Already mocking her big sister

Everyone asks how it is with two kids. The truth is, Quinn is the easiest of the two. Lilla has been our little stinker as of late. She’s a great big sister to Quinn. However with the arrival of her little sister has also come the arrival of a little (rather big) thing called the […]

Category 5 hurricane coming through

Sure she masquerades around as a two-year old with a toddler accent and cute button nose. But this little girl has the ability to lift the contents of her room and drop them all over every area of our house. Within minutes. Case and point – the evidence below.

Our newest addition makes the cutest little noises. She squeaks and grunts and squeaks some more. She is just the sweetest little baby. And I’m trying to take mental pictures/videos of all of her little sweet noises. Figured posting here would also help with that.

This is how all of Lilla’s negotiations start out. And believe me, she’s quite the negotiator. Oh and she never forgets a thing. Something for you to remember the next time you come up against her and her tactics. Pretty sure she gets this from the lawyer in our family. Thanks Dad.

  I know I know it’s been over a year since I’ve posted, well anything. I plan on backtracking and posting videos and photos. Over this past year Lilla really has grown into her own little (sassy) person. She cracks us up every day with her vocabulary and spunky personality. She is quite the little […]

Our Little Escape Artist

Our annual holiday pilgrimage to the Midwest was exhilarating. And exhausting. And I mean that in the best possible way. We drove all over to see family and friends. And lucky for us, Lilla is a professional car sleeper. Seriously, five minutes into every drive, she was in toddler la la land. Thanks to a […]
