Bananas

This is what happens when you spend too much time at home, alone, without other people to talk too...for a week....

Happy Halloween!

Lilias point of view

We were tagged. I asked Lilia to fill this one out.
So here are her answers:

Trios: 3 joys, 3 fears, 3 goals, 3 current obsessions and 3 random facts:

Joys
1. Playing Peek A Boo
2. When Daddy comes home and plays with me or hugs me
3. Exploring anything new

Fears
1. Some loud noises
2. When Mommy walks out of the room and I see her go I think she won’t return
3. That if I don’t get fed right when I’m hungry I might starve

Goals
1. Walking on my own
2. Teaching these people my language. I speak fluently, they just can’t understand me
3. Getting my entire family, including these two fuzzy people Mommy calls BoscoRioMeow, together in one place permanently.

Current Obsessions
1. Investigating everything
2. Walking along furniture or with Mommy or Daddys help
3. Anything with lights and sound

Random Facts
1. My butt is ticklish. Right below my butt between my thigh and cheek. Mommy likes to tuck my blanket in and then I squirm because it tickles!
2. I like to go into the pose “downward dog” and hang out like that
3. When I hear sounds I try to repeat them. I often match their pitch (like sirens, dogs, and random beeps on the computer)

I tag whoever is reading right now

The Countdown

It's unavoidable. It's coming. It's almost here.
Nate is continuing on tour while Lilia and I stay home in Chicago and he flies out on Tuesday. We did lots and lots of thinking, and came to the conclusion that this was best all around. Lilia does great on the road. She proved it again this week while we joined Nate in Peoria, IL, just a short jog from Chicago. But the travel in between towns is what gets to both her and I. With this particular tour traveling is a weekly thing. Plus the travel days will be getting longer as the miles stretch further and further between each city.
Also, this way Nate will be able to fly with the cast, and not have to make those long drives either. Plus, Nate will get to keep his job (in this economy it's a must) and we'll still get to see each other when he comes home for a visit in a few weeks over a Monday/Tuesday travel day, and when we fly out to spend a few weeks with him in November.

Still, we are going to miss him. Terribly. Not only will I miss my best friend and husband, but we'll miss the moments like these:

Now you can Jam

I think you should be able to see the Jam Session with Lilia now?

I stupidly had that video set to private on youtube. So I could see it, but no one else could. Doh!

This is how Lilia does it

She has discovered....the mirror!

'Cause I like too

Lilia figured out if she does this:


It make me laugh.

So now she does it all the time. Nothing wrong with that, I love to laugh!

Good Fun

The other day I was at a "gently" used Childrens store and came across an almost new Leap Frog Table for $11! What a steal. After cleaning it up we set it on the floor for Lilia to play with and this was her reaction:
