I didn't see but I am sure she was batting her eyes and giving him that charming smile

She was suppose to visit grandma and grandpa but she couldn't because she was sick. She persistently asked me, and I had to keep telling her no. She told me if she was a grown up and had a little girl she would let her go to grandma's house with her medicine!

conversations with dolly

Me: tomorrow we are going to have a girls day and we are going to run around with grandma

Dolly: um I don't think that's a good idea cause grandma is sort of ... you know fat
and she can't run around so good

stick glue vs. bottle glue

Nanny can I please have a bottle of elmer's glue, this glue stick really doesn't work.

Fast forward to many weeks. It's homework time and I reach in the back pack to get the pencil box only to find it covered in goo........ What is this? I open the box and it is also covered in goo..........
Mack! You didn't close the lid on the glue bottle.

Were going back to the glue stick right after I wash the markers and crayons and erasers and scissors.

Conversations with Madison

Yeah!! Now it's my turn to read the dairrhea of a whimpy kid book !!

Now that was a priceless moment

Dolly's wedding plans

Nanny when I grow up I am going to marry with Lucas. Then I am going to fall in love with him. I am going to wear a so, so, SO, beautiful long dress then I am going to sing to Lucas and Madi will faint!!

She is already a hopeless romantic at the age of 4. Thank you Cinderella, Snow White and princess Aeriel.............................

conversations with Mack

Mack was playing with some of Dolly's "little" toys, which she has many of. Jeremy asked Mack is that a mighty bean? Mack says yes it's a mighty bean....... Then he says no..IT'S A MIGHTY BEAN!!!  Waving his arm high in the air like it was some grand toy that needed praise. Poppy asked is it an alien mighty bean? Mack says yes. Jeremy says Mack...... what planet are YOU from? and without a missing a beat Mack says Uranus...........

conversation with Jeremy n Jinny

It was the end of the evening on Dolly's birthday. It was a very crazy and NOISY day. Half the family left and half was still there. Jeremy and Jinny, Mack and Dolly and I were sitting in the front room. Mack and Dolly were being their usual crazy and strange selves. Sometimes you just have to shake your head and wonder why they are the way they are? Seriously, they are not all together there.
Jeremy says: You know mom, Dolly has lived with you all of her life and Mack has lived with you at least half of his life....maybe your the common denominator here.
I just looked at him with my mouth open and was at a lost for words.
Then Jinny pipes up and says: And you know Timmy isn't much better and he has lived with you most of his life too. (hes 29 going on 18)
I then began wacking her with a stuffed teddy bear.
Then I said unfortunately you could be right.
Imagine the uproar of laughter that broke out at that point :)
