Ok, so this is totally a Mommy thing to do, and I can't help myself. The following 3 completely random pictures are purely to show you HOW CUTE Lydia is in a ponytail!

Of course I couldn't get her to look at the camera for more than 1 second - she's too quick for our camera!
Daddy has developed a new game for Lydia. It's funny. He has always liked working with her on vocabulary, whether it's running through the Baby Einstein flashcards (which she still likes to do) or naming things in the kitchen while we're eating, etc. The latest trick is that he grabs a bunch of her little toys, lines them up on the window sill, and then names them, one at a time, and with a bit of a rhythm. She becomes very engaged with him. She thinks it's fun...and also a little silly!




Last Saturday, Aunt Katie, Omi and I went out for a little girl's day out (lunch and pedicures) while Uncle Ollie baby-sat Lydia's cousin Warner. Officially, he was baby-sitting Lydia too, but she napped literally the entire time we were gone. So therefore Uncle Ollie able to focus purely on his nephew Warner.
Later, we watched Lydia share one of her favorite things with Warner. He's smart and knew exactly how to operate the toy, but Lydia stayed close by in case he needed any assistance from his older, wiser cousin. (Or to be sure she was going to get it back once he was finished!)
