after fooling around in their room for two whole hours and not napping, the kids are playing. malloy's trying to make a "patterin" in the kitchen. (placing books along the floor and making a path to walk on). rex so badly wants to help her - she stands in the doorway and tries her hardest to redirect him somewhere else. she says "you sure gotta go in the hallway." she would gently lead him into the playroom. when he would try and resist she would push him. she replies, "i'm just swinging him". she must have done it again and she says "it's just like swinging" (meaning pushing is like swinging - my how positive!) rex actually stayed in the playroom - he must have found something more interesting than shadowing his sister! she yells into him from the kitchen, "you stay in there an play, ok baby?" he replies from the playroom "ok baby." LOL they have me laughing so hard at the moment!!! i'll take extra sillyness from not napping over the crankies anyday!!!
