Still cute

She's been very very busy being cute.

Her mommy and daddy have been very very busy with dissertations, journal articles, and applications--thus the lack of updates.

She's started to throw herself down bodily and commence wailing when she doesn't get her way. Still cute somehow.

Also, her language skills are getting better, which is proving useful to her as her mother is unable to deny her much of anything when it is, after all, expressed so clearly and emphatically.

"Dis! Dis! Dis!" she'll say, which means "Juice". Like "cookie" we've no idea who taught her "juice". But somebody did. She knows what it is, knows that she wants it, and now knows how to get it. (We cut it with water, but still).

For some impressive fireworks, try giving the girl milk (or straight water!) instead of juice.
