Where does she find those markers??

So when I need a marker, I can't find one anywhere, But B seems to find them everywhere!! So while I was writing the last Blog--this is what B was up too......ugh

No Running....

The #1 rule of the pool right??  So I always try to enfore the same rules with my kids as the lifeguards do...so I always tell them not to run.  Well today as I told A & B not to run they took off walking fast, but the way they were "fast" walking you could tell it was killing them not to run and they were concentrating so hard not to run!!!
We took Domma to the pool with us and everyone was tuckered out by the time we got home--so a good nights sleep for everyone (including Domma!!!)

sweet swimming baby (didnt get any pics in the water--i need a waterproof camera)

Friend or enemy????

How do you use your flip flops??

Well I just wear them on my feet, But when I asked Aydan what he was doing with B's flip flop and my wooden spoon, he replied "it is a sword and sword holder" (duh)

Pina Coladas anyone??

Miss Luv Bug

She had her 4 month check up today..She has grown 2 inches and gained 2 lbs since her 2 month check, weighing in at 12 1/2lbs.  She got her shots which was very tramatic, to which B yells all the way out to the counter "give her boob mom" LOL
She also had some cereal tonight (we tried a week ago but it was a no go) this time was better!!

Oh Brooklynisms

So my friend from North Dakota has been staying with us this week.. Well Sara is B's vestfriend ever as she says..she also has an issue with who is who.  She calls Saras son "her broder" and her husband "her dad"
So this morning B wakes us and goes "wheres that girl, my vestfriend?"
M: you mean Sara? she is in bed
B: in my bed
M: yes
B: Is she is bed with her dad?
M: (OMG I am now laughing histarically now)

What did you eat for dinner??

Brooklyn ate Texas Roadhouse butter.....

Pedis are good

Today we went and got a pedicure (it was well overdue) and B got her toes and fingers painted (she is not quite big enough to reach the kiddy pedi chair)
