Ouch!

So yesterday this adorable little girl starts crying in the hall. When I ask her what happened she cries "Bite! Ouch!" so I pick her up and ask her where she got bit and she shows me her arm, which has 4 perfectly clear little teeth marks. I then say "ooh, did you bite yourself?" she then screams "YES! OUCH!". It was so cute. She totally bit her own arm, hard enough to leave prints behind. Poor little thing, it was so cute and dang funny.

Our little Leila has been talking up a storm the last few weeks. Some of my favorites are bite (of course), mine, no, hailey (which is more like He-ee), please (pees), drink and I love Nana (banana). yesterday when we were painting she said red, blue, yellow, and purple, but those were just mimicks she doesn't know what they are yet. But I cannot believe how big she is getting already. I miss her being a baby, she is definitely the baby of the family but I miss her being an actual infant. This is however one of my favorite ages. They are so much fun to play with and they are so explorative and just sweet and fun. I love it. Sometimes I think I am too blessed, like what did I do to deserve such a great life ( but we all probably think this right?).

She bit herself?!!! What a funny girl! At least it was her own doing........in church the other week, a little boy came running up to Kylee and bit her so hard on the arm. Any harder and he would broke the skin wide open. I couldn't believe it! What's with kids and biting!?? They crack me up!

If you need an infant fix you can hang out with Penelope whenever you want. She's just 6 weeks old and pretty much sleeps all day. It's awesome. Landen on the other hand is about Leila's age and he's a handful. I don't really have a favorite age, they all drive me nuts and make me smile however old they are.
