Logan had school yesterday so Lilly and I had some free time to hang out. We went to lunch, got a little something sweet and then went clothes shopping. Was it too much to ask to be good in the store? She decided she didn't want to be held or stay near me. She of course decided to scream and cry and within seconds nearly the whole store was staring at me. I was actually done and about to pay and what do you know....the checkout line was terribly long. Even though I am used to this "2 year old display", I spared the rest of the store that was sick of hearing it. I practically dropped the stuff on the floor and ran out of the store.
So....when Lilly took a nap at 2:30pm and wasn't waking up when it got dark....I didn't wake her up and let her sleep all night. Harsh but she paid me back by waking up at 5am.

Misc cuteness
It doesn't get any sweeter than your 3 year old telling you "you are my very best friend in the whole world". She will not being saying this when she is 13 so I am eating it up!
I then told her a few days later "Logan, you are my best friend." To which she replied, "no, I'm not. I am your little girl". That was also a super cute response.
I love being able to hang with them so much. Logan has become my little buddy and we enjoy going places together as she points out letters and numbers and I can listen and notice all that she is taking in. It is really neat to view the world through eyes that are seeing everything new and fresh for the first time. It is a humbling experience as a believer when you think of all that God does everyday for us and we are just seeing it as an every day occurance. To a 3 year old, the miracles seem more fresh and real. It is encouraging.
Lilly on the other hand is 2 and that's fun....ha! As Logan and I are looking for something in a store, Lilly takes the opportunity to sprint as far away from me as far away as possible. She is "over" sitting in the cart and yet she won't stay anywhere near a safe distance away so...it is a lose lose for me. She is dang cute though and she gets away with too much. However, she does say...."mama, want hold me" (pick me up) and "want gum" way too much. Yes, she loves gum and she actually chews it without swallowing it for quite some time. However, Kirk has found gum on the tv and on his favorite chair....oops....
I am hoping and praying Lilly will get out of some of her "terrible twos" before May 21st gets here as baby 3 will be zapping my energy at night!!
