She's still learning

Madison found the sunscreen and decided to help herself. It was bedtime, so it was pointless. 

Today she used the expensive face cream to lotion her entire body and she got into John's cologne and sprayed enough that you can smell her from across the apartment!

While writing this Madison got a Jocelyn bottle and filled it 7/8th full with formula powder. When John told her to stop she took off running to add water to it.

The other day Madison was "crying" and John asked her why she was crying. She immediately stopped looked at him and said: "that was my fake cry." She just fake cries so she can have what she wants she informed us. She's only two. Can you imagine what twelve is going to be like?

Friday night John and Alexis had the stomach flu. We each had about two and half hours of sleep. It was a a very long night for all of us needless to say. Alexis told me during one of her bouts of throwing up and she was a very brave little girl because she wasn't even crying! I concurred. Luckily we knew it would only be a 12 hour flu since Madison had it on Thursday. Madison however didn't wake us up after she'd lost her cookies multiple times in her bed, she just went back to sleep and told me in the morning. Crazy girl. She had it caked in her hair, all over her shirt, sheets, and comforter. BLAH.

Jocelyn likes to do what the big kids do. I found her in the kitchen the other day drawing her very own picture. She was so happy to be doing her own thing. She's learned how to stand up without holding onto anything, which means walking is right around the corner. AHH!

She has a vice grip like most little kids do, but it is usually my hair that is in her little fists. I'm ready to chop it all off so that I don't have to deal with it any more but John really likes my long hair. 

Drew has a new bike and he's terrified of riding it. We bought him a bike with training wheels so he'd give Madison the three wheeler. He's afraid of going too fast because he might fall. Too fast includes but is not limited to a normal persons walking speed, yes, you read that right. He prefers to walk his bike.

Alexis gave a talk in primary today. She was nervous, but she did really well. She read the talk all by herself and didn't want either of us to come up and help her. We were very proud.
