Mia climbed up into the Princess chair so Addie pulled the Elmo chair over and sat down by her...they can be so sweet sometimes! (Mia is eating crayons by the way...)
Addie has a new favorite game. She LOVES to pretend that she is a tiger and it is the funniest thing ever! She crawls around the floor growling at everything. Her current favorite movie is "Tarzan" but instead of calling it "Tarzan" she calls it "Ah! ah! ah!" (aka her monkey sound). She gets REALLY into it too. At the beginning when the leopard is attacking, she very nearly cries and just says "oh no!" over and over and "it's scary!". THEN when the gorilla wins she cheers and starts jumping up and down with joy saying "yay!" and laughing. It is more amusing to watch her then the actual move itself.
Mia is becoming quite the little flirt. Anytime someone speaks to her, she bashfully turns her head to the side, bats her long dark eyelashes, peeks up at them and smiles. It's very sweet! But boy is this one going to be trouble.....she climbs on to EVERYTHING and has already started coloring on my couch and walls. I really thought she would be my easy child. She is a handful already and she has only been walking for a month!
Yesterday we went to watch Zach play in a softball tournament. I remembered to put sunscreen on the girls but forgot to put any on myself thus resulting in the first sunburn I have had since I was a kid. The girls got nice and tan though, don't you think?
Addie is way too brave for my nerves! At the ballpark, she didn't want to play with kids her age, she wanted to play with the "big kids". So she climbed up the scary 10+ feet tall metal slide and played on the "real" swings, not the bucket swings and of course, she had to get on the merry-go-round. She nearly fell off the slide, but luckily I was right behind her. She face-planted off the swings 3 different times and fell off the merry-go-round, while it was in motion, twice. Do you think that dampered her spirit? Of course not. She got right back up and did it again.
What will it be like when Mia is Addie's age? Holy cow! I'm going to have to be put on anti-anxiety meds.....
We are heading to the drive-in tonight to watch "Night at the Museum 2"--hopefully the girls behave and it is a fun experience instead of a head-ache. Wish us luck!

I just wanted to let you know that you made me laugh when I read about Addison watching Tarzan. That is so hilarious, you should try to get it on video!
Oh, and Kylie ALREADY insists on going on the big swings, she does fall down, but she gets right back on. She also insists on going down the big slides by herself too. I'm hoping that Eve isn't as daredevilish and headstrong because it's a bad combination. Good luck keeping track of two crazy girls, I can only imagine how hard that is!
