We headed to Red Robin with my parents, brother, sister & nephew for for the first (of many) birthday celebrations for one Miss Lila-the-three-year-old. It was very impressive watching my child wolf down fries and then DEVOUR the ice cream sundae that was delivered to her by singing waiters. The funniest part? When we announced that she was done with her ice cream, she started frantically trying to scoop as much into her mouth as possible before the dish was taken away. Panic was etched all over her sticky, ice-cream covered face.
As I type, Lila is playing with some new farm animals. I love it when she forgets everyone around her and heads off into her imagination. It is really amazing to see and hear. Her animals are currently having extensive conversations with each other, and I do believe that the farm animals have now joined forces to defeat a couple of her dinosaurs. Hee hee, she just had the farm animals sing an updated version of the Wonder Pets song before heading out to deal with those rogue dinosaurs: "Wonder animals, wonder animals, we're on our way..."
Elijah's closet is now filling up with adorable little things thanks to an amazing group of friends. I didn't have a shower before Lila came, so this was my very first baby shower. It was as lovely and wonderful as I thought it would be. The whole adoption process is way less scary knowing that you have an amazing group of supportive mommies in your corner. Thank you thank you!
Hmmmmmm. Lila's zebra, elephant, and swan have joined the mix. And the horse is demanding that the lamb say hello to the rabbit, Ruby. But the lamb has declared that he doesn't want to say hello because he's shy. Lordy, I could listen to this all day.
