Alexis's Utah Friendly Joke

Alexis: Knock, Knock
Who's There?
Alexis: Missonaries
Missionaries Who?
Alexis: Shhhh they are right at the door.

Everyone seems to get a kick out of it...and it is way cuter when Lex says it

Family Update

Life is crazy! I have been seriously slacking on my blog :(. Since May Addison has started talking (she says four words now Mama, Dada, Papa, & Baba). She has also been pulling herself up on the furniture and crusing along it. Lexi is turning 5 next month and is funny as ever. More to come on Lexi's funny comments. Kaylee is nearly potty trained and is speaking in full sentences. More to come on their funny comments!

Dancing in the Fog...

Today for lunch I made some tater tots and there were a few little tater pieces that were really tiny so when I pulled them out of the oven they were smoking and burnt...So the little burnt pieces made our kitchen all smokey. It really amazes me how much smoke our little kitchen can contain, but as I am fanning the smoke detectors to stop them from beeping Lexi runs up to the kitchen and says:
"Oh thank you mom! I love dancing in the fog!"

Funny little girl

Today the girls and I were watching Miss Spider's Sunny Patch and there was a new little bug character on there called little sis. In the middle of the show little sis gets lost so all of the little buglets start calling out "little sis, little sis where are you?" at which point Kaylee starts saying "What" after each time they say little sis, lol. More often than not I call Kaylee little sis and not Kaylee, I am pretty sure she was thinking that someone was looking for her!

Negotiations

Apparently Alexis has taken a page out of Tim's negotiation book and is really going to be a great negotioator some day. This is the conversation we had last night.
A: "Mom since I was so good today how many stickers can I have?"
(this was really strong, assuming that she could have a sticker and also not asking for a set amount...let the negotiation begin)
M: "Well Lex I will let you have 2."
A: "How about three?"
M: "No Honey I said 2 only"
A: "Ok how about four then:
Totally her father's child!
M: "Babe nice try but you are going in the wrong direction"
She did settle and was satisfied with 2 but I have a feeling in a few years I may be in some trouble!

New Family Addition

On March 26th, 2010 Our family became complete (for now at least) with the addition of Addison Mackenzie Blais. She was 6 lbs 9 oz and 20 inches long.
