Questions about Brother?!?

When is Ry going to get big and not be a baby?

Why does he eat EVERYTHING?
When will he be big enough to wrestle with?
Can we change him to a sister?
...just curious!

What Happens When Dad is Asleep..

Monday night, Mom had a board meeting (whatever that is) and left after she put Ry to bed. That left Daddy in charge. So, he got me all ready for bed and tucked me in. When mom got home at 9, she checked on me and I was still awake. She noticed something was missing on my little mermaid costume (which I was sleeping in). Here is how it went from there...

Mom: Did you tear your costume?
Addie: Nooooo, I cut it.
Mom: With your scissors?
Addie: No, the kitchen ones (the ones that could put an eye out and debone a chicken). I was making a ball gown. Are you so proud of me?
Mom: Of course, it is beautiful! Wow, you cut a lot of holes! Did you cut anything else? Scissor use reminder talk...blah, blah, blah!
Addie: No
Mom: Where are the scissors?
Addie: They are in here somewhere?
Mom: Did you eat a snickers (wrapper by bed)?
Addie: No, butterfly Barbie did!
Mom: Tell the truth.
Addie: Yes. I was hungry for a little snack.
Mom: Where was Daddy?
Addie: He was sleeping in his bed!

Earth Day

In honor of Earth Day yesterday, I decided to turn the hose on high in the back yard and let it run. Mom did not notice this while we were in the back because the hose is around the corner of the house. She did notice it 2 hours later after she had put us to bed and heard a strange sound (like water running) in my room. When she asked me about it, I told her I did it...I was just cleaning up. Honesty is the best policy!

Barber Shop

It is NOT the Barbie Shop like I thought Dad said. It is a place for Dad's and boys to get haircuts, but not Ryan because he doesn't have hair.

Reinda and Papa's Farm

Mom and Dad had a work trip, so Ryan and I got to spend some time at the farm with Reina and Papa. Here are some highlights....

1. Learning to peep outside (btw...not okay when you are in a neighborhood or at the park with Mom)

2. Barbies playing in the hot tub (Papa now calls it the lukewarm Barbie pool)

3. Watering Larry the Lizzard (He is really a metal lizzard that lives on the deck, but likes to play in the water).

4. Other fun adventures like four-wheeling and walks to the creek.

Reina and Papa said they were realy tuckered out when Mom and Dad came to get us...wonder why?!
