V:

Well, Lily has six teeth now. She got two of them this month at the same time, and she was not in a good mood. But for the most part, teeth-wise, she's been fine. Another one is slowly coming in.

Words she says: Pee-boo (peek-a-boo). Stop! (we rarely use no) I do/did it. Yay! Heh-o. (Hello) Hey! Hi! Ah-uh. (Uh-oh) Okay. Oh, gosh. And I caught her this morning saying oh, shit. So I seriously need to watch my mouth now. Lol

She still loves to dance. When she's cranky and being a pain in the ass, I just put on some music and she's good. She'll just dance around the apartment. She loves her teddy bears and picks them up and hugs them and walks around with them. This goes for any of her stuffed animals. I'm also happy that even though she has tons of toys, she plays with every single one. And because we read a lot here, she can be found with one of her books "reading." If she wants to turn on the TV, I usually leave the armoire open and she'll just turn it on herself. When she thinks it time to do something else (whether or not I'm watching TV) she'll turn it off and close the armoire.

Lately I've been letting her try and feed herself. She's still having problems with the spoon and fork, but she is determined. Most of the time she just gives up, dumps the food out, and sticks the bowl on her head. I've had to bathe her after a couple of meals because of this. She's done it with eggs, spaghetti, and a "sandwich" bowl so far. (My sandwich bowl is just a sandwich cut into bite-size pieces)

All in all, she's a very healthy, and very dorky, little girl. She's such a nerd sometimes. I am happy though that her "throwing" tantrums are done. I guess she realized that doing that hurts. Now she just stamps her feet in a circle. Right now she's grabbed my car keys and is waving goodbye. She loves to go places. Seriously, she'll throw a fit if she's seen us getting ready and she's ready and no one is out the door yet. Very demanding little monkey. Even with kisses, which she loves to give and get, especially with hugs. Such a lovely diva she is.
