Let’s get ready to rumble

We are watching the Democratic debate tonight.  For a while anyways.  There’s nothing on TV anyways.

Lily was asleep quickly tonight on account of her skipping her nap.  She was gone after about 6 minutes of reading.  She had a busy day – trip to the mall, ballet.  I picked up her Progress Report at school today.  She is your typical, average student in all areas.  All areas EXCEPT conduct where she is ABOVE AVERAGE!!  That’s my girl!

The year is 1/12th of the way gone.  I’m not really one to lament “how fast time flies”.  It’s never felt as if it were flying to me.  It seems like just yesterday that it was, well…. yesterday!

Lily and I built a Lego wall around Leo this morning before breakfast.  I don’t know who enjoyed it more – me, Lily or Leo!  Leo was acting like a caged monster and he kept tearing down our wall.  Lily was doing emergency repairs while I kept building. 

Before I left for work, Lily came to me and asked me to tickle her because she had the hiccups.  “Please tickle me!”  I obliged.  It was hilarious, she was giggling and hiccuping and screaming, “Thank you!!  Don’t stop!”

We took the two of them to get pictures yesterday.  Don’t worry – you’ll get one.  I know who comes to the web page and the blog.  You’ll get one.

I get to brag about the weather some more.  It’s 60 and sunny this morning.  Windows open, birds singing.  It’s been a fairly mild winter in Florida.  Just one hard freeze, which, honestly, did the yard some good.  I’m starting to worry about my bougainvilla.  They aren’t looking to hot.
