In case you're wondering

Yes, that little ticker to the right of here means that a third baby will join us in the first week of December or so. We know two things: there is going to be a difficult explanation to Lily if it turns out, contrary to her expectations, that it's a boy, and second, we're going to really score on our 2008 tax return.

Lilyisms, plus one

Let's just say we've been dealing with Lily freaking out if Jonathan, who's now asserting himself, takes any of her "stuff."

Lily: Jonathan! You can't have that! It's a desecration!
Mom (thinking, this is rather advanced logic for a 3 yr old): It's a what?
Lily: A desecration! You know, just to look at and not to touch!
Mom: Ah, you mean, a decoration?
Lily: YES!

Lily: I don't like daddy's kisses very much.
Mom: Why not? I like his kisses.
Lily: Well, I just don't like those prickly weeds, you know?

On the day of Jonathan's birthday

Mom: Jonathan, stop fussing.
Lily: Why does he fuss so much?
Mom: I don't know, I never know what he wants.
Lily: I think, I think, that if he could just have one little taste of cake, then he would be happy forever!

Happy 1st BD
