Lillian-isms

Our nearly two-and-a-half year old daughter, Lillian, is becoming increasingly well known among our friends for her attentiveness and (very) random statements. Thus one of the reasons for this blog. Here are a few things she has said lately that struck us as funny:

1. Saturday morning, Lillian was sitting at the kitchen table coloring on a piece of paper. We suddenly noticed she was walking upstairs. Here's how the conversation went: "Mommy, I'm going to get a wipe." "What do you need a wipe for, honey?" "I'm just going to get a wipe." "What do you need a wipe for, Lillian?" "Mommy don't look at the table." Lisa then looks over at the table only to find Lillian had been coloring on our wooden table. I guess that's why she needed a wipe.

2. Sunday afternoons are football afternoons around our house. Lisa, being from Chicagoland, is a Bears fan. I'm a Cowboys fan. When Lillian woke up from her nap yesterday, we were downstairs watching the Giants vs. Chargers game. We hadn't said a word about what we were watching or who was playing. Lillian stumbled down in her sleepy stupor to the living room, looked up at the TV and said, "the Giants are playing." We have no idea how she knew that. It was weird.

3. This morning, before Lillian's gymnastics class, she was running around the house in her birthday suit as is her custom many mornings. Lisa looked over to find Lillian touching her naked bottom, so she told her to stop. Without skipping a beat, Lillian retorted: "Mom, I'm just putting germs in it." I guess she thought that would comfort us. She was wrong.

That's all for now. I'm sure we'll have some more interesting stuff in a few days. Much love.
