Download

Well, it has been a while since I have posted so I wanted to download some random thoughts.

Ever since Lily has seen Beauty and Beast with her Spanish teacher one day she has become fixated on princess stuff. My girlfriend had bought her a Spanish treasury of princess stories. She won't let me read the words, but she LOVES the pictures. Especially Belle, Jasmin, and Pocahontas.

A funny thing happened recently while we were reading/perusing the princess book...one of the characters was Mr. John Smith from Pocahontas. Lily's uncle is named John also. She made the connection that Mr. John Smith had the same name as her Uncle John...she said, "Look Mommy...Tio John!" (That is what she calls her Uncle John). Needless to say, Uncle John was quite tickled to be "referenced" as Mr. John Smith

She has also developed a love for anything Disney...that's my girl...much to her daddy's disappointment. He is still trying to brainwash her to think Mickey is a rodent. I look forward to the day when she is old enough and we can take her to Disney. Olav said he would never go...but I have a feeling he will change his mind:)

Tonight we were reading The Jungle Book. In one of the pictures, the monkey is holding Mowgli by his shorts. Lily exclaimed, "Look Mommy he is going to pull the pull-ups off!" Oh if we could capture it and bottle it!

Lily got to finally meet her other brother Fredrik today. She took to him immediately! I do hope we get to see more of him!

That's all for this download...hopefully, I will post some new pics soon!
