At Olive Garden over dinner:
Daddy: Lily, who is in charge here? Lily or Mommy?
Lily: (looks at me) Mommy...(she pauses for effect)...no charge! No charge Mommy!
At lunch with the boys:
Me: eat your food, please, Lily.
Lily: Dat not food, Mommy. Dat strawberries.
As mommy walks by Claire holding a dirty diaper:
Claire: (at attention, ears perked up, tracking the diaper with her eyes)
Lily: uh-uh, Claire! No! Don't eat it! Eeeeeeewwwwwwww!
Claire: (puts nose back on paws and sighs)
On the day we had our triple doctor appointment, I asked Lily if she would like to go to the doctor.
Lily: Yes, Mommy, I go to doctor.
Me: ok. Let's go. (I set Taevin down, from my lap to the floor, to get our things ready to go)
Taevin: maniacal wailing
Lily: mommy? Make Taevin go to doctor too!
Lily sneezes. She looks around, but no one says anything.
Lily: Bless you, Me!!
Cookie and Andrew are riding with us in the truck.
Cookie: Lily, you're beautiful.
Andrew: ::squeals with displeasure::
Cookie: Andrew, you're beautiful too. (Andrew smiles)
Lily: No, no Cookie! Beautiful Me!!
At Cracker Barrel, while looking at the toys, Lily spies a pair of black glasses with bushy eyebrows and a big nose attached.
Lily: ::pointing at glasses:: Grandpa!!
(at which point, several patrons and staff members all crack up and run to tell their friends what the little girl said)
Grandma Jan showed up for Lily's birthday visit with a stress fracture in her foot and, consequently, wearing a "boot" to help it heal.
Grandma: Good morning! How is Lily?
Lily: Where other shoe go?
She is soo cute! I love "Bless you, Me!"
