I haven't kept up the girls' sayings and doings very well. I always forget to document it on here, then when I think about it I have forgotten exactly what the girls' have said. And I like to do it as soon as it happens that way I can record it almost exactly as they said/did it.
Well today there are three things I wanted to record:
Ryan is gone tonight with scouts, so I gave the girls a bath, read for 20 minutes, had a bedtime snack, did homework with Madisen, brushed their teeth, read scriptures, said out prayers and put them to bed. About ten minutes later as I was busy cleaning the kitchen and doing the last of the dishes, Madisen comes around the corner of the kitchen and startles me.
Me: Are you ok, Madi? Are you scared?
Madisen: No, I'm OK. I just wanted to make sure you weren't lonely.
Me: I come down on my knees and embrace her and say, "Oh, thank you Madi but I am fine. I am just cleaning the kitchen up."
Madisen: Ok. I just thought you might be lonely.
Me: No, I am ok. Did you need anything?
Madisen: A hug.
Me: Me too. <<>>

Before dinner tonight I let the girls paint for a while, while I was preparing dinner. I over heard this:
Avery: Madi, do you like my picture?
Madisen: Yeah! That is really great Avery!
Avery beaming: Thank you Madi! I like it too and all the colors.
Madisen: Yeah, it has a lot of beautiful colors.
Avery beaming even more: Thanks Madi!
Madi: Your welcome.
(OK, so seriously this conversation they had cracked me up! It was like they were so formal and so polite to each other, that I thought..."who's kid are you!?" " Who taught you that?" LOL!)

Emily and Avery were playing outside this morning in the back yard. I was busy cleaning up and doing some laundry when I heard the back door fly open and Avery running in the house chanting...I gotta go, I gotta go, I gotta go!
Wondering what she was doing I headed down the hall to see her dart into the bathroom. I stop and listen to her talk to herself from the hallway:
Avery: Oh man. I didn't make it in time. (pause) Oh...wait. There's just a lil' bit of pee-pee. And that's OK, to have a lil' bit.
It was pretty funny. I guess it's one of those times where you had to be THERE. haha.
