With Shep and Rauly in school each day, Lillie Anna has had to find new ways to spend her day. We've been singing ABC's and reading together, running errands and talking...but more than anything, she wants to play with her best friend, Chase. :-)

They watch TV together...

And play together...(or rather, LA attempts to play with Chase - poor dog, lol!).

And lounge together... :-)



We found out yesterday that Shepherd has a Staph infection in his left elbow. He had to go to the doctor to have his infection area drained and Lillie Anna was there with him. She was devestated for him. I've never seen her cry like she did when she saw him in pain. She wanted to sit in his lap on the way home (of course I didn't let her), and didn't want to leave his side all day yesterday. And to show support, she has wanted a bandaid on her elbow to match the one her bubba has...Shep's is about 4x larger, but this one suffices. ;-) This morning, I had to go to Shep's school to speak with the nurses and his teacher. When we got to his classroom - she ran in and tried to crawl in to his lap. And since we got home, she has been randomly bursting in to tears and crying for Shep...each time, she grabs her elbow and says "boo-boo". Sweet baby girl...she adores her big bubba!
