Capturing the Unexpected...

Marking Their Territories

People often laugh when they hear me affectionately refer to my kids as mutts. Well...they are half-breds after all. LOL They yap nonstop. They love to eat meat off the bone. They like to sit in our laps. They love to go for walks and rides. They would rather be outside running around, chasing each other than being stuck inside. You get the idea.

Well, they added another item to the above list...marking their territories. While Round Eye was in the shower this morning, the mutts had an altercation over a wooden block. Next thing I know, the Mickster wrote the following on HIS bedroom door and the Pink Princess started to write her name on HER door. "No btey (body) in my room" and "L". While his spelling is quite impressive...and I'm sure the Pink Princess' would have been as well had I not stopped her after the first letter...I was not impressed with this marking...with a marker no less.

Hmmm...they spent some time with their noses to the wall with hands behind their backs...too bad we don't have kennels! LOL Oh my!

A Sister for the Pink Princess

A funny happened last night... It was around midnight and I was taking a hot bath when suddenly my door opened. In came the Pink Princess. She opened her eyes then closed it quicky. She walked to the toilet, used the potty, wiped, flushed all the while with her eyes closed. She walked out and said, "Have a good baf, momma."

Isn't she funny? Tell me her eyes were closed because of the bright light and because she was half asleep and not because she didn't want to see me naked??? LOL

Tonight while I was putting her to bed, she was playing with her fingers and counting them. Then she decided to name all the people in our family. Here's her recount of our family members...

"Mimi, she's my gwenma. Righ, Momma?"
"Yes, she is, Woogie."

"Daddy. His name is *****? Righ, Momma?"
"Yes, his name is *****, Woogie."

"Joe. He's my gwenpa. Righ, Momma? And Papa in Heaben too?"
"Yes, they are, Woogie."

"Bubby. He's my budder. Righ, Momma? And I haf a sisser too."
"You do, Woogie?"

"Yes, Momma. I get one sisser soon."
"When are you getting this sister?"
"Ness week, Momma. On Thursday."

Too funny! LOL

I forgot to take a picture today so I went back to our June 2007 archives and found these pictures of the Pink Princess. She strutted down the runway...well, those are tables in the conference room. LOL And the other picture is of her playing around at a play area. She was only 22 months old at the time.

The Pink Princess insisted that I help her make these small, little peas while playing with her playdough. Days later, we are still finding "peas" in secret places.
