I love my girls

I just wanted to write these few little happenings down before I forget about them.

I had gotten Bailey out of the bath and she was all dressed for bed, and then I moved on to getting Abby dressed. As soon as I turned away from her, Bailey ran for the tub (which still had some water in it), and jumped in, clothes on and all! I pulled her out and she was crying because she was cold and confused as to why she was wet. The little stinker. We just had to laugh! She thought she was teasing me, but in the end, she wasn't too happy!

Abby has these pink water shoes that she still loves to wear, but they have gotten kind of stinky from her wearing them without socks, and today she brought them over to me and said "Mom, these are poopy". I tried to explain to her that it was the smell from her feet, not that they were literally poopy. So I told her I would wash them, and then she ran over to Gavin and said, "Daddy, look, these are poopy", and I said, "Abby, I don't think Daddy wants to smell your shoes". She makes me laugh! Abby is getting very smart in so many ways, and it is nice that she is finally understanding why I say no to certain things, not just because I'm a mean mom.

The last story was so funny. Usually, my girls take a little while to wind down in their room before they fall asleep, so I have to go and check on them several times. Usually Abby is pretty wild, throwing toys or climbing in Bailey's crib, and so when I heard a loud noise, I ran in ready to pull Abby out of the crib. I came in, and Bailey was jabbering really loud and banging a toy on her crib and Abby was laying on her bed trying to fall asleep. Abby said "Mommy, Bailey is loud", and I just started laughing because talk about role reversal! Abby is kind of growing out of it, and Bailey is getting into it now! So I went to calm Bailey down, and she just starts laughing and rolling around her crib, the little naughty thing!

I love my girls and I love these sweet and funny moments, it makes it all worth it!
