If you were a fly on the wall at our house, or more realistically a Japanese beetle since they seem to LOVE Wisconsin, these are some of the things you would be observing lately.
Scene 1
Alyssa: (while petting Alex's hair in a trance-like state) I love his hair, it is so soft.
Alex: (snaps his head back in astonishment) Her doesn't hate me anymore!
Scene 2- Inauguration Day
Mom: (while handing Alyssa her clothes) Get dressed
Alyssa: I think I want to wear lavender for the inauguration celebration
Mom: You told me a million times that you needed to wear red, white and blue today
Alyssa: I know but I decided to wear lavender because red white and blue make lavender and it is more girly.
Scene 3- Family Home Evening last Monday
Dad: Do you guys know what this is? (holding up his flip chart from his mission which resembles Alyssa's diary)
Alex: I know! It's a diarrhea.
a few moments later in the lesson after Alex had struggled really hard to say Joseph Smith correctly (Josep Smip)
Dad: How can you know if Joseph Smith saw Heavenly Father and Jesus?
Alyssa: The Holy Ghost
Alex: I'll call the Ghostbusters
Scene 4
Alyssa: Say cheese, biscuit! (I look up to see Alyssa holding up a piece of paper in front of her and her robotic dog)
Mom: Are you pretending to take a picture?
Alyssa: No, this is my cell phone. (holds up very realistically designed paper cell phone)
Mom: Now what are you doing? (noticing that the cell phone is now opened and Alyssa is typing away at a little keypad)
Alyssa: Just texting this picture to Quinn.
Scene 5- When the alarm clock went off
Julie: Did you get up with Chloe last night?
Seth: No, did you?
I don't know what we said next but I think the ceiling opened to release balloons and streamers for the celebration....at 13 months she finally sleeps through the night!!!! YAY!!!

Yay for sleeping through the night. Cute post!
Tell Alex that I'm calling the ghost busters too!
Every single one of those made me laugh... what great kids!
Congrats on the sleeping through the night. I will never forget when that started happening. Woo hooo.
Scarlett slept for 9 hours last night and I thought she was dead when I woke up. I was ready to explode though, my mommy pillows had turned into rocks.
So here's my offer, I'll sleep train your baby if you will potty train Boston. Deal?
the diaper issue is really my fear. He has been wearing a size 6 for the last 4 months. There is nothing bigger. I don't want to buy depends for him. I'm ready to hire a potty trainer. I haven't even really tried, I'm just scared and don't know where to start
That was awesome!!! I love the cell phone story. Just you wait!!!! I love your stories you are hiarious!!!
