1st grade here we come

Addie and I got haircuts for a little girl time. She has yet to learn to appreciate how nice it is to have someone else do your hair as she fought me tooth and nail the whole way! Girl doesn't realize what great hair she has... School here we come!



Addie's Awesome house

Addie and I made the best Trio house ever. Complete with garage, ceiling fan, TVs, zip line, private plane, privacy canyon, sugar slide and our own giant pet crab.

Steep Girl-ism

You know how your kids say the funnies things and you think to yourself you should write then down before you forget? Here are some of them...

Hanitizer = hand sanitizer (this one actually makes sense to me)
Ham-hock = hammock
Lemon-lade = lemonade
Mustachios = pistachios

Kaitlynn's favorite words right now are "actually...." "The thing is..." And "literally..." Hopefully her teacher finds her as entertaining as we do. Or it will be a long school year!

Toughest 5 year old

Kaitlynn and I went to her well check this morning to get her ready for kindergarten. She had to get 3 shots and too them like a champ. Barely cried. Nurse was shocked. Kaitlynn was tough all because she got to get some bubble tape from the gas station.

What happens if they explode?

Today we made lava lamps. Took a lot of oil but was fun. Kaitlynn thought they would explode. I think ever since the exploding chalk experiment she now thinks everything should explode.

Payment in kisses

Tonight I tried to bribe the kids with kisses. I told them if they emptied the dishwasher I would pay them in kisses. Addie wanted 30. Kaitlynn wanted 100. She drives a hard bargain.
