Yea for puddles and other random updates

For now, our technical difficulties seem to be solved. I'm not sure what exactly happened but our computer recognized the camera today.

Libby is really a water baby. She gravitates towards any water she can find and will play in it. She loves pools, the bathtub, puddles, pretty much anything she can splash in. Here's some pictures of her playing in puddles.





Sometimes I catch a glimpse of the future when I watch Libby play. The other day she picked up her toy phone and was walking around saying "Hello... yeah.... yeah.... okay.... yeah...." I see her at about 13 doing the same thing.

She also has a ton more words now but it takes a while to decode what she is saying. On Friday when I dropped her off at daycare, the sitter asked me "What does 'key' mean? Libby says is all the time." I think "key" is Mickey Mouse because she says it when we watch Mickey Mouse Clubhouse and maybe she wants to watch it during the day. She then asked me at pickup time what "chi" meant because Lib had been saying that all day long on Friday. Her 8-year-old daughter figured out that it meant "fishy" because she said it while they were looking at pictures of fish. Libby was so excited that someone understood her!


We found Libby's toys lined up like this the other morning when we woke her up. She's very much into organizing her things and they all have to be just right before she'll stop working on it. I do not think this was a coincidence that they were all facing the same direction. I think maybe she wanted to watch a parade!


"Daddy's hat is cool!"


"I'm ready for school!"
