So Heavy

It's funny how, I'm the one who is always carrying everything...the snacks, the toys, the blankets, the bags, even the kids, more often than not.  But it never fails, Olivia always declares that things are heavy...even when she's not the one carrying them.  :)  I picked her up the other day and was walking around with her, and quite a few other things in my arms.  She just kept sighing and saying "Ooohhh!  So heavy!"  So, either she is the most compassionate soul on the face of the planet, and is truly feeling my burdens, OR she is simply rubbing it in.  :)

This little girl makes me laugh...and have a sore back, but that is besides the point.  Good thing she is such a little pipsqueak!  I don't know what I would do if she actually was heavy!

Seriously?

Ethan had a friend over today and for the last few minutes I told them they could play the wii.  They thought I was being the coolest mom ever...but really, I just needed them quiet so I could put Olivia down for her nap!  :) 

This is the conversation that I overheard as I headed up the stairs with Olivia...

Friend - Ethan, do you SERIOUSLY have Maters Tall Tales?!?!?!
Ethan - Yep, I have it.
Friend - But do you SERIOUSLY have it???
Ethan (slightly exasperated) - I ACTUALLY have it!  And, I don't even know what seriously means!
Friend - Oh, seriously means you really, really, really have it.
Ethan - Yep, really got it.

I love these two best buddies!

Waiting

What happens when you take your two kiddos along with you to a "quick" doctors appointment???  And then what happens when that doctor's appointment requires a 2 1/2 hour wait to spend 4 minutes with said doctor???

LOTS of fun/meltdowns in the waiting room.  Followed by LOTS of noise and fun back in the actual room.  Then there was the complete silence as they watched Mommy sit in the lab give away vial after vial after vial of blood with my favorite chatty nurse!  Then back the the usual mayhem while we waited some more!!!  These two were hilarious!

 Yes, the lights may or may not have been flickering on and off and on and off and on and off...you get the picture!
 Dance party to the random music in their cute little heads!
 Climbing all over the table...wishing it were more like a slide!

 Jumping contests.
Tricks and Turns and Great Landings


Next time, I'll be getting a babysitter!  :)
