More cute stuff Adell says...


Will and I were sitting on our bed with Adell, I cannot remember what we were talking about but in reply to something I had said, Will said: "You're all about the details." Adell looked up at Will and said "No Daddy, we don't have any tails!"

Adell has figured out how to tattle-tale on the big kids. Most of the time she says things like "Lorien is na-noying me!" But lately she has been saying "Momma, Wyatt chubbed me!" I thought she was saying "shoved" and would make Wyatt apologize for pushing her. Wyatt would protest. One Saturday afternoon Adell tattled to Will, he bent down and said, "Show me how Wyatt 'chubbed' you.". She put her hands up to Will's face and squeezed his cheeks with both of her hands saying "Chub!". "Chubbed" as in squeezing her chubby parts. Clarity!

Adell woke up from her nap one afternoon and as I got her out of her crib she asked for all of her blankets and stuffed animals to be brought out too. My arms were stuffed with a 2 year old and all of her bedding. As I walked down the hall Adell said "It's so comfortableeee!" then she paused and said "What does the word say?" I responded: "Comfortable?" Adell reiterated: "Oh yhea, it's so commmmmfortable!"

Out of the blue one afternoon Adell walked up to me and asked "Momma, can I have two dollars?"
"You don't even know what a dollar is!" I responded.

Lately she has started asking us: "So, what can I do for you?"

At a doctors appointment for me she remembered that getting my blood pressure checked was "Now your arms get to have a big hug?" and she also remembered that I get to "Pee in a cup!" as part of the check up...sweet.

When Will comes home from work he is greeted by all of his kids enthusiastically jumping into his arms. Adell always cuts in line to jump first and then insists on jumping into his arms for more hugs after each of the kids get a turn...so the line up goes some thing like this: Adell--hug. Lorien--hug. Adell--another hug. Wyatt--hug. Adell--another hug. Clare--hug. Adell--another hug. After Will has made the rounds with the kids Adell says: "Daddy come and see your beeeg (big) Momma!" and walks him into where ever I am in the house saying "Here she is Daddy, here is your beeeg Momma!" I think she is just saying it because Will says "Where are all my big kids?" when he gets home--but she might be noticing my expanding size too.

I sure can't blame Wyatt for chubbing her! So cute!
