The Byerley Family

Too cool for school! Lydia at the water park in her stylin shades.

Tags: Lydia,

Eliana was makin’ tracks in her little Snowflakes. She did great for her first time on the mountain!

Lydia enjoyed her first time in the snow!

Happy 3rd Birthday, Eliana! (A late post…but also my first movie made on the iPad!)

Halloween Cuteness!

Lydia and Eliana—the ladybugs

The “Punk-‘um” Patch

Eliana: Then…and now.

The Special Party

Eliana: Mommy, I think we should go to the special party.

Me: The special party?

Eliana: Yeah, it’s got balloons and a rocket ship and slides. And puppies and kitties. And all our friends.

Me: That sounds like a fun party!

Eliana: Yeah. And it’s got a drinking fountain and games and it’s a special party. But I can’t remember where it is.

Me: Oh no! How are we going to get there if you can’t remember where it is?

Eliana: Oh, I remember. You go across the street and go straight. Then you go south and you’re there! It’s just a quick drive.

(as we arrive home from daycare…)

Eliana: Sorry, mommy. I can’t play with you right now. I’ve got lots to do.

Me: Lots to do?

Eliana (making a dismissive hand gesture): Yeah. Like sort money. And stuff with tape. Lots of stuff to do.

Me: Oh. I thought we could maybe paint together if you wanted.

Eliana: It’s okay, mommy. I can play with you later when I’m done with my stuff.

Me: Umm, okay.
