♥: 20months ago I had a baby...

Yesterday marked the 1st day of FALL & Lilith turned TWENTY months old!
Exactly ONE week from today is OCTOBER!

I know I said I would post the other day during nap time, but the wrath of her booster shots got the best of us. We had a hellish few days. A fever of 102, started around 3am on Wednesday morning. To add to the chaos that already existed- her bottom canines popped threw. On the brighter side shes been back to her normal awesome self as of yesterday, & her bottom fangs are ADORABLE!!

In other news my cat still out weighs Lilith. At her Dr. on Tuesday she weighed in at 19 pounds 8 ounces. My daughter is a PEANUT! Her pediatrician isn't worried about it, but wants me to add some calories to her diet. Both her father & I were skinny children, and it's just in her genes. We tried Pediasure & she choked down about 1/2 of it (making faces the entire time). No amount of powder NesQuick will make her drink that! I've been adding olive oil to her food & giving her more potatoes. It's hard to fatten up a toddler without getting the addicted to sweets or junk food. Yesterday she ate a whole avocado for lunch, making me one happy mama! Shes really weird about lunch, she NEVER wants it. Big breakfast & a giant dinner, but lunch is always a struggle.

I have been making a list of Lilith's vocabulary. It's growing wayy too fast. Not just words but now letters too. She can recognize some letter, & pick them out of a line-up, & tell me what they are. When we sing the ABC's she knows certain clusters of letters. I think here favorite is 'Z' ! I was told by a specialist last week she is advanced in the reading department & is well beyond a majority of her peers. She also stressed that we should take special interest & harness this gift, because she is on the road to being a very early reader.

Tomorrow we are going to a town fair. Deep in the woods, well past grandma's house! There are all kinds of events, contests, & horse drawn wagon rides. My two main reasons for going are to see Burt the raccoon who uses puppetry, American Sign Language, & storytelling! My other reason is I had entered a digital photo contest & got an e-mail stating one of my photos had placed in the contest! Oh & I really want to take Lil on a horse drawn wagon ride!

OK enough words, on to the pictures!
Coloring (in an medium) is getting intense. Crayons, colored pencils, pens, markers, chalk, etc.
