Chicken Lourdes

Lourdes saw Chicken Little at the movies and now it's out on DVD. I thought she would be excited if I bought it for her. It came with a couple of PEZ dispensers. Well she really enjoyed having the DVD and the PEZ dispensers. She took them with her when we went shopping at Kroger. When we got home, we opened the DVD and put it in the player and thought she would sit there enthralled. She didn't care.

Today, Adam brought in some Chicken Little glasses for Lourdes so I thought I'd post a pic.

You suck!!

We were at a Rivermen game a litte ways back. The referee made what seemed to be bad call, at least in the eyes of the fans. They expressed their disappointment with the ref by chanting "REF YOU SUCK" for a short time. After the crowd died down, a little voice chimed in "You suck! You suck!". Guess who it was.

Well if you guessed Lourdes, then you are correct. She hasn't forgot it and still says it. In fact, I think that she thinks it's an appropriate salutation. I've called from work to see how Raquel and Lourdes are and she'll answer the phone "You suck!" So if she ever says that to you, please don't take it the wrong way.

The 3 foot giant

Lourdes had her 2 year checkup with her pediatrician. She measured a whopping 36" putting her in the 94th percentile. She weighed 28.5 lbs on the day of the visit and that was a little lower than her normal weight. She had caught a bug the previous week and was spewing from both ends for a few days. Even after she was over the bug, she easily gagged and spit up for a few more days. She's all better now and weighed in at 31.5 lbs this week. She also has big feet.

By popular demand

Here's my fearless circus performer. Sorry the picture is a little grainy, but we're still getting used to our new digital camera. Our previous little Kyocera died after almost a year and it was still under warranty. When Radio Shack couldn't fix it, they offered us a new Casio.

Lourdes turned two last Sunday. We waited until this weekend to celebrate since I had to work last weekend. She had a Blue's Clues cake and Chicken Little place settings (couldn't find Blue's Clues stuff at the last minute). She really enjoyed having "Happy Birthday" sung to her and blew out her candle like a big girl.

Mother Nature also turned on the "Terrible Two's" switch recently. Even so, she's not too bad...yet.
