alli, alli, alli

This sweet child will be the end of me! It's no secret that the is independent and stubborn and can be difficult. It's mostly just at home, and to me. However, she can be the sweetest, funniest girl. Luckily, lately she has been the latter. Everyday she says the funny things, and I wonder where in the world she heard that from. For instance:

Alli: Mom, is that Mr. Clean? (addressing the cleaner on the counter)
Me: Yes
Alli: Mr. Clean comes to your house to make sure it's clean, huh?
Me: Sure

and:

Alli: Mom, Muckle Chuck (Macie) love Justin Bieber!
Now this could be because I want to start a website entitle "Baby Biebers." And it would consist of infants and toddlers whos hair is like the Biebs'. And Macie would be our poster child.

and her latest:

Macie was saying something over and over and Jeff and I couldn't figure out what she was saying.
Me: Alli, what's she saying?
Alli: I think it's Spanish.


And in regards the picture above, I believe this displays her funny personality. She got slippers for her birthday and she thought they were tap shoes. So this is her tap dancing. She was doing a weird little dance and I asked her what she was doing and she said tap dancing in her new shoes. And yes, she's in the elite group of 3 year olds that are not potty trained. She claims she's "too little." and when approached about the subject in social situations, she says she is potty trained. All her weirdness aside, it's hard not to love this little girl.

my funny valentines

Trying to get a good picture of these two together is dang near impossible. They get so weird together and make faces. But I'm glad they are my little loves!

When the camera came out, she ran to her couch, posed herself and said, "Hurry, take a picture of this."

Typical scene over here. One trying to mother, and the other not responding as she would have hoped.

And last, but certainly not least, this guy: we've been together a long time, and I consider my self the luckiest girl in the world. Words can't express how much I love him. And I don't think I will try on my blog. I'm grateful for each day that I have will him and my two chick-a-dees!

(they just lost the their last game, thus the face)
