{Lily Lately} Trains and Conversations

While taking a bath and sitting on her nonslip mat, Lily says:
"I'm too big for this mat. I'm a big girl and soon I will shower like a big girl. I be big like mommy and daddy and Babby and Papa and Mary."

She also said her hair is crazy and it tickles.

I'd like to continue these since I know most people read this blog for Lily updates (well, the family at least... or at least I think that since no one comments on here but will tell me in person).

And because no post is complete without a picture...

As we were getting ready for bed, we had this little conversation:

M: Lily, it's 8 o'clock, it's time for bed.
L: But Mom, it's not dark out.
M: I know honey, but it's late and it's your bed time.
L: But I don't want to go. What time is it?
M: It's 8.
L: 8 o'clock?
M: Yes.
L: 8. O. Clock. (emphasis on every single word)

Once we get into her room and we're cleaning up after brushing her teeth and changing into her jammies, Lily has a wipe in her hand.

L: Look Mommy, I made a ball.
M: Yes, it is.
L: It's very fragile.
M: It is?
L: Yes, it's fragile. (she is carefully holding it in her hands as if it was really fragile and whispering)
M: What are you going to do with it?
L: Keep it for Daddy and Mommy and Lily.
M: Oh yeah?
L: Yep, so we can play.
M: Daddy's not home, can we play later?
L: OK (kind of sad).
M: Can I have it?
L: Yeah...

As we were doing good night kisses and hugs, she kisses me quickly and says "I need a better one!"

We then play "hide 'n' seek" while I'm holding her.

It's the little things.... and I definitely want to remember these moments before she's giving me more attitude!!!
