Seven random things about the O kids

The delightful Angie from Between the Lines tagged me with the 7 things meme, which is awesome because I had several things about the kids in my head that I want to record for posterity, but none warrant a whole post. Thanks, Angie!

1. Thea is a leftie. We've known this since she was about a year and a half old.

2. Liam's white-blond hair is starting to darken a little. My sister and I were both tow-headed when we were little, so he takes after me.

3. Thea isn't crazy about sweets and can eat just half a cookie then give the other half to Liam, but she loves potato chips. Her favorite food right now is Chipotle soft tacos (kid-sized burritos) with black beans and rice, and lettuce on the side.

4. Liam loves sweets and would eat candy for breakfast if we let him. His favorite drink is chocolate milk.

5. When Thea is watching something on TV that she really likes, she makes the grown-ups leave the room. It's a blessing, really.

6. Liam loves Dora to the point of obsession, but he especially loves the episodes that also include her cousins Diego and Alicia, too. Many mornings the first thing he'll say is "Watch Dora Diego?"

7. Thea doesn't like to wear clothes and insists on sleeping in only her underwear, even when the house is freezing. Liam doesn't like to wear pants, but loves hats.

I think my daughter and Liam are made for each other. Chocolate milk, Dora/Diego fest for their first date!

My daughter sounds a lot like yours. Clothes, no thanks. Sweets, no thanks.

We've hit on the sisterly bond of nudity with our girls. Gab sleeps the exact same way, just a diaper and will be icy to the touch. But, you silently slip a blanket on her and she wakes up, kicking and flailing her way back to naked time.

Gab's a big hat wearer, too. The more outlandish, the better. I love Liam's sombrero. :-)

I wish I had Thea's eating habits.

I'm with Thea when it comes to sleep attire. Or the rest of my attire too, come to that. Good girl.
