Honey Don’t

Thursday, January 10th, 2008

I have to watch my words carefully these days. After an hour and a half of begging Lilia to nap the other day (Please, honey, close your eyes; Honey, aren’t you tired?; Go to sleep, honey), she has started callling me “Honey” when I do something she doesn’t like. Such as changing her diaper –”No, no honey”. Or taking her oatmeal bowl (I was only taking it to refill it, but she thought it was going away for good)–”Honey, Honey, Noooo”. Oh boy. I haven’t heard any stronger words yet (at least not that I could recognize).

Lilia has started making this face when she is upset or angry or feels like we are being mean to her. She tilts her neck down, raises her shoulder, and pouts. It is totally adorable, and I can’t help but laugh when she does it. Below is a version of The Face. We were asking her not to do something dangerous with the chair.
