Alexis in the play room hears someone coming through the house and says.
"I smell somebody walking". -Alexis age 2.5
Alexis took a shower with baby sunglasses strapped to her face like swimming goggles to,
"Keept the water out of mys eyes." -Alexis age 2.5
Riding down the street in the big car, Eva randomly just chuckles and says,
"When things are funny funny, you just have to laugh...ha, ha." -Eva age 4
After bath time, Eva, Alexis, and I play "spa" (I talk like a funny customer service person and get them ready for bed). It is funny and helps the time go smoothly. When I forget to talk in character they always say,
"Talk that funny way that you do." -Eva age 4 and Alexis age 2.5
Alexis is being potty trained, but doesn't quite get how to make the potty come out sometimes. One time when she was on the potty I said, "Alexis, are you going poopy?" She replied very strongly, "I am trying, but it's not showing up!" -Alexis age 2.5 A few days later when she was with mommy and went poopy on the potty she said with glee, "It finally showed up!" -Alexis age 2.5
On a rainy day, the girls and I spent 2.5 hours eating and playing at the local McDonalds. Eva and Alexis ran around and slid down all over the play place while I slowly helped Charlotte make her way around the gigantic contraption. I discovered that there was a loop of tubes near the top that were mostly flat but with small declines in places and I let Charlotte (age 12 months) go on a crawling adventure by herself. She thought this was the greatest thing ever and crawled around in the tubes for a good half hour. When Eva and Alexis came to say hi to us, I told them all that Charlotte had done on her own. To that Eva replied, "I love Charlotte cause she did all those tricks." -Eva age 4
There are many more fun moments that I can remember off hand, but in the coming days, I will try to remember to write more down to share.
Here's a picture of Charlotte excited about her McDonalds tube crawling adventure
