My girls are growing up!

These two little kiddos are getting big! Scarlett is understanding EVERYTHING these days. Alice and Scarlett love to play in the toy room/closet these days and make a disaster. When they are finished I hear her say "okay Alice now we put it all away". Scarlett puts everything away perfectly! Oh, I love it! She wants to be a big girl so bad. Her favorite thing is getting prizes for good behavior. She always asks "hey mom, if I play with Alice do I get a prize? Can it be gum?" How can you deny that? She is such a big help and loves to do anything to make me happy. These past couple weeks we have been talking about the Holy Ghost and how it can help you make right choices. I hear her say all the time "the Holy Ghost told me to be nice" or "the Holy Ghost is in my heart and I am happy now". Talk about adorable.

Alice is in love with two things her bottle ( the "ba") and babies. She LOVES babies. And by babies I mean anything that is fuzzy, cute, little, and soft. She always has to grab her babies before we go anywhere. Alice is also a "momma's girl" and has a hard time warming up to strangers. She is really nice and smiley to them until they try to touch her... freak out. I secretly love it:) When I put her down her to bed she loves to say "boo boo" and grabs a book to read. Her favorite is one about a baby sleeping and every page she has to go "shh shh" putting her finger over her mouth. She knows to be quiet around a sleeping baby. After the book is done she grabs her baby and blanket and puts her baby to sleep in the crib. She is such a smart little girl and catches on so quickly. How I love watching her grow and learn!

Such a typical Alice look.
