Miska Mooska Mickey Mouse!

On the morning of Lilli's birthday party, I asked her if she was excited to which she responded: "CO-CAKE!!!" "TOYS!!!!!" She continued to tell us about it until it was finally time to go over to grandma and grandpa's house.

We decided to open presents first. Thank you everyone for the gifts! She was SO excited and she still loves them! Every morning when i get her out of bed she starts listing off all of her new things: "Mouse books! Doggie! Elmo Pizza! Quack Quack! (See 'n' say)"

We probably should have done presents second, because sh

e was not at all interested in her cupcake- she just wanted to play. Oh well, less sugar is probably a good thing! When we put the lit candles in front of her she seemed VERY unsure, but she did a perfect job at blowing them out! It looks like i'm helping in the picture, but I was actually just showing her how-- she did it all by herself!

She then played in her pool and drank her new favorite drink: root beer. She drank WAY too much, but it was a party, right??

Lilli's Little"s

Whenever we pull into wal mart lilli says "Co-cakes!!" (we've only given in once). Once we get out of the car, she'll often point at a random car and say "Jesse! Mama!" like they'll appear any second.

She's been pooping and peeing A LOT. On Tuesday she went through 1 dress, 4 pairs of pants, and countless diapers.

She usually says "nope" instead of "no"

She calls youtube videos "Lilli's", even if they're not of her.

She got some McDonald's toys and calls them "Donald toys" ... also, she thinks they're the greatest thing ever

When she smells a flower she always says "mmmmm.... yummy" even if it's a really stinky one

Lilli's Little's

When she sees the surgery scars on my knees, she will touch them and call them "colors" like someone drew on me with a colored pencil.

We had tacos for dinner on Monday and she loved the raw red onions and called them "cookies"

She'll randomly point out her nose to you throughout the day

She loves pretending to snore

She calls her Snow White barbie "Mommy" (no one taught her this!)

She'll sing while we pray, like she's saying the prayer too. And then she'll say: "Amen!" when we're done-- it's so sweet!

If you give her strawberries, she'll lick the seeds for a while, take the tiniest bite possible, and then set it aside.

She was looking at The Bernstien Bears and Too Much TV on Friday and saying "No, TV. No, TV." however, when she was done, she brought me the remote and asked if she could watch TV.

Bouncing! Bouncing!

Lilli's favorite thing in the world.

Lilli's Little's

{We're starting something new here}

Lately Lilli thinks everything is "messy" or "yucky" ... I promise my house is pretty clean!

If she hears a loud noise or if something falls, she thinks it's broken.

She loves yogurt covered raisins. Some days all she wants is "ranins".

Grandma and Grandpa Dotson and Jesse came last weekend and she still asks for Jessie several times a day.

She runs into her room, says "bye-bye" and slams the door on me at least once every day

"Friend like me" from Aladdin is her favorite song. She's always pointing at the stereo saying "SONG!"

She LOVES water. Drinking it, playing in it, bathing in it. She's definitely not like her mommy.

She'll finally drink in a sitting / standing position. but not if it's milk. If it's milk she still has to be laying down.
