F-U-N-N-Y Kids

1.
Cody is becoming quite the speller. Every Friday he has a spelling test and has been doing really well on them. But his spelling doesn't stop there. This kid spells at least one word in every sentence he speaks. It's pretty entertaining actually. Especially when he is upset and can't quite spell the word correctly because he is so worked up. It is similar to someone being mad and trying to shut a door or something, but because they are so upset they can't get the door to stay latched and they get more and more flustered with every attempt.

The other night Steve was tickling Cody who was completely laid out on the floor and laughing so hard he couldn't get up. Through his hysterical laughing you could hear him trying to spell S-T-O-P. Because he couldn't really breathe it took a few attempts to get all of the letters out, but he wouldn't give up and just say the word.

Cody and Kylee were fighting about something in the other room. When I asked what was wrong Cody said, "Kylee is doing her best not to share."

I guess you could say he had discovered one of Kylee's talents. She seems to be an over-achiever in that area lately.

This morning I was checking my email while Livy was sitting on the floor on a blanket and Kylee was running around and chattering away. Then Kylee said, "Mom, I'm playing hide and seek with Livy." Pretty funny considering Livy is not on the move yet.

Then it made me laugh to hear comments like: "OK Livy. Your turn to hide," or "Come get me Livy!"
