Lily has a sweet spirit and caring heart. Although she's been known to hit without warning and put mommy in timeouts. She is growing into her big sister role and enjoys letting Bella know who's the boss (and it's not Angela or Tony). Her exploring nature has gone to the dirt, literally. She loves digging for worms and finding them new inappropriate homes (like trees). She is excited to plant some flowers in the back ("with Bella and Mommy") after we seal the deck and railing-some day.

Bella
Age: 18 months
Wt: na
Ht: na
Size: 18 months/4shoes
Likes: Fitting shapes into holes (especially circles with Nana), playing in the sand, helping put the dishes away, playing with Lily and Timmy, birds, airplanes (aka "copter") and real babies (especially Ian's twins from Lily's school)
Dislikes: Being told No
Fav Books: Bear Snores On (aka "Aaachoooo") and 10 Apples Up On Top (aka "On Top")
Fav Food: Pizza and Fruit
Fav Toy: Baby dolls
Latest Changes: Talks even more than ever, likes blackberries, timeouts are now a reality,
Newest Word: Yesterday after Tom sneezed she said clear as day 'Bless You' and today she shocked me by pointing out a letter "B" (I'm not sure who taught her either of those)

Bella amazes us everyday. She talks so much and seems to pick things up very easily. She is fascinated by the world and loves being out in it. Her innocence is refreshing (yesterday she picked up a dying (?) bee not realising the disaster that could have followed). These days so many kids experience things that most adults couldn't handle. I'm grateful to God that my girls can just be kids, exploring and wondering without a care.
