Big


When Lyla answers the question of how big she is, she clasps her hands in front of her and then raises them in an O shape over her head. We realize that technically a more correct response would be both arms stretched upward like a V. It's okay, though. We're handling it as maturely as we can.

"Sometimes I break her grasp above her head and point her hands where they should go," Julie admits.

"It's your fault she does it wrong. I'm just saying."

"It is not!"

"Is too."

This afternoon, I took Lyla to an indoor play area. It has a huge structure to climb on, slide down, crawl through, run in, and so on, which will be fun once Lyla's older. Today she was content to zero in on this net.


And tonight she got a bath in the ducky:


When I look at these photos, I realize that she is not so big.

Maybe what Lyla is really saying is that she's 'O' big, not 'so' big. Like Oprah!
She is getting more and more adorable by the second :)
