Hey, give it back (or You ate my nose)

Lydia and I (Dan) have a little game where we eat each other’s ears and noses. Well, she got to saying “Hey, Give it back” every time I would eat her nose and it sounded so cute that I got a sound bite and wanted to post it here. After I ask to get my nose back she’ll tell me that it’s already in her belly.

I hope you like it.

A naked one year old at the Breakfast table (cows don’t wear shirts)

You can imagine how crazy breakfast gets with toddlers involved. The other morning during breakfast, Lydia woke up first and was standing and squirming in her chair.  This is pretty usual, despite the resounding chorus from me and Rachel to “Sit down please”.  After a few minutes she decided to take her shirt off.  When Rachel and I began protesting and telling her that she needed to wear her shirt at the table she responded quite naturally “Cows don’t wear shirts!”.  Where did that come from?

Rachel and I were laughing so hard that she got her shirt of and finished her breakfast half naked.  Of course then she was complaining that milk was dripping on her tummy.  I’m not sure when she decided that she was a cow for breakfast, but she is right, Cows don’t wear shirts!

Message from Lydia at work

Here is a short message that Lydia left me a while ago. I just found a copy of it on my hard drive and thought it was fun. She talks a lot more now. if you’re ever bored and want to have a long chat just give her a ring.
