Dylan in total shock: Mom, look! When I walk my bum follows me.
(She is walking around the room staring at her behind in total amazement.)
Dylan: It goes everywhere I go! But it doesn't talk right?
Good morning.
This morning I needed both kids up early so I walked in their room and flipped the light on at 7:15. They were not thrilled to be woken up that way and both started rubbing their eyes. I reminded them why I was waking them up so they both decided it was a good thing and sat up. Then Logan rolled off his bed and fell flat on his face. He sat up and said "That's how I wake myself up. It usually works."
Kids are awesome.
Logan: When I turn into a Dad and need to find a part-en-er I will have to search and search. What if I never find my own part-en-er and then I never have a wife?
Me: You are too cute to have to search and search. You will find a wife. What about Lizzy?
Logan: Lizzy? We are just friends mom. We haven't fallen in love. Maybe if we fall in love we could get married. But thats just weird cuz we are just friends.
Me: Well what about Hannah? You already said you were going to marry her.
Logan: We are in love. But when we are a mom and dad I might not be able to get her to marry me. She might say no and not want to be my part-en-er.

Dylan wanted to play with her crayons and her dora book during the Sacrament on Sunday.
Keith: Wait until after the water to play.
Dylan: But I'm not thirsty.
Keith: We don't take the sacrament because we are thirsty. We take it to remind us about Jesus.
Dylan: Oh! Can I have a lot of water so I can think about Jesus a lot?
Favors
Keith was feeding Fin and needed a glass of water. The kids are always happy to help Dad and love having individual jobs.
Keith (in his super happy daddy voice): Dylan will you do me a favor?
Dylan: Yes Ma'am
Keith: Will you rinse out my cup and fill it with ice water?
Dylan: Yes daddy (she really responds this way when she is trying hard to be nice)
Keith: Logan will you do me a favor?
Logan: Yes, what?
Keith: Please put my dishes in the sink?
They both happily went about their favors. Then a few minutes later Dylan walked back in the kitchen.
Dylan (In her nicest Dylan voice): Will you do me a favor?
Keith: Yes ma'am.
Dylan: Will you make my bed.
Logan: Will you do me a favor? and do my dishes?
Both kids knew they weren't allowed to play with their friends until their chores were done. Smart kids. No Keith didn't do their chores, but he did help. Smart kids-you scratch my back and I will scratch yours.
**********************************************
Last night the kids got to talk with Grandma and Grandpa Knight on facetime cuz Grandma got a new ipad. Dylan thought it was so cool. As she was talking to Grandma she said "Can I see Grandma'P'. Somehow grandma understood what she was saying and turned the camera towards Grandpa Knight.
Funny Dylan
Dylan didn't want to come inside for dinner today so she threw a big fit on our way inside. All of our neighbors were outside enjoying the warm weather so she was mad she had to leave her friends. I still had to set the table, so I let her throw her little fit. She went out in the garage and slammed the door. She knew she wasn't allowed to leave, so she was showing us how angry she was by throwing her fit in the garage. She was screaming pretty hard, and Keith and I just assumed she was still in a huff about having to come in for dinner. Next thing we know all of our neighbors are in our garage coming to see her. She had fallen down the garage stairs and was laying upside down on her stomach waiting to be rescued. She had been crying for a couple minutes. Keith picked her up and brought her inside. We both felt horrible because we just assumed she was crying because she was angry-not hurt. As we talked to her afterwards, we found out she laid like that on purpose trying to get some attention. Go figure.
Random pictures
Not the best picture, but Fin LOVED the game Twister. He would just crawl back and forth under everyone. He thought he was pretty funny, and I think he thought he was playing the game.
Every picture I try to get of all 3 of the kids looks like this. Dylan is usually squeezing the daylights out of Fin, pulling that I love you SO much I can't contain myself face.
I thought this was cool that I caught him in the middle of making funny noises.
This was Saturday General Conference entertainment. Logan and Dylan painting Dad's fingernails.
We got home from running some errands and I ran upstairs to put Finley down for a nap and came down less than 5 minutes later to find Dylan asleep in our entry way. I have no idea how she fell asleep so fast. It was 4:00 in the afternoon, and she was supposed to be finding shoes to go outside and play.
I really hope this doesn't offend anyone. Please note that my kids are still little :)
Dylan was having a playdate with her cute friend Shelby. This was the first (at our house) of hopefully many playdates today. Shelby is the most darling little black girl you will ever see. And her and Dylan play VERY good together. Obviously living in Utah, my kids don't spend much time around black people...So Dylan and Shelby were playing make believe. They were working in a hospital giving massages to all the sick people. It was pretty hilarious to watch. Dylan would be the sick girl and Shelby would work really hard to make her feel better. Logan came in while Dylan was attending to her sick friend Shelby and he said "Dylan don't do that (meaning massage Shelby's back) You are going to get brown paint all over you!
Copy Cat
I have some funny pictures, I just haven't loaded them up yet and don't have time to do it. Had to post this before I forgot.
We were at Old Navy yesterday looking for family picture outfits. I was trying on a shirt in the dressing room and Dylan was sitting in front of the big mirror staring at herself saying "stop copying me, no you stop copying me, STOP COPYING ME, NO! you stop copying ME." I started laughing and then she said "that mirror can't stop!"
