Tuesday, July 14
{195/365} When I found out that Liam was a boy, Emily was hanging out at the mall with her grandma. Of course she "ordered" a sister so when I called to break the news that she would have a brother, she sounded a bit disappointed. I then explained how lucky she was to have a baby brother...she would always be the "princess" and would never have to share her girly toys. She bought that. ;) What she didn't quite grasp was the fact that the tiny baby would soon become a toddler and touch and eat anything not nailed down. All Polly Pockets and toys with small parts had to be hidden and only taken out when tiny hands couldn't grab them. While Liam was asleep today, Emily quickly fished out one of the "forbidden" games...a magnetic building toy. We had a great time building and knocking down our creations and eventually Emily designed a fun pyramid home for Liam's Fisher Price fireman. She thought Liam would love it. That little boy may have been out of site but he's never out of mind. :)
