STINKER

I'm going to take my sweet time and chat a little bit about my favorite girl. My little Lilly Belle. Girlfriend goes pretty much non-stop all day (with a nice little afternoon nap). She'll be 2 at the end of January and I have NO idea how that happened. She talks up a storm, runs a muck, and does every other little quip you might think a kid would do. She knows her colors, her ABCs, her 123s, and practices drawing Brobee and Muno just about every day.  And if she gets caught be sneaky, she yells "STINKER!"  I'll just go ahead and share some of my favorite recent moments with you, and you can get to know her better...

This girl has the brightest smile, and absolutely loves her brother. LOVES. And no, she never has clothes on.

SEE!  She loves him.  He...tolerates her for the most part, but those moments when he's affectionate without prompts are magical.

Holy moly, if there were two of her??  Oy.

Little known fact: she will put almost anything on and go look in the mirror.  She loves it.  And she loves these glasses (which she stole from Caleb's Halloween bag).

So thankful that both of my kids love bath time.

She's absolutely in love with her daddy.

Once again with putting anything on...and yet again, no clothes.

This was a magical night...well a magical 5 minutes, because that's how long it lasted before Caleb DEMANDED she get out of the tub.

Stinker.  Loves her Bruins ; )

Dressing up.  She happens to love mittens; very useful in southern California ; )

She happens to really dislike having her picture taken...you have to trick her into it.  You can't say "CHEEEEESE" or "SMIIIILE", or heaven forbid let her har the sound of the shutter.  Yeesh, we're working on it!

She pretty much takes over wherever she goes.  For example...the Disney Store at South Coast.

Just like her brother she LOVES Yo Gabba Gabba.  EMBRACE IT, friends!!

Do not let this photo fool you!  She is NOT a snuggler.  She will only snuggle if she's shy or suuuuper tired.  She gets to bed by herself, she's Miss Independent.  But the times she does snuggle are priceless.

Her preferred stance for drinking out of her Hello Kitty sippy cup.  One handed.
And if she needs more, she'll politely yell "MORE PWEASE" and chuck her cup at you, overhand.

Loves to be outside.

Again, no clothes, blogging about binkies ; )

Taking a moment to wash that man right outta her hair...

Dressing up in mittens and a beanie in 75 degree weather.

Anxiously awaiting her Target popcorn.  We go at least 2 times a week while Caleb is at school.

Surprisingly loves The Winch *The Grinch*
