Girls are the BEST!

I have the funnest girls. They make me laugh every day. Recently, Marian has been making "books" and it is a lot fun to see. She is so creative and comes up with the most interesting things. I am almost sad that she is giving all her books away to her friends. Here is her Thanksgiving book. Be warned, she is still a very phonetic speller!

5 little turkeys, trying not to be eaten.

1 got eaten while they were playing.

Another was eaten while they were trying to help.

Then Callie took a turkey.

Then she took another turkey to eat.

The little turkey was all alone then. He thought, "if I don't have friends, I'm going to be eaten."

And he did.

Delaney got a haircut on Sunday. She actually asked for it and I was thrilled to oblige. She twists her hair around her finger as she sucks her thumb and it has been known to cause knots and tangles, and she has gotten her finger stuck in her hair. So I had been thinking for a while now that she needed a trim. Since she wanted "Short hair", I did cut it a little shorter than I would have otherwise.

Before

After

I couldn't get a good shot of it, but she really looks cute with the shorter hair. She definitely looks older.

And Rylee, ahhhh, Rylee...... She is something else!
She was laying on the floor with a pencil, trying to write on the magazine. It is the toy edition, so the kids have all been going through it, circling their wish lists.

Rylee was so cute on Sunday in her lovely dress. I sat her on the stair and she thought that was the best thing ever! A little seat, just for her! She was thrilled to discover this.

Such a funny girl!

And, last, is this shot. Rylee thought she was a big girl. She grabbed the bike helmet and tried to put it on. Then she tried to climb in the tricycle. I was laughing so hard! She really thinks she is a big kid!
