Lydia is growing up

I know that my last post was about Lydia, but she seems to be growing up so fast today. Her favorite toy is still her Jessie doll (from Toy Story). She is learning her alphabet very quickly. She still is very tiny. She only weighs about 24 pounds. Her favorite things to do with Mommy, is dishes, folding laundry, cleaning the toilets and making her bed. Each Saturday I take her grocery shopping with me and it is an awesome time for us to spend time together and also teach her things that she doesn't normally get to see, for instance, climbing out of the front of the cart on your own is dangerous. Just because she sees something she wants doesn't mean we have money to buy it. Today, she learned that you have to earn money to get things. Joel and I decided it was time to make her room a little less babyish and add some big girl qualities to it. We bought a shelf that we could kind of use a toy/book/stuffed animal shelf. She loves it and it makes her room look less crowded.
