True Sneaky begins at 3

I know I've been seriously neglecting my blog. Sorry! It bugs me too cause this is their baby book. I think of some updates here...

Celia & Nicholas:
She and he have begun to be a bit sneaky. I didn't know this started at 3 years old. Examples:
1. Earlier in the day they were playing in a puddle on the basketball hoop. I didn't mind so much until Nicholas smeared mud on Celia's face. So it was off limits.
So later that same day i caught them playing in the puddle again and carrying some sand over to the puddle to mix. Nicholas saw me looking at them from the kitchen and said "Mommy, you're not supposed to look out here right now".
I said "I can see what you're doing over there"
He smiled and said "Don't you want to take pictures of us?"
He knows I about beg them to allow me to take pictures of them for practice, so he figured he could bribe me to forget what I've seen if he lets me take pictures of them.
Whose child is this? lol

2. Today I realized Celia wasn't in the livingroom with Nicholas and I said "Celia? Where's Celia"
Then "What are you getting in to Celia?"
I walk towards my room and I hear my bedside table door slam and see her reach for my slippers and she runs out saying "mommy!" and shoving a slipper in my face. I knew she was trying to distract me with my slipper. lol
Where do they learn this!?

There was another incident, but I can't remember right now.
Earlier this month we had Celia, Nicholas and Lauren at the park and Lauren had a sucker. Celia opened her arms to give Lauren a hug.... but also opened her mouth and tried to get a lick of the sucker while she hugged Lauren.

Sneaky, I tell ya! We had a talk about 'sneaky' in our house this week.

Aaron is crusing a lot, but he's such a cautious baby that he is so careful about how to get down and I think he's nervous to let go. Thats okay though. I can definitely see how the 'baby' of the family gets babied cause I don't want him to grow up too fast. He's such a cuddly boy. He will just melt into you and give the best baby hugs. He makes my day when he does that. :) As much as a baby his age is on the move all the time, those baby hugs and the 4 times a day I get to nurse him and hold him are the best. His 3 possible words are - momma, kitty, and maybe a rough 'hi'.

That's all for now. We're working on Letter D this week - dinosaurs.
