Grumpy Badger

It's no secret that our neice Reese (love how that rhymes, don't you?) is pretty much smitten with Lily. It's cute.... okay freaking adorable to hear her say, when prompted, "It's Ye-ye!" There's loads of kisses on the head, hugs and smiles. But it has come to my attention that Lily... or ye-ye.... adores Reese just as much, although she shows her love slightly different at the moment for lack of speech - she mimics. Sound familiar? Yes, aka my entire childhood with Molly... and occasionally adulthood too. :) Now Reese has been known for her amazing talent in producing animal faces (thanks to her parents and their love to laugh and entertain) for pretty much.. ever. She does the elephant, the rabbit, and the fish - very talented at that one - but I think maybe the funniest is the "Grumpy Badger" face. She's quite good at it - my favorite part being the hands on the hips. But I think Lily has been taking notes and this is why...

Here's Reese's grumpy badger face:

And here's Lily's:

It's a work in progress really, but I feel she's on her way. ;)
