Things are good

I feel like I am finally at a good spot with the babies. 

David has gotten to a spot where he can move around and entertain himself. He loves to play with Lilah's toys. Whatever she is playing with seems to be his favorite toy. We are still learning to share in our house. He will grunt at her and cry if she takes his toys away. It's amazing how he has such big opinions at such a young age. I think this kid might be a little more short tempered than his sister was. We shall see. 

Lately I have felt that I am always behind on house work. Lilah will come up to me to play and I feel like I am always trying to get food ready. Maybe that is why she loves playing with her kitchen so much. Maybe she's always watching her mommy make food. No matter how hard I try, the house is always a mess. I need to figure out a way to keep things more tidy around the house but it's hard to keep up with two little babies who are constantly getting it dirty. I want to learn to let the house go so I can enjoy playing kitchen with Lilah. Afterall, that's her favorite thing to do all day every day. 

I have been loving Lilah's personality lately. She is so funny. Her perseverance amazes me. When I tell her she can't do something, she just finds a way to do it herself. She does not take no for an answer. Here she is opening Christmas presents. Sometimes I tell her no and she tells me "bye" and closes the door so she can go and be naughty. It is so funny I can't help but just let her do it. 

Like for example: I told her just to leave the tag on this bag. She took it into the other room and tried to rip it off. After trying and not succeeding, she ran into the kitchen, opened up the cabinet, grabbed some kitchen scissors, and cut the tag off. Then, when she was done, she through the tag away and put the scissors back where they belonged. I loved watching this all happened before my eyes. She is just so smart!

Oh and home girl loves my phone already. She can get on my phone, open up apps, loves to watch videos, zooms in on photos, and occasionally will buy things online. She loves electronics!

She is always stealing my phone and taking pictures around the house. I get atleast 5 of these pictures on my phone every day. I usually have pictures of the floor, her cute toes, or pictures of her. I love it. 

Lilah loves to help right now. I love it. Except for it's not really help. For example: I cleaned the window and after I was done she wanted to "clean" the window too. I gave her a spray bottle and a paper towel. She LOVES that spray bottle. She will go around spraying everything with water. I wouldn't mind if she actually wiped it up. She usually gets to use it until she starts spraying her little brother in the face and then it's game over. 

More pictures of Lilah on my phone.  

David is such a big boy these days! He refuses to sit and will turn into a board if I try to sit him on the floor. She will stand on his tippy toes like a little ballerina with his legs as straight as ever. 

He's already trying to pull himself up unto things. He wants to keep up with big sister. 

I love my cute boy. Sometimes sister will play so nicely with him. I love days like that. My kids bring me the biggest joy in life.
