consider the lily

here are some pictures of lily from this past year.

age two




personality
(yes the bandaid picture needs some explanation. she got poked in the eye and wanted a bandaid. i told her that we don't put bandaids on eyes. in typical lily fashion, she went into bathroom, got bandaid off of shelf in closet and put it on herself. and yes, i know that taking the picture will only encourage her. she went to bed with band aid on so i wasn't around when she pulled it off. luckily, she still had her eyelashes in place when she woke up in the morning.)



nemo costume from halloween.
i usually don't buy costumes but i couldn't resist this one. plus lily loves fish (hence the birthday present).
i


cindy lou who
this was my attempt to make her look like cindy lou who. i stopped counting at how many people have told me that lily is a cindy-lou-who look alike, but i think the number is 30+. i haven't heard it for a while so maybe she is outgrowing the look. i still bought a dress on clearance to make a cindy lou who outfit with for next halloween.

The picture of her with a band aid on her eye has me laughing out loud. Soooo funny. She seems like such a character! What a cutie! Happy birthday Lily.

Oh, so cute. What a sweet birthday tribute! I love the favorite things post, too! Wish I'd thought of that when Cha-cha turned three. Of course, I can still do it and should do one for each one of my munchkins. Thanks for the inspiration!

quotables

"is that lily holding baby lily?" -lily's response when i showed her a picture of gracie holding her when lily was a baby.

"drama class is actually a lot of fun." -gracie (this is only humorous in that grace seemed surprised by how much she likes drama class. this from my child who we refer to as "a drama queen" when she is not around.)

"mom, you can go with my teacher and i'll stay home with japie and evan. daddy can go to work, and i'll be the mommy" -lily, in response to learning that she would be going to preschool next year instead of this year.

"mom, if you don't get rid of that smell soon, you're going to have to buy a new car." -gracie when it took me a couple of days to clean out my car after returning from a road trip.

"mommy, they have dress-ups for you!" -lily while walking by the prom dress section at macy's.

"i said the prayer "last"-erday." -lily's replacement word for "yesterday."
