CRAZY FUN PICTURES!
Joli has been super duper fun lately! She's hilarious and really does copy just about everything we say (so we have to be careful!). Funny stuff:

FUNNY JOLI STORY #1:
MOM: "Joli, what does the dog say?"
JOLI: "Ruff ruff"
MOM: "Joli, what does the horse say?"
JOLI: "Nayy Nayy"
MOM: "Joli, what does the bird say?"
JOLI: "Tweet tweet"
DAD: "Joli, what does Grammy say?"
JOLI: "PED!!!!"

JOLI STORY #2:
Just after Joli's bath, she lay down on the bed, pulled up toes to her nose and said, "Oooh! Smells good!"... then, she farted... and said, "Uh-oh, I farted."


JOLI STORY #3:
Joli and Mommy were lying in bed. Joli turned away from Mommy and got really quiet. So, Mommy peeked over to see what Joli was doing. To Mommy's surprise (and horror...), Joli had her finger in her nose, looked up at Mommy, and said, "Go Away."

Some of JOLI'S FAVORITE SENTENCES:

"Momma, ice cream, now."
"Gordie, BE QUIET!"
"Daaaaad, dance-dance-dance!"
"C'mon, stop it."
"I'll get it."
"You help me."
"Oh, graaayt" (thanks to Tita Grace)
"C'mon, Lolo, let's dance."
"Lola, popsicle, now."
"Fishies, want orange?" -- (we then noticed there were about a dozen little oranges at the bottom of her fish tank... oh grayyyyt)

Okay, okay, the pictures.. that's what you really wanted anyways....

She's 20 months old!

Wow! Joli is now 20 months old and is amazing! This week, she's, once again, a finalist in the Babyzone.com photo contest! She was a finalist last month too! Here are a few pictures from the past few weeks:

It's been a while....

Sorry it's been so long since we've updated the site, all! It's been one heck of a crazy month! I'll post some 20 month photos sometime tomorrow.

We are in the process of buying our first house (hence, the lack of correspondence) and have been so busy in that process. Joli now goes to "Lucy's Day Care" 4x a week, and Tita Grace takes her to music class 1x a week. Yes, music class.

Joli's awesome. Totally conversational, very cute, very polite, very kind, very thoughtful. She's totally outgrown her clothes (18 months) and has "caught up" with the rest of the kids her age. When she was born early, the doctors all said she'd catch up physically around this time. She's just about as tall as other kids her age, too! Unfortunately, we need to go buy her new clothes! She's definately into the 2T stage!
