Stink eye!
If looks could kill...Lily has mastered the 2 year old bratty-brat routine. Here I caught one of her evil glances on Easter Day. She loves to say, "Mama, you're being MEAN!" "Beeee nice!!!" when scolded. We are in trouble!

The PV Farmer's Market
Taking advantage of the fact that we had a sleepover night this past weekend, Gail and I decided to take the girls...and Owen...to the Farmer's Market up at Penninsula Center. We bought some lovely asparagus, cauliflower, and strawberries. There also was a stand with fantastic Greek stuff. We bought some dolmas, baklava, spanakopita, hummus, and pita. It was fabulous! I think Greek food (minus the tomatoes) is my favorite food ever.
Here is a photo of Kailie, Lily and Taylor enjoying their Rainbow Sno-cones. At the very end we had a Pinkberry. Yes, pinkberry AND sno-cones. Oh so good!

Santa Claus...
It is amazing what kids remember. I just started thinking about this yesterday when I bravely decided to take Lily (after-daycare, sans-nap) AND Owen to Del Amo Mall. In desperation for what I imagined was to come, I told Lily that if she was good the entire time at the mall, I would let her have ice cream. She actually was quite good the whole time, but we ran out of time to get some at the mall. So we drove all the way home and as we pulled up to the house she says, "Where's Daddy...is he getting me my ice cream???"
Also, through the holidays there were 2 billboards on our normal route home from Grandma and Grandpa's. They were Coca-Cola billboards with the iconic Santa drinking a Coca-Cola bottle.

Lily loved these billboards. Every time we would drive by she'd say something like, "SANTA!!! He's drinking his juice!!!" or "Be careful Santa, don't spill it!!!". The day they took those billboards down was a sad one for her. She STILL says "Where's SANTA?!??!" every time we drive by those exact billboards.
Hot 'n Tot Field Trip...
We met Grandma and Renny at the Hot 'n Tot in Lomita...
I have driven past it a zillion times and the cool retro sign caught my attention. Gail says her mom used to go there years ago. Renny had never been and Darren is always down for a good breakfast. We were impressed!

The coffee was quite good, and the hashbrowns were great. The portions were huge. Lily especially liked the yellow lollipop that came with her french toast. She was also very excited that her "school" was right across the street.

Lily is a trip...
Just got this IM from Darren:
Darren says:
Lily was hilarious this morning...we smelled a skunk that got hit by a car by Harbor Park and she kept saying "Eeewww....stinky skunk...that's gross" and then she told Alicia (her teacher) when we walked into class.
She really is starting to say some hilarious stuff.

Supadupabowl
Today was the superbowl. I couldn't quite tell you what happened during the game...except that Lily played dress-up, Owen spit up about 5 times, and our guests were well-fed. To me, that's a good party! I think the Giants won. LOL.
Anyhow, we had a fun time. Thanks Gail and Renny for hanging with us. Lily was oh-so-excited to have a party. When we were at Ralphs, she stopped each passerby and announced that we were having a party. On a serious sidenote, the carts at Ralphs are way too small. It's quite annoying to put an infant in the actual cart and a toddler in the front and barely be able to fit a pack of gum in the friggin cart. I had to take the bagger up on the "help" that they offer to get to the car, or else I'd be pushing with one hand and dragging a 24 pack of Diet Pepsi behind me. Oy!
Lily is just cracking me up daily at this point. She is so into DORA, and the Reindeer song, and Target. She also is getting great at brushing her teeth and she loves her "lipstick" which is actually chapstick. Today she danced and danced with me when I put Abbey Road on the stereo. She absolutely was obsessed with "Here Comes The Sun". She also dug the Beach Boys and Harry Belafonte.
2 year olds get a bad rap. What a fun age this is. It has its highs and lows for sure, but this age can sure be alot of fun!
