"No No No"

If Amy could understand that "no" means not to do something I might be the happiest mother ever. Instead, she thinks that "no no no" is just something to say while doing something wrong. For instance, rather than not scribbling on the wood floor with marker, she scribbles on the floor with the marker and says "no no no" while waiting for me to notice (that's when I remove the marker from her hand). Or, rather than not throwing her food off of her high chair onto the ground she dangles the food from her high chair and looks at me mischievously, saying "no no no" and throws her food anyway. Or, rather than not shaking her crib she shakes her crib all the while saying "no no". Someday we'll get it . . . I hope. In the meantime I just have to laugh.

Ian is adorable! Already he and Amy look alike!

Cute! Does she answer 'no' for everything, or have you already passed that stage? That was a fun one. I love being able to see your cute family.

I am hoping I can leave a comment this time. She sounds a lot like my 2 year old. Rascals. :)

Hey Renae, It's Hillary from way back when. . .we didn't have children :) You look great and your kids are darling. Do you still talk to Jenae ever? I am so excited that she is getting married. Are you going? If so it would be fun to see you.
