Quoting Lila

On the way to school we passed Bob and Dee's house (our delightful, grandparent-aged neighbors) and out of nowhere Lila says, "Do all old people have bird bath's mommy?" Stunned I didn't say anything and so she continues, "Gigi has a bird bath and so do Bob and Dee". Fact: Stereotyping begins at age 4.

Lila's Chasing Boys

Lila, Eva and I went to the park this morning. It was cold but worth it because they had a great time and both are exhausted from playing and the cold weather. We met Scott for lunch in downtown Portland and Lila promptly told her dad, "I was chasing older boys at the park." Which is true! She ran circles around the Washington Park playground chasing an older boy...maybe all of about 3.

Quoting Lila - New Dinner Mama

Tonight at dinner we had steak, potatoes and veggies each that some sort of sauce on them. Lila ate a lot but then decided that it was 'picy' (spicy...aka too flavorful for her palate) and then told me "new dinner mama". Oh high maintenance here we come. Actually she eats almost anything so we are fortunate but this meal was a little bit too mature for her taste buds.

Quoting Lila

Lila is transitioning to a new class at The Goddard School for kids 2 to 2 1/2 years old. She said two days in a row on our way home from school, "More school mama, more Kara, more Ashley, more Kimberly". Those are her new teachers! I guess we can assume she likes it.
