Lily's New Language...

Lily started saying "Two-Word" phrases this week:

1. "Quack, NO!" - Translation: "Mr. Duck, this slice of bread belongs to me and you shall not partake of its deliciousness." (She then shoves most of the slice of bread into her mouth to prevent the duck from getting it. This was in response to trying to give the ducks in our front yard a treat that she wanted for herself.)

2. "Help me!" - Translation: "I'm going to go and "hide" in the tent in my bedroom and I would like for one of the two adults in this house to come and find me, enter the tent, and tickle my feet or neck."

Additionally, Lily is beginning to speak in foreign languages:

1. Somewhere, we don't know where, Lily was introduced to German linguistics and instead of just saying "NO," she now is yelling out "NINE." We know that she is not yelling out the number Nine, because she can only count to five.

2. Thanks to Dora the Explorer, Lily responded with "Abajo?" to Liz's request to put the pillows "Down."

Lily Visits Grandma Dolly...

We took the baby to see Dolly yesterday and had a very nice visit. We took coffee and doughnuts and Lily spent the time entertaining Dolly and her roommate, Chrissy. Everything was going well until I set off the bathroom alarm trying to find a place to hide so I could talk on the cell phone without getting yelled at by the nurses. Of course they all came running so I opted to talk on the phone later, lest I cause a mass evacuation by setting off God knows what else.

Lily actually sees Dolly often, as Doug and Barb take her every week or so. Lily walks around like she owns the place and knows exactly where to go, including the fish tank, where she bangs on the glass to get the fish to pay attention to her.

Lily gives Grandma "Five!"

Lily gives big hugs...
