Lilah is an intense child. She is passionate and emotional. She is funny and loves to hug! She is so intelligent and understands how things work. She has always been a talker and it is so fun to talk with her now. We can have real conversations and her little mind just spins and spins when she is thinking of something. She adores her little sister, but she still doesn't know how to be gentle.
There are many days where Lilah needs a hug. She is so self aware and knows when she needs a hug. She is quick to tears when things go wrong. These emotions are hard to manage. I just repeat often that she is intense. I am pretty certain Lilah gets intensity from me. I am pretty intense too.
I was telling Lilah the other day how she has gotten so big and how she used to be small enough to be in my belly. She looked at me with alarm and said "we don't eat people".
I enjoy watching her grow and change every day. I often wonder what she will be like when she grows up. I hope she will get a bit more of a thicker skin, but I hope she doesn't lose her passion!
I love this spunky monkey!

Amelia at 21 Months
This little girl is such a ray of sunshine in our lives. She is so full of sweetness. There is something about her that you can see her sweet soul oozing out of her. She is a stubborn one and a fire cracker. She wants it her way and she wants it now! As a baby she didn't cry much. She is pretty laid back and generally a happy little girl.
Amelia is a tattle tale and it is pretty hilarious. She will reprimand her (older) sister if she is doing something she shouldn't she will just yell "LIYAHHH". This goes a little far though because she will blame her sister for everything most things have nothing to do with her sister, but she will blame her.
I am pretty sure her first sentence was "bye bye LiYah". They were sledding and she wanted a new driver so she booted her sister by saying bye bye Lilah! It was really funny. This was right around 17 months or so.
I think her vocabulary is pretty good. She is smart and can easily tell you what she wants. She doesn't have real conversations yet, but she will answer questions. She says things like "Mama's here" and "night night daddy". She loves the cats and chases them everywhere.
She is gentle and loving and loves babies. She will be a good babysitter some day!
I love this sweet thing!

My daughters are amazing!
I have completely neglected this blog. I need to keep it up so I have a history I can follow. I love being a Mom! I sometimes think that I am not good enough at it, but I do try to do my best. I laugh every day with my girls. They are funny and spunky and sassy! These are all traits I know well since I think I am the same. A day doesn't go by that I don't want to tell a story of something either of them said. Facebook makes it easy to do that, some may get annoyed hearing it. I will try my best to blog about some of these stories so I can remember them.
