We've had too much fun between our last posting (pre-technical difficulty) and this one, so I'll have to just pick up here. I will say that our little family has had a lot of visitors, has made some visits and Mama and Lydia spent our first weekend away from each other (Dad took Lydia away to Vermont for a lovely, Summer weekend).
So this past weekend we spent in Plymouth at the Billington Sea with Heidi and Jim, Uncle Nick and Aunt Pink, MooMoo and our new "exchange friend" from Egypt, Youssef.
Uncle Nick and Lydia spent time exploring the magical experiences of the "Sea".
MooMoo and Lydia relaxed in the hammock.
We, of course, had a lobster party, the three boys (Chaunce, Nick and Youssef ) - now referred to as the three men in the tub (guess which is which) went fishing, and Lydia spent time jumping around in tricked-out tents.
Generally speaking, Lydia is a nut. She hugs and kisses and says "no" and "mine" alot and loves to run and laugh. She has started telling great stories only she can follow completely, but her Spanish and English have so equally advanced we're really excited. Lydia does have a mind of her own, so every moment isn't complete laughter. She will brush her teeth every night, but sometimes will ABSOLUTELY NOT brush the front. Although we wash her face every morning and night, she still behaves as though this is the biggest sneak-attack of torture I've devised. She talks a lot about her booboos and if she hurts herself she'll tell you exactly where it happened. It seems like she has developed a sense of pride. She gets embarrassed now, which is heart breaking. She'll fall and then look around to see if you noticed and then react with a pout. AND, she tells us when she has to go to the bathroom "pee pee" or "poop" and she will approach the potty, but not quite use it, yet.
That's enough for now.
Enjoy two little videos below. In one, Lydia makes a bed out of blocks for her bunny and she climbs UP the slide.
