Reese and the Boys

From left: Charlie (behind Gus), Gus (kissing Sam's head), Bryant (behind Sam), and my sweet Reese (biting Sam)

I started a little playgroup rotation with 3 other girls in my ward who have kids about the same age. It's only once a week from 9-11:30 and we each took a week to have all 4 kids at our house. Reese was born in December, so she missed the cutoff for the Bella Vista preschool. We do a mommy and me swim class once a week also, but i wanted her to have another outlet to play with friends that are all her same age. This week was my week to host (the photo was taken 2 weeks ago when Reese's friend, Charlie hosted.) Just thought I'd share some funny conversations I've picked up at these little playdates...

Charlie: Can we go outside?
Meg: Not yet, it's still too cold, we'll go outside later, after snack.
Charlie: Can we have snack?


Sam: Oooh, I want some Oreos!
Reese: You have to wait till after the Sacrament


Reese ran out of the bathroom naked from the waist down...
Sam: (takes one look at her "girl parts" and says) Reese! You've got a crazy bum! Go in there and put it back on!

LOL I was thinking about the same stories of you and Mere attacking the other kids in nursery. By the way, I love Reese's pig tails - I think bald babies are sooo cute, esp when they get to be toddlers and they have cute little pig tails!!!

Meg--try saving your drawing as a jpeg file--it should work then.

reese came home from nursery with a black eye. Apparently she decided she wanted a toy that another kid had...so she tried to take it. This resulted in a tug of war match. Finally, he gave in and let go, sending Reese backward into a wall, and the toy right up into her face. Part of me feels just awful that MY kid is always the naughty one. This same part of me wants to warn all the other parents not to let their kid play with mine, because she is mean...this is also the same part that makes me think i am a bad parent. The OTHER part of me wants to go "way to not back down, honey! You show that kid whose boss!" Perhaps i should enroll in some parenting classes or something because this is apparently the side of me that is coming out more often.

You should be proud that Reese inherited Grandpa Sam's grip. I hope my kids will be able to crush the wrists of other punks that try to mess with them.
