Lately, I have had about as much interest in blogging as I've had in March Madness.

And if you know me at all, you know that amount is ZERO.

I've been a little sick and dealing with all the crazy hormones that come with this secondary infertility junk.

But, I thought I'd share this with you. Or maybe I'm just putting it out there, so I'll remember to put it in her book, either way....

Conversations with Lorelai:

Mommy: "Lorelai, can I have a kiss please?"
Lorelai: "Nope. ha ha"
Mommy: pretends to cry
Lorelai: runs up to mommy, jumps in her lap and says "no worry mommy, you find anudder one."

When I ask Lorelai if she'd like to go to gymnastics, she replies with "yay! gymjumpsticks!"

She thinks the word "bumblebee" is pronounced "bunglebee" and will fight you over the pronunciation. I find it's best to give in to her, because she won't talk like this forever.

Aw man, that girl makes my heart melt.

By the way, how old do you think Lorelai was here?

5 months?
There are some words Lexie mispronounced that I rarely corrected because it was so cute. When she learned, she would inform us that the old way was wrong (as if we didn't know). It changes all too soon.
The kiss story is priceless...

A day old?

BreAnna Fowler said...

Don't know for sure, guessing 10 months?

So precious. I am so excited to start having funny conversations with Trey. Right now...well, he just says "Bah"! No arguing about that!!!

I think Lorelai was 9 mo!

Is there a prize? HA HA! :>)

I haven't felt much like blogging, either. Or much like doing anything else, for that matter.

I remember when Christian stopped calling a volcano, a ball-cano. Broke my heart.

I'm going to guess... hmmmm... she's pretty small for her age, so, maybe, six weeks?

I'm guessing six months old....

JAMIE'S CREW said...

Brittany said...

Love gymjumpsticks! So sweet! :)

I'm guessing about 7 months!!

Brittany said...

Oh, yeah. I have a video on my blog of Layton mispronouncing jelly beans - he says "belly beans!" You'll love it! :)

Oh Rach,
L is awesome with her conversation!
One of my "little darlings", use to
pronounce, strawberry, "hi-see-bee.
Ha
Can not believe L was ever that hairless on top ! (still beautiful, though)
Was she 8 months?

Sending the love gurl,
Alyssa's aunt helen

Such cute stories to match acute girl! I'll guess 6 1/2 months old- love the baby bikini!

Uma and Wil said...

I'm going with the majority and guessing 6. The one and only time I saw her was at Rebecca's baby shower, and I think she was about that old and that big then.

Ashley said...

At first I was shocked and thought "they shaved her head!" (I just woke up so I am not that sharp yet.) Then I almost woke my husband up laughing at Storms answer. If I was guessing (since I have no children and don't know how old they look at what ages) I would have to say...1 yr?

Rachel said...

My guess is 9 months.

About her grammar I would probably let it go for now. I am just starting to correct my 4 year old with her mispronunciations. Every time I do I feel like I am loosing part of her I will never get back. I love that Hope says Tormado for Tornado! I am going to miss it when she finally gets it right!

Jesstern said...

I'm guessing 8 months since she looks like 18 in the pic. :)

So how old is she?

Elizabeth Byler Younts said...

i'm thinking 6-7 mos old????

btw...i am feeling good. hsg is in a few weeks. so far i'm just kidn of hanging out and praying. :-)

PS: I have a giveaway that is a novel newly published regarding infertility. i would love it if you entered and if you mentioned it to your readers! :-)

I am with you on the lack of blogging momentum. With this move, and... well no other excuse, I am just failing to blog and I even have a good "not so smart mom moment" to blog about! Hmm, maybe tomorrow ( i say that everyday, ha).
I love the conversations with Lorelai.. and I loved seeing her in person a couple weeks ago, such a character.
I am guessing 6 months.

Lucky Irish Gal said...

Our daughters have the same name! Mine is spelled Lorelei.

Mixed Up Chromosomes said...

I also thought she went bald or got a summer 'cut! 11 months, she makes Victoria look like a babydoll, and I thought Viccers was large and in charge, guess not!

Our Complete Family said...

Cute, cute, cute pic! Hmm, not sure how old to guess, but those cheeks are just begging to be squeezed~ adorable!
I've been in a blogging funk lately, too. How are we gonna snap ourselves out of it hun?
I know~ our sno cone date with teh kids this summer will help us!!!
Happy weekend wishes to you guys~ Les

Brenda said...

I'd say 6 months. She sure was bald!

Ky is 5 years old and still misprounounces a few things that I love.

KDoug said...

She was 6 months old and HUGE! She weighs the same now as she did then, right?

Monica said...

I absolutly love kid talk, where they come up with some of the pronunciations is beyond me!

I would say Lorelai is 8 months old in the picture.

I left you bloggy love at the Mom.
