Duck Slippers

Tillie used to hate her little duck slippers because they were deceptively friendly-looking versions of, horror of horrors, the evil shoe. Now that Tillie associates wearing shoes with getting to play on the playground, she doesn't mind wearing shoes so much and she has discovered that they can come in friendly shapes. Did I tell you that Tillie can now identify a few new species of animals? Adding to dog, cat, duck, fish, and “moo" - she now can say "baa" and will grunt like a pig and trumpet like an elephant when faced with images of these creatures.


Also, she says "bobble" when she wants her bottle. To hear it in person is either incredibly cute or devastatingly pitiful, depending on whether or not I have a bottle of milk warmed up and on hand.

On a side note, why am I so proud of these lego/duplo sculptures that I made?

Cute video! It really captures the way little toddlers move in on you. Good talkin', too.
