Lila keeps doing these cute things that I want to remember.

We have a Little Mermaid doll that my mom saved from when I was little.  It has a removable bikini top type thing, and underneath is a Barbie-like chest.  Oh, first of all, there's a little cord on the back that you can pull and she'll talk.  Jake was making the Little Mermaid talk the other night and Lila didn't "yike" it, of course.  So now she furrows her eyebrows, shakes her head, and says, "I don't yike mermaid talk."  Very funny.  Anyway, She realized yesterday that the bikini top came off, so she was taking it off, saw the boobs, paused, and said, "Milk?"  lol.  A week or so ago, Jake had his shirt off and she saw his chest and said, "Daddy milk?" lol.  So we had to explain to her that Daddy doesn't have milk, but mommy has milk.  And yesterday I explained that mermaid doesn't have milk either.  So now from time to time, she'll say to me while shaking her head --

Lila: Mermaid milk.
Me: No, the mermaid doesn't have milk.
Lila: Daddy milk.
Me: No, Daddy doesn't have milk.
Lila: (Nodding her head) Mommy milk.
Me: Yes, Mommy has milk.


Last week, we had her friend Lucas over and he slipped and fell on the tile by our front door.  Lila did that a few times when we first moved here, and if she's running through, she'll slow down and walk across the tile and start running again when she hits the carpet.  Anyway, Lucas started crying, so Ann (his mom) hugged and comforted him.  Then Lila walked over to the tile, sat down, said, "Ohh, fall down."  So I asked if she wanted a hug, and she makes a hurt face, nods her head, comes to me for a hug, and then goes back to the tile and "falls", etc etc.  That's a game she likes to play now.
