OOoh, Ow and Meow

When I first introduce Lydia to the sound a cat makes, I said,  "Meow." She picked up pretty fast.  Then all the sudden stopped saying the cat sound.  I was wondering why until it hit me today.  I realized that I also taught her ooh when someone in a book is sad.  She makes that sound when she sees a clown that is sad in her circus book.   I also taught her ouch or ow when she tries to pull my hair.  She has a pair of cat socks and today she was saying a mix between all three.  It is really cute because it ends up sounding like a sad, sick cat. What do you know.  I guess the sound that the cat makes is somewhat sad.

Two Little Faires

On Friday the day before Halloween we had a Church party. I had made cupcakes for it and Lydia had been asking for them all day. As you can see in some of the pictures she has chocolate all over her face and shirt. She finally got her cupcake. Her friend Katie was a fairy too. Jill, her mom, and I made the fairy skirts and had so much fun dressing them up as fairy look a likes.

Lydia had fun at the party. She kept be busy by chasing her all around the room. She also loved the decorations. She really liked a paper Frankenstein that was hanging up in the entry way to the party. She would run back and forth to it and laugh and want to be held up to it. It turned out to be a very fun Halloween. She looked so cute from the back with her wings.

Toys, Who Needs Them

This is what Lydia uses for entertainment. She like to play with the pans and towels. Then she also likes this trash can. Don't worry its clean. I don't think I have ever used it for trash. So this year for Christmas I think I we will just get her a bigger trash can . Just kidding.

Fun in the Leaves

Lydia and I went out to savor the cool fresh air and the beautiful fall leaves. She kept trying to step off the sidewalk. She thinks that she is big enough to walk down the stairs by herself. Yikes. She is so much fun. She is always happy. What a blessing!

At the Park

We went to the park with Lydia's friend Katie and my friend Jill. We had so much fun going down the slides. I told Lydia that she could take her ball so she went and got it and carried it around with her as if it was her friend. She wanted to swing with it and slide with it. It was so cute.

O' What Do You Do In the Winter Time?

Lydia walks around with her bathing suit all day. So this morning I put her in the tub with it on her.

We also went outside for a little bit. It was wonderfully sunny out but the wind was a down side.

After coming inside she had wonderful hat hair.

Fall or Winter

Eating cherrios

The cold can't keep Lydia inside. She just loves being outside. She gets a little grumpy if we don't go outside for a little while each day. This jacket is adorable. She knows that as soon as she gets her coat and hat on then we are headed out the door.
