and peered over the edge at us. You were barely able to see us, but see us you did. All the sudden clear as day you said, " MAMA! Mama I see you!" It still makes me laugh thinking about that. 

You are turning into a big girl before our eyes. You ask for things and you say please and thank you! You love to help buckle your seatbelt in the car, "I help." Saying YAY and clapping follows everything and we can't help but to join in with you. Listening to music and dancing and sinigng are your favorite things to do. You know ALL the words now to Twinkle Twinkle and it is your favorite song these days. You sing it everywhere we go... in the car.... at the zoo... at the grocery store.. everywhere. It makes our outings so much more enjoyable. 

There are a few TV shows that we let you watch and they sure are a hit. You sing the theme songs to them and you now have started contributing to them by dancing along, clapping when they say clap, or sounding out the sounds to letters. The names of the shows are, Yo Gabba Gabba, Caillou and Super Why. We realized you know all the character's names to Yo Gabba Gabba when we went into a store that sold them and you start pointing and calling their names out. I guess thats a good hint for Christmas 

gifts!

 Your favorite toys to play with right now are your weebles and Bernice is never to far away. Eating is not a popular activity still but we are working on that! Mommy is so happy that you love to drink water! Mommy doesn't care for water but I am so glad that you ask for "wat" (water)

You do so many new things that I would be here writing all day so these are just some of our favorites.

We love being a part of all your adventures, Lillian! 

You are Ours and We are Yours!
