Lia

Happy Davy!

Lia emerging from a hidey-hole. :)

Unbelievable cuteness

When Davy wakes up in the morning he is just the cutest thing ever. He's so smiley and lovey. :)

Sleeping

Its hard to see in this picture but Lia is hugging a dolly, a stuffed animal and Daddy's shirt. A few days ago Chris came out of Lia's room without a shirt and I gave him a weird look. He explained patiently to me that he gave Lia his shirt so she could smell it if she missed him. Must have worked like a charm since she went right to sleep. :) He's such a good Daddy. :) He, quite literally, gave her the shirt off of his back.

Big girl bed!

"Why, hello!"

Soda!!!

This is one of my favorite stories of Lia thus far. :)

I had part of a soda with lunch and I left the soda can on the table. You see, I forgot that my very talented daughter can now climb like you wouldn't believe. I forgot that I had found her sitting on the table in Davy's bumbo seat only the day before. I ran upstairs to check my email but then I realized with intuition I didn't think I posessed that it was MUCH too quiet. I heard no squawks or squeaks. No throwing of toys, no singing, no galloping. I ran downstairs and stuck my head around the corner into the kitchen. Lo and behold! There was my daughter, sitting in the exact pose you see in the pictures, drinking that soda as fast as she possibly could. It ran everywhere. Down her stomach. Total disregard for cleanliness. Stickiness everywhere. She wasn't even coming up for air. Just scarfing that soda as fast as possible. She didn't even stop when she saw me, she just kept right on chugging. I ran to get my camera. No change. She was still drinking it as fast as humanly possible. Guess I have to stop leaving soda or anything else on the table or within human reach...
