What they're thinking...

Addison: Okay Emme, look nice and docile for a minute.

Emme: Dude, they know me better than THAT!

Addison: No, seriously. This is the plan... we'll hug now and Mom will think we're the greatest. Then, I'll pretend to steal your crayon.

Emme: I like where this is going... but if you hit me hard, you're getting it. They don't call me slugger at school for nothin!

Addison: yeah, yeah... keep up with me here. So, I'll hit you, steal your crayon and you'll scream bloody murder.

Emme: Got it.

Addison: Then, Mom will send me to time out and comfort you. While she's comforting you, I'm gonna get that plate of Brownies...

Emme: Yeah, why the lady put the brownies near TO is beyond me!

Addison: So I'll get a brownie and you'll get hugs. Sound good?

Emme: uh-uh sister! There's a part B to this plan. I'll get hugs and then Mom will let you out of TO. When she does, you need to take the crayon that you stole and start drawing on the wall. That way, when Mom is focused on you, I'll get some brownies for myself. Sound good?

Addison: Yep! (thinks a second) HEY!!! Wait a second, that means I get time out twice and you get hugs and brownies.

Emme: Yeah, but the parental units are complete suckers... it won't last long and we'll still get more brownies.



*** completley fabricated... but I don't put it past them one bit!!!

I just know it!!! Emerson was triple-dog-dared by some older 18 month old punk who told her that "everyone was doing it" and she'd be cool if she did it also. That must be why she decided to use the jungle gym at school and do a no-hands-flying-trapeze-triple-gainor that landed her face first into the cedar chunks. This girl gives me fits!!! The fact that she never cried and the preschool teacher didn't see it happen was just icing on the cake and classic Emme... you can't turn away from her for a millisecond! And just for the sake of documentation, this picture was taken a good three hours after it happened. You should have seen her poor face when I picked her up at 4:00!

Pappy = Pee-Paw

Addison likes... no, LOVES to look at pictures these days. I guess for my generation it was tons of pictures in albums that were always so much fun. For her generation (I think they're still being called the millennials, but I'm not sure if she's too young to fit into that group), she points at my computer whenever she realizes it's around and asks to see pictures. Her favorite is looking at pictures of other babies. I like to show her pictures from another blog of a family in our area that has just had quintuplets ! She thinks they are the cutest and could look at the pictures forever! Yesterday, Addison snuggled up into my lap and asked to look at babies. I decided to pull up pictures of her from when she was a baby and ask her who all of the people were with her in the pictures. She knew most all of them, mostly because we talk about our family in different pictures quite a bit. Unfortunately, she just refused to believe that the man in a few of the pictures ...
