Lilli's Little's

Computer is "Pooter".

Hangars and Fingers are "Fangars".

Little Smokies are "Baby Hot Dogs".

Granola Bar is "More Bore".

Balloons are "Ba-oons"

When we drain the bath water, she thinks it's a crocodile.

She likes to pretend that all of her toys are cookies and eat them.


She's a puzzle pro and plays with them for hours.

Every morning she says, "Mommy, I want watch mickey mouse and hug!" (which means she wants to cuddle on the couch while we watch)

She still loves to go anywhere and everywhere, and says, "I 'cited, go owside!"

She jumps all day long. If it's not on the trampoline, it's on one of the beds, if not there, on pillows, or just on the floor.

Lately she tells me that everything is "so sweet" and will then give it, or herself a big hug.

She got some spider man rings and LOVES them. She plays with her "spiders" all day long.

She sometimes talks to her hands as if it's a person: "Hey hand, let's go find spider!".

She frequently asks me if we can do dishes. She loves helping me unload them, and I love the help and company!

She also asks me several times a day if we can do laundry ( which means she wants to jump on my bed while I fold clothes).

Videos

(Early December - Making Pretzels)

(Late December - Seizure Elmo)

(Late December - Lilli's favorite movie over the Holiday's was the Grinch, especially the "AH- hoo" song from the beginning. I tried to take a video of it probably six times, but the is the best I ever got)

(January - Lilli spent the entire day with a blanket over her head. Sorry for the TV in the background. Cason was sick and grumpy and wouldn't pause it.)

(February - This girl seriously needed a trampoline. She had been jumping for an hour when I took this video, so she's a little worn out. I'm sure there will be more trampoline video's to come!)

Lilli's Little's

She likes to put her blankets in front of her bedroom door and sleep there.

She's convinced that there's a dragon in target, and tells me she hears him any time we go in or even drive by there. (She's not scared of him though, she thinks it's pretty fun!) 

She actually LOVES target because she gets a sticker. She never forgets to ask for one! She didn't get one once, as as we were walking away she said "Alwight. I get sticker later." Obviously, we tuned back and got her one!

She's at that stage where she'll try to say something, but it comes out as terrible, terrible swear words... I won't put the stories on here, but I must admit that I find them rather funny.

Chocolate covered pretzels are her favorite snacks.

We've started potty training, and have had zero success. She tells us when she has to poo, and when we ask her if she wants to go on the potty, she FREAKS and refuses to do it. As far as pee- pee goes, she'll go in her diaper and then immediately tell me she has to go potty.

Other wise she loves the potty. Here's how it goes: "Mommy I need go potty". So she'll go into the bathroom, lift the lid & sit down. I'll ask her if she should take her pants off first, "alwight" she says, stands up, gets her pants off, sits back down. She'll sit for a minute or two, sometimes she go "psssss" and giggle, or say "I pushing, I pushing", and then ask for toilet paper. She wipes, stands up, climbs up on her potty and gets her hands washed. 
{Sorry for all the potty talk}

If you use a cookie cutter to cut her sandwiches, she will devour them-- but she has to pick the shape.

She doesn't take naps anymore, but we still put her in her room every day for "quiet time", which is beneficial for all of us!

She loves to jump, and usually does so instead of walking or running

When she doesn't want to do something, she very dramatically says that she can't. For example: I CAN'T sleep mommy!! I CAN'T do it!

She has a great imagination, but can also be very literal sometimes.

For weeks she asked us for "more bore", and we could not figure out what it meant. I asked her what it tasted like: "YUMMY!" Cason asked her what it looked like: "FOOD!". We finally found out that it means granola bar.

She's very good at remembering who has given her what, even if it was given to her months ago.

She won't let me take naps. If I try she says "wake up, mommy, wake up!" over and over again, and pinches my nose.

She loves to watch Mickey Mouse, and tell you exactly what' going to happen before it happens.

She still loves to organize and clean things, especially at stores.
