"I don't want to eat them"

Tonight at dinner Devynn decided she didn't want to eat her veggies. Most kids will leave them on their plate. Or maybe try to feed them to the dog. Or secretly wrap them in their napkin to throw away.

But not Devynn.

So what did she do with them while Ryan and I were distracted by a surprise visitor?


She placed them on the floor and, one by one, smooshed them with her shoe.


Of course, it was kinda funny to turn around and witness this, so the other kids were cracking up, which made it impossible for me NOT to laugh along too. Kind of hard to give her a stern "talking-to" when you are surrounded by giggles, and the sweetest little face looking at you. :)

Devynn's Question of the Day

"Mom, do snails get bruises?"

:)

Hooray!

Devynn stayed dry all night!!! Keeping my fingers crossed that this is the beginning of a new trend! :)

My other 3 monkeys all stayed dry through the night before I even thought about potty training them. But not Little Miss Devynn. She has continued to wake up every night wet. I finally took her out of diapers a while back, thinking that maybe her wetting on herself would help her learn and stop it. I have been changing sheets and blankets and pajamas (sometimes more than once a night) for weeks now. I have been debating putting her back in diapers at night, but haven't felt like that would be the best thing for her.

So imagine my surprise when she came in my room this morning COMPLETELY DRY!!! YAY!! I am so excited. And I'm sure my washer and dryer are happy too...they've been feeling a little overworked lately (they are already overworked because of all my monkeys...they don't need the extra loads of blankets everyday!)

So keep your fingers crossed with me that this is the start of something new! :)

What a little booger!!

Me: "Devynn, I love you thisssss much," as I stretch my arms as wide as they'll go.

Devynn: "I love you thissssss much," as she puts her hands about an inch apart.



Way to make me feel so loved, my sweet little one!!!

Can you read this without smiling?....

Devynn: "If the polly pollys go poop and pee in our hands, that would be esgusting!"



:)

A wedding already???!!!....

For those of you who have ever been around my house, you know how obsessed Devynn is with Yo Gabba Gabba. So the following should come as no surprise...


Devynn is getting married...

to Muno!


Yep, that's right, apparently Devynn is so in love with the tall, bumpy, red one-eyed guy that she plans on marrying him.

She also plans on having "5 Muno babies."

I'm REALLY hoping that they get their mommy's looks. :)

That's RyRy!

Oh how my Rylee Belle makes me laugh! This was the conversation we had this afternoon:



Me: Rylee, how come you're so beautiful?

Rylee: I don't know.

Me: Maybe it's because you look like me , and I am so beautiful.

Rylee: *silence*

Me: Don't you think I'm beautiful?

Rylee: *silence*

Me: What?! You don't think I'm beautiful?!

Rylee: *silence*

Me: You're still little, so that means you're suppose to think your mommy is the most beautiful girl in the world.

Rylee: No, I am the most beautiful girl in the world!!
