XIX: Imma Shake You

Lily has gotten into her "parrot" stage.

A couple of days ago, we were sitting in a gas station while Justin pumped gas and I was playing peek-a-book with by visor mirror. Soon I was hearing a slightly slurred, but still very clear "I see you!" from her. I was so excited. She doesn't do it constantly, but when she does, I can't help but love her for it.

Another repeat example; I was getting her dressed Monday because we needed to do a last-minute walk-through in our new house before we move in, and the entire time I'm trying to dress my child, she keeps trying to run off. Now when she's acting like a pain, and I get very frustrated I semi-threaten her with some random act that I'll never do. I pull her back to me and go "Lily, stay put. I will shake you!" And while I'm buttoning up the back of her dress and starting on her bow I hear "Ima shake you." All I could do was laugh.

She's such a brat. I love her to death, though. She also knows where her "toti" (vagina) is.
