Around here lately: May 2016 edition

Enjoy, folks!

Hey, these Cheerios have SAUCE on them! (i.e. Honey Nut Cheerios. She usually eats plain Cheerios, so this was her reaction when she accidentally got the good stuff.)

Here's Baby Jesus. Praise the Lord, the God of my Salvation. And He will bless me. (I can only conclude that this was a mashup of various things she heard on some of our Superbook videos. It was oh so funny to hear her say these things while cradling a turkey baster.)

I can't see you on the phone... (We have an old phone set- with a CORD- that she plays with. You can see that she is a child of the camera phone era.)


Posing with her behavior chart on the first day that she reached the top prize!

Laundry day

Baby Sister is sleeping soooo nicely!

What are his eyebrows saying, Nana? (Again, Superbook. This was in reference to Zechariah's facial expressions in the video about John the Baptist's birth. He couldn't use his voice, so, you know, he used his eyebrows.)

Erin: That's such a tall tower, Claire!
Claire: It's not tall yet, but it will be soon.


Attempting a pose with the flowers. Not succeeding.

So focused.

I'm de-where-ee-us! (i.e. hilarious)

Mommy, look! The sun-bright is on!

Will you open my good morning door? (her bedroom door. Brad opens it and says, "Good morning" everyday.)



Getting the hang of her tricycle.

Hey, Daddy, I was thinking about getting a saxophone. (out of the clear blue, y'all.)

Barbara: What was bad about this morning, Claire? (reviewing why the morning didn't go smoothly, in hopes of having a better afternoon)
Claire: Um...ME! (she was correct)

Siwwy Wiwwy, what are you doing?

While watching Tangled, Claire decided that this princess wand was Rapunzel (the streamers were her hair), and this side table was Rapunzel's tower. Great imagination and improvising.


Sister snuggles.

It's ok, Baby Sister! I'm coming! (on several occasions. In answer to Lily's cries.)

Vitamummies (what she calls her gummy vitamins)

This is the baby called Wiwwy. (explaining who Lily is)


Just hanging.

Spending time with our friend, Mrs. Katie. (yes, she's one of the many friends moving this summer. We will MISS her!)

Mamaw and Papaw loooooooove me! (said while prancing around with a bag of Goldfish sent to her from Brad's grandparents)

That's so shay-bee, Mommy. (she heard me describe something as "shady" and wanted to try her hand at that adjective)

It's the night of the middle, Mommy.


Can I hold Wiwwy?

More floor time.

Mommy, wherever you go, I will go. And your people will be my people. (Yet again...Superbook)

The cars are so PROUD! (in the final race scene in Cars)

I'm sure that's a lot of dirt! (while "helping" Brad fix some issues under our dishwasher)


Ready to "help" with the dishwasher.


Totally helping.

Boswell beach trip 2022: part 1

Just another friendly reminder that I'm still playing catch-up. Clearly, it is not currently July... We made another annual trip to Tops...
