Happy Three Months, Brielle!

Didn't I JUST post pictures from her two month pictures?? Where is the time going?? Brielle is growing up so fast it's just plain hurting my feelings. She's all about watching everything Kendall does and making notes about the day she can do it herself. She's going to be a busy body for sure. Here's her latest pics from our glamour shot today.

Schooling

I'm sorry, Brielle, but reality is you have hours of schooling in front of you before preschool ever starts.  Your first teacher is Miss Kendall.  You should know everything there is to know to graduate kindergarten by the time you're three.

You Might Be A City Slicker If...

...your conversation with your four-year-old who just went on a field trip to the fire station and is telling about it goes like this:

Kendall:  The fireman told us about smoke detectors and calling 9-1-1.

Mommy:  Good!  That's important to know. (Note to self:  teach child about dialing 911 and not being scared of firemen.)

Kendall: And guess what??  The fireman told us that he likes to go fishing and hunting.

Mommy:   Ok. (So does 90% of adult males in our region.  Daddy is in the 10%)

Kendall:  Mommy, I like to hunt, too.  Easter is my favorite holiday just like the fireman.  Do you think the fireman will be there at Easter when we have our hunt??

Kendall Conversations vol. 11

Kendall:  Mama (knowing how there is a no more pet rule in our house, especially any of the rodent variety) can you move somewhere else so I can get a guinea pig?

------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Kendall:  When I grow up I'm not going to be a mommy (her future status changes daily).  I'm going to be a doctor who is a grandma.

------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

And proving my child is smarter than me at times...

Kendall:  Mom, what's your favorite shape?

Mommy:  My favorite shape??  I've never thought about that before.  Hmmm...I dunno...a circle??

Kendall:  My favorite shape is a diamond.  I like diamonds.

Mommy:  That's a good favorite shape!  Make sure to tell your husband that one day.
