My daughter is weird. I don't know where she gets it from...but she's weird.
She is a nose biter.
Lily still doesn't have teeth...and when she gets them, this strange obsession of hers will be nipped in the bud. But while she's still gummy, we indulge her desires.
If you get your face close to hers, she reaches out, grabs your ears and pulls you in. It looks like she's been watching too many soap operas and is going to plant a big dramatic French kiss on you. But instead she guides your nose into her mouth and proceeds to try and take the cartilage tip off. It can HURT, I tell you. And she LOVES to do it.
Weirdo. Even weirder is Andrew telling people that she is a nose biter. You should see the looks I get. Oh, and Andrew was asking how many fingers Lily was in age. I explained that she hasn't reached a whole finger yet, so she's like half a finger. Now he introduces her like this, "This is my sister Lillian. She's half a finger."
Strangers look at us like we're a freak show. And with a nose biter...perhaps we are quickly becoming that.

I can't imagine where either of your kids got their weirdness. I mean, Effie the Hairbrush Ninja is totally normal, right? Didn't you also tell me that YOU had an imaginary friend, too?!?!
Hmmmmm, weirdness. You are the proverbial tree from which both your little nuts have fallen. (This could almost be dialogue in a porn movie, eh?)
I like the half a finger! Ryan keeps asking how old everyone is and he tells people that: he is 3 (he's 2 but thinks big), Rachel is baby, Mommy is 25 (I lied what can I say??), and Daddy is OLD (wonder where he got that from???)
You think you;re weird!
Well you had to expect Lily to come up with some personality quirkiness, just to keep up with her brother!
