That's So Naughy



Yep, "that's so naughty" has become Libby's catch phrase for anything and everything, whether it fits or not. When it does not, I completely crack up into giggles, and then she says it over and over again.

We had a lovely dinner at Colleen and Doug's on Saturday night. Molly, our guide from China looks exactly the same. We were happy to hear that she married (by civil ceremony) and will be having a traditional wedding this fall in her husband's village. It was also nice to meet David Pan, the man who makes your arrangements for travel and hotels when you are in China. A pleasant addition was Vivian, who is a guide in another province. We had many laughs. Molly was so sweet and brought both Jai and Libby a kite. Libby and Jai played together the best they ever have and it was wonderful to see. They only had a few skirmishes, where as before, that was pretty much all they had. We have noticed Libby's interaction with other kids has changed so drastically this past month. Most of her friends are within two months of each other, and they all seem to make the big leaps around the same time. I love listening to her when she is talking with Jai, Tenzing and Lexa.

We went to MOA yesterday to see Kai Lan as part of the Toddler Tuesday series. Lexa and Rena met us there. Neither girl would get near the poor person in the Kai Lan suit, but both enthusiastically did the dragon dance. Libby and Lexa are terrors together. They seem to bring it out in each other. There were two very tired mamas who finally left the mall :)

Libby seems to be the one amongst her friends who is really shooting up. Her shoe size went from a 6-1/2 at the beginning of summer to an 8! She has grown probably an inch taller, yet her weight still hovers at 30 pounds. I do have to brag about how silly and funny she is. She makes me laugh just about every day. Her smile is so big and open, I just love to see it on her face.

We are looking at doing an addition to the house to increase the size of Libby's bedroom, get a pantry and also a very coveted closet. Our first contractor came over with plans yesterday. I am shocked to say, Eric actually liked them! We are waiting to get bids from several others and will then make the big decision; add on, or move.

A gorgeous day here, and we are off to enjoy it with other moms and kids.
