Crazy, Silly Bebe

Tonight for dinner we had barbecue chicken, corn on the cob, green beans and I made some cheese and garlic shells for Ashley to eat as well while we ate. She was shoveling in the pasta, but not the green beans. Tim told her to eat some green beans. She smiled and began to drop them over the side of her high chair - to Molly - whom we affectionately call "Hoose- Keep- Ping" AKA Housekeeper Molly. (Maybe more on this another day but family knows what I mean.) We acted like we did not notice and Tim gave her more pasta. She gobbled it up and when we reminded her to "Eat your pasta, Bebe" she picked some green beans up and LOOKED like she was getting down to business and would eat them. Before I continue, you have to understand that both the girls LOVE green beans. Looooove them. Anyway, she is picking them up and saying, "Ga. Ga" As if to say "Gone." She was clapping and smiling and happy. She was very pleased with herself. Then we saw what she was doing. Then we realized. This girl is going to be CRAZIER than we thought. And believe me - WE KNEW she'd be crazy, but we never thought - NEVER DREAMED - she could be THIS crazy. Especially at just ten months old. Ashley was throwing the green beans over her right shoulder and straight into Molly's clutches! And she showed NO. REMORSE. None. Crazy, crazy Bebe!

This picture of Ashley was taken Sunday when we were out to lunch after church. She is blowing kisses. My dad took this with my little "on-the-go camera." So cute, but oh so devious and clever!! (Pay no attention to the sweet potato between her fingers!)
And here's Bebe last night before bed - a creative way to use a pacifier...
I have plenty more to share about Bebe Miss and a lot of pictures but I don't have the time tonight to get them on here and caption them.

And not to disappoint (even though I posted already earlier today), here is a picture of Jenna in her new booster seat. I took it last week on the way home from school. At a stop light, don't worry! She LOVES her new big girl car seat. It even HAS. A. CUP HOLDER!! (Not in picture.)

Note: I have added two more labels and I can't believe I had not thought to add the first one before now...They are "Craziness" and "Table Antics."

Kelly, that is so hellarious! Melana doesnt do the over the shoulder thing, but she certainly gives my parents dog pleanty of food during her day over there.

By the way, Ashley's incision looks real good. It's fading very fast! Gone before you know it.

Thanks for all your thoughtful words to me on my blog! I know I've said it before, but I'm saying it again. Thank You!

PS...that is a beautiful picture of Jenna's face. She is so pretty.
