A few of our favorite things.

These photos contain a few of my family's favorites. They include Chloe and Leyla, my favorite two little girls. The bottom photo has Chloe's favorite sister. She loves to pet Leyla's hair and tries to assist Leyla when she's upset (as can be seen in the bottom photo). And of course, there's Chloe's favorite green fish that she always wants me to stick to her forehead. Chloe is wearing one of her favorite necklaces. And Chloe is wearing the favorite uniform of the household: underwear and only underwear. If anyone reading this ever happens to just pop by my house (highly unlikely), expect to wait a few minutes before I answer the door because I usually have to locate my clothing. It's too hot in Texas to wear clothes indoors if you don't have to. Time for me to get back to one of my not-so-favorite things: memorizing genus species of stupid little rodents and bats.

I have a couple more things I need to write before I go to bed. I don't keep an actual journal, so when I have things I want to remember, I write them here. A few days ago, I decided to save time and bring Chloe in the shower with me instead of giving her a bath. It was a great idea until I was brushing my teeth (which I also do in the shower to save time) and I caught a whiff of something rank. I looked down at Chloe and she had pooped in the shower. She wasn't phased by it at all. I knew going into the situation that Chloe was due for a BM (as her daycare calls them), but for some reason I figured she wouldn't carry out with it in the shower. I figured wrong. Also, Leyla slept for a 7 hour stretch two nights in a row this week. I guess that's good, but I worry that when she goes that long without eating, it's going to reduce my milk supply. I hope that doesn't happen. ok, i'm done now.

Ok, I didn't think you could get any funnier photos of Miss Chloe - I was wrong! That is quite hilarous and I love her trying to comfort little Leyla in her skivvies with the fish stuck to her head. I'm glad you posted the story of the "poopy shower" cause it is a classic, and take it from me, the queen of memory loss, if it isn't written down - you'll forget it sooner or later. (Sooner in my case). Hope your test goes well!

That fish is so funny! How does it stay on there? It looks pretty big. Haha, Chloe is so cute. It's great she's really accepted Leyla into the family. So cute!!

That fish on her head is HILARIOUS! Does she have fish hickies when it is off?
Too funny.
I too love the poop story. Classic.
She'll love that you recorded that one even more than the fish.

Great post. Chloe is a riot. The fish on the head..pooping in the shower. I have to say I gagged a little on that one cause you were brushing your teeth and could smell it...too funny.
