The dishes are done!

I guess I can be a skeptic. I totally thought people were full of crap when talking about how their younger child was always entertained by watching their older child. But it works! When in a good mood, Estelle will watch and listen to Roxie as though she is the most entertaining thing. It gives Roxie an audience and I can do the dishes! Yay for doing the dishes with two hands and without a toddler standing on my feet. It doesn't take much to make me happy I guess...

Enough Said

I don't care how old you are, this is funny.

Sisters

They do look like sisters! They are about the same age in these pictures, both about 4 months old. It is strange to look at Roxie so little! Today it seems like forever ago that she was so small. I know it is all happening too fast but for some reason sometimes it seems like slow motion. If only I could pause it for awhile :)

They say the funniest things!

Kids say really funny things. A lot. Roxie is no exception. Some I will remember, others I am sure I will not. The priceless ones, I guess I should document. What a better place than here! My mom says I will regret not writing some of them down. So mom, this ones for you!

Roxie's recent phrases:

• "My eyes are dripping" said of course while crying
• "My knees are fallling out" said when her pant legs ride up too high while sitting down

Color Terrific!

Yes, the teapot boils fantastic water. And yes, the dutch oven will make many wonderful meals for my family. But most important, how freaking cute do they look in my kitchen! Do I feel a collection coming on? It's the little things in life, you know?
