Milestones

So while Lydia and her mom are upstairs taking a bath, I'll take a second to make a post. Lydia latley has been pretending she is the mama and Patrice and I are the "kiddos" this is fun and a natural way for her to explore the roles in our family. She sure looks up to her cousin Bella. Last Saturday we had a girl party here with Bella, Harriet and Emma Anderson, Ruby and Pearle Swanson and Roshi (the only boy) Syring. They all had fun running around and hiding and sqweeling when I suprised them. Later, Bella and Lydia stayed up far too late (11pm) talking and giggleing in Lydias room...it was the second sleepover that we had with Bella.

Catching up...

...to this kiddo is going to tough. Here's her doing some light reading at 2.5 years old. Proof that even in adoption, the apple doesnot far fall from the tree. Today we took her to Dr. H for a quick check up. She laid still on the table and played with us well for 45 minutes while we waited. She is such the little individual, and fun and grumpy and all the things that a little person should be. Short of waxing on and on (off alot, I'm keeping these post brief and achievable

no excuse..not the time

I'll get to that later.

Right now, I'm going to pick it up where it's at. P and L are driving home from Kelly and Doug's farm. Lil L got to feed a horse, Maggie May. Patrice brought the camera so maybe a pic or two soon. I'd like to take this back up and keep a diaary about Lydia's life here. She's almost three and such a little individual! And smart ..ooo...
