My Crazy Girls

Lizzy is a crazy kid. She is so full of mischief. She got ahold of scissors, seeing as last time she got scissors she cut her hair, I try really hard to make sure she can't get stuff like that, but nevertheless she got them, and what did she cut up? She got on my bed and cut up my nice expensive sheets and comforter. Lovely.

I had to call poison control because Lizzy ate a whole flower. She eats stuff like that all the time. Since she was going to eat plants no matter what I did apparently, I told her she could eat the plants in my herb garden, and sure enough she eats basil leaves all the time. She loves them.

I called poison control again because she got ahold of baby ibuprofen and got the child proof cap off, (she has been doing that since she was 8 months) and tried to pour it down Nellie's throat, good thing most of it ended up on the carpet, but since they keep record of the calls to poison control, I am worried they are going to report me to child services.

Right about now people reading this must think I am a neglectful parent that leaves her child to get into trouble. Really I don't, only to go to the bathroom or do the laundry or things like that, it's just that Lizzy attracts trouble and takes advantage of any time alone.

I was telling Lizzy it was time to put her jammies on and she said "Now's not a good time, sorry." She thinks she is an adult I swear.

Lizzy isn't the only one who thinks she is an adult. Nellie refuses to eat baby food and has for about a month and a half. She wants what we eat. And she wants big pieces like we eat. She can eat big chunks of fruit, whole strawberries, even her own sandwiches. Keep in mind she still doesn't have any teeth! Does she choke? Heck no, she can handle it, she is a grownup. She has only been crawling for a month, but she has already decided that is too boring, and she is trying to walk. She can stand on her own. the other night she just stood in the middle of the room while she drank her bottle. She has even taken a few steps. These girls are crazy! what happened to the mellow girl that is just like her dad that I was supposed to get. Why did I get girls who are full of attitude and sass. Maybe my boys will be just like their dad. Let's hope because I don't know how many more kids like this I can have without losing my mind!

All kidding aside I love them to pieces and wouldn't trade them for anything in the world. They are the cutest sweetest kids and I am the luckiest mommy in the world to have them.
