Funny Stories

Lilly sometimes says and does the funniest things. As she gets older and can talk more I know it will get even better. Here are a few funny things she has done lately.

Today, while eating breakfast, Lilly realized that she could see herself in her spoon. She stayed in her high chair for an extra 20 minutes after she had eaten her food and made faces at the long faced little girl on the other side.

About 80 times a day, Lilly asks me, "Mommy, Pay?"(Mommy, Play?) in her sweetest voice while smiling and shaking her head yes. Even if I REALLY dont want to, I feel SO obligated.

When Lilly wants something that I have such as scissors or candy she will get right up in my face and say, “Hi Mommy”. She says it in the sweetest highest voice she can. I of course give in and give her what she wants, but only when she uses that voice.

She also does this to her dad’n when she finds his wedding ring, phone, or something else he never lets her play with. She uses that same voice she uses with me and touches him lightly on his leg or shoulder and says, “Ke Ke Dad’n”, which means, “Thank-you Dad’n”.

The other day I gave Lilly strawberries as part of her lunch. A few minutes later I found them crunched in her hand with red juice dripping everywhere. I of course freaked. I yelled and she was sent to time-out. Hours later after her nap I asked her if she would like some strawberries. She yelled “OH NO, NO!” I had to laugh because I had totally forgotten about the strawberry incident earlier that day. It’s interesting how she remembers everything and how easily I forget them.

Lilly has gotten into the habit of sitting down and taking off her shoes and putting them in the shoe basket every time we walk in the door. I don’t even have to remind her. So the other day we all walked in the door and Gus kicked off his shoes and didn’t put them in the shoe basket. Lilly yells, “Dad’n, Shoes, NO NO!” Then she walks over and picks up his shoes and throws them in the basket and glares at him.
