Note: There are no flowers in this post!

One of Lydia's new things to do is go to "Wheaton" (Wheaton College) and smell the flowers. This means that we often walk over to Wheaton College, sometimes smell the flowers, and sometimes we need to carry everybody home. Lydia's uncle, Spencer, was once asked why he was bringing the double stroller on a walk in Vancouver while all the kids were walking or riding their bikes. After seeing him load it up with bikes and kids on the way back it is now recognized as a veteran maneuver.

This week we walked over to "Wheaton" a couple of times. Once with a trike. Once with Lydia's babies and their stroller. Both times we carried Lydia and company home afterwards. These are not veteran maneuvers.

Here are some photos from this week.

Lydia also says a lot of new things every couple of days. We have lots of laughs with this. Sometimes they are good things. Sometimes not so much. She also seems to be under the impression that when she closes her eyes nobody can see her. Often she says things that we don't even say and we are not quite sure where she gets them from.

One recent conversation while Momma was helping Lydia go to the bathroom:

"Dadda, turn on the fan please."

"Lydia, you want the fan on?"

"The fan is for pooping."

Another one when getting ready for a nap:

"Lydia, come here, I have Snoopy socks for you."

"Snoopy socks?! Yay! I am so excited."

While washing the vehicle, each with a sponge:

"Dadda, this is soooo much fun."

Another conversation from this week went like this:

"Lydia, are you allowed to go in the office without momma or dadda?"

"No."

"Lydia, were you in the office without momma or dadda?"

"Yes... I'm so busted."

Have a great week!
