As if I needed further proof that my daughter is a genius.
She can already say my name:
That, or she was trying to tell me that she's cold.

Lil' Feet
Until recently, Lillie had no idea that her feet even existed and now that she does, she is obsessed. She has started putting most everything she can get her hands on in her mouth, but her favorite by far are the stompers (as daddy calls them).
"How did I ever go through life without these tasty playthings?"
People say that she has her mama's feet. That they look like mine, and that she wiggles and stretches her toes like me. This is both a blessing and a curse because, Mama's feet are disproportionally large for her body. Once, when I was wearing white tennis shoes, Kevin likened them to speedboats. On the other hand, she can also use her dextrous feet as auxiliary arms. Lillie, I can't tell you how these long toes will come in handy when you are carrying a big load of laundry and you drop a sock. You don't have to come back for said sock, you can grab it right there with one of your opposable toes. Also, if you are relaxing on the couch watching TV and your favorite show is about to start on another station, but the remote is aaallll the way over on the coffee table, you can use one of your handy-dandy feet to change the channel . And if he is anything like your father, this will also come in handy for grossing out your future husband.
