jasper lilith has developed this little habit of pulling her diaper changing pad down from the counter, dragging it into the living room and lying down on it to watch her noggin shows…or she will drag it into the kitchen while i am cooking and lay down on it to keep me company…

finally!! perserverance has paid off and jasper lilith is coloring!! not eating the crayons, not organizing the markers, not arranging the chalk but actually using them all!!
