Nice!

Yep, that is Lydia's new favorite word. She pets the kitty and her Daddy and her toys, occasionally even her mom and says "niiiice" It actually sounds sort of like "nishe". She's cute that way. Other than that most of her words are garbled right now though she talks a lot. She trying out a lot of words once and when you ask her to repeat it she refuses. She knows what everything is. I can't believe how much she knows. Last night she awoke at 3 and was all wide awake and bushy tailed. I was groggy and grumpy and said, hold on a sec Lydia, let me see what time it is. She reached over me to the bedside table and handed me the clock! It's a small battery powered egg shaped clock from Brookstone called a Bob. Sort of like a cross between a weeble wobble and a clock. A pretty cool little gadget, anyway I was amazed at my smart little squirrel.

I put up 3 Christmas trees this weekend. The big one in the living room, a small one on the kitchen table and the pink feather tree in the bathroom. I decorated the living room one last night, then I did a dance and song about how all the neighbors were jealous because we had our tree up already. Brian said we were too early so I did a dance and song about how he was jealous. I'm not sure of what but too early my ass! Lydia is going to have so much fun at Christmas! She and her cousin are going to be adorable. I only wish my Mom and Steve could come up. They talked about coming for T.day but aren't going to make it. I hate having to be with one family or the other.

ANYWAY, THIS IS LYDIA'S BLOG YO!
Lydia had her 1 year check up about a month and a half late. It took way longer than I expected to get our insurance going but we are all good on that now. For the first time she was totally freaked out by the doctor. She cried through the entire exam. The shots sucked of course and then we had to get blood taken since she was anemic at her 9 month. They said that since she was a year they take it from her arm instead of her finger. This was not fun. Brian sat with her in his lap in the lab chair and I had to hold her arms down while they put the needle in. Poor pea. No, not fun at all. She is still a big girl but no longer a chunk. She's 75% in both weight and height and 50% for her bean. So proportionate like a little super model!

Lydia's got some congestion right now and acts like I am trying to kill her if I have to suction her nose. Brian was reading her some books and I hear a little cry and then some laughing and then they came in and he said "I sucked her nose" and I was like "Why the hell isn't she screaming?" So he gets that job from now on.

I am making a wish list for Lydia for Christmas. I really don't want her to have any more electronic crap. I'll put a link to it on here later. Right now I have to go play gin with my mom.

More to come...Stay tuned...
