You Stop It! Daddy!!!

Paige has a little game she plays with her daddy called "You Stop It!" When Paul gets home from work she runs to him to give him a kiss. As soon as she gives him a kiss she starts in on "You Stop It! She says it over and over, sometimes in a normal voice, other times she screams it and sometimes she whispers so quietly we can barely hear her. During the day I will ask her where Paul is and triggers the "You Stop It!" command in her head. So we got it on video today...here it is! We need to get some video of the boys.



Today I took the boys to the reptile store here in town. I was getting sick to my stomach in the store because it was filled with snakes and lizards. Which are probably my two biggest phobias. When we walked into the front of the store I wanted to turn around and leave...but I stuck in there for their sake. As we wandered to the back of the store and we were looking around I turned and jumped out of my skin. There was a lizard named "Godzilla" that was probably at least 6' long and easily 150 lbs. AHHHHHH! Then I walked around another section of cages and there laying curled in a huge mass was a boa. (I think, I didn't care to pay that much attention to it.) The kid who worked there told me it was over 16' long and weighed over 200 lbs. Is that even legal? He claimed she was harmless. What do they feed that thing? In the front of the store they have cages full of rats, at all different life stages. Poor things are just being bred to feed all of the money making reptiles. We are hoping (not to!) to take our preschool group there for a field trip. Maybe some good video coming up.

She is such a cute yet mischievous kid! I love that she looks so sweet, cuddly, and adorable all the while trying to bite you in the same video clip!!!!

Hold it over her when she is older!! Just randomly walk up to her at her wedding reception and bite her!!!
