Lydia ~ 27 Months

Well, month 27 for Lydia was pretty much covered in our Christmas pictures, and included a LOT of traveling, but these are a few pictures of some of her "treasures" from Christmas. Above, she is sitting on her new Dora trike from PawPaw and Nana Anthony ... and yes, she is sitting in our living room because we have had few days with temperatures even in the 40s! She loves all of the sounds and lights on her new bike! Lydia also got [well, got handed down] a new kitchen set! She loves to be in the kitchen when Mommy is cooking, so now she has her own set of utensils, stove, mixer, etc. - all of which she LOVES!

Lydia has continued to learn so many new things. She has pretty much mastered basic colors and shapes, but has really begun to recognize more and more alphabet letters! She can usually recognize at least 10 at this point and is starting to "draw" some letters, although they are often backwards (which we are told is normal for little ones just learning).

Daddy and Mommy both celebrated birthdays during Lydia's 27th month as well, but unfortunately, we left the camera at home when we went out of town to celebrate... hopefully all of the abundance of pics taken last month wil compensate! :) Of all of our gifts and blessings, our little gift from the Lord is our most special!
