successful trampoline-ing

i'm actually pretty bummed because right after i finished filming this clip, she started saying "Tino!  Amaaaazing."

gymnastics at home

lilah really loves her gymnastics class.  

and, as everyone said she would, lilah has taken it home with her.  

can't say i wasn't warned.

a blast from the past

it feels like this was taken 20 years ago, in another life.

i'm still pretty comatose, though, and lilah's still trying to get the plants...

so it can't have been that long ago.

can it?

SoUPtastic

no one has ever made tomato soup look so cute.

milk mustache, take a hike.  y'ain't got nothin' on this ginger 'stache, dude.

the benefits of sign language

the sign for ladybug (which is the same for any "bug" in ASL) is to put your thumb on the tip of your nose and wiggle your first and second fingers in the air.

though i really like lilah's interpretation.

(nb for older - lilah:  when i posted this initially, you laughed and laughed and asked to see it again and again.  i love you and i'm sorry for any embarrassment this may cause you in the future.)

for the record

in developing her language skills, lilah has experienced a rare bout of verbal dyslexia.  it's consistent, anyway, so eventually it will work itself out.  but i love it so much i just wanted to get it on paper (as it were) for future reference.

i say:  don't move!

she says:  moo-nondt!

i melt...

still the favourite game

so, nothing new except the ever-growing cuteness of wee lilah.

but it was definitely cute enough to share.
