Bedtime Conversation with a Wandering 2 Year Old

Elizabeth: I scared of the aldegators.

Mommy: Oh, honey, there's no alligators here. Alligators live far, far away, not here in PEI.

Clara: Ya, and there's no bears here either.

Mommy: No, isn't that great, no bears to worry about either.

Clara: And there's no monkeys here...there's not enough bananas.

Elizabeth is having a hard time staying in bed these days. I think she's finally realized that she's not confined in a crib anymore. John finally had to take her blanket and cow away from her, and now she's up there crying about it. I feel bad for Clara who shares a room with her. Elizabeth cries SOOOO loud...John says she's like a foghorn. Well, we're going to have to see if we can work out some sort of agreement with blankie, Boo, and staying in bed.

Here's some recent pictures...

Clara's first day of preschool.

I love how this picture captures the personalities of all three girls...princess Clara, laugh-out-loud Elizabeth, and laid back Ella.

A visit from Grandma and Grandpa.

Ella's first time in the high chair. She's loving her rice cereal.
