Overheard

Ben to Lydia during bathtime:
"Lydia, what is the square root of 1? Can you say, '1'?"

"Lydia, can you say 'buns'?"

Lydia to Pup as she placed him in a laundry basket:
"Nye Nye" (night night)

Lydia to herself as she was playing in the kitchen:
"no, no NO Leedl-a" (That is the best phonetic spelling I can render of the way she says her name right now.)
Over the past several days I have heard her telling herself "no Leedl-a." Sometimes she is about to do something she knows is a "no-no" and sometimes she just says it while she is playing!

Just the other day she discoverd that this cabinet is the perfect size for her to sit in. She has had a great time opening it, sitting down, trying to close herself in, getting out, shutting the door etc. etc.

I think Ben is trying to turn Lydia into a math geek. (Not that there's anything wrong with that.)

I fell asleep while reading comments...that's never happened before. But I suppose asking the square root of minus one is just as bad as trying to converse in Latin with one's child, which is what Brian does.

It's cute that she likes to fit herself into small spaces. She's also saying hi, Leedla, bye Leedla.

Your phonetic spelling was much better than I could ever even attempt. I often try and realize it just isn't working. Lydia is at such a fun age and glad you are able to enjoy it and capture the memories.
