no boys allowed...

no boys allowed...

that's right

those were the precise words uttered by these two girlie girls

well actually Madison said it first

and of course Hayley is in the stage where she repeats

every.single.thing her sister says

point two seconds later repeats it

for instance

Madison:    wahoo

Hayley follows:     wahoo

Madison:   I don't like this drink

Hayley  {before even trying it}:    I don't like this drink "eeether"

{yes either is spelled "eeether" for a reason...'cause that's how she says it}

Me:    Hayley you haven't even tried the drink

{Hayley tries the drink}

Hayley:     I do like this drink
Me:  told ya

Madison:   toodie  pants

Hayley:   toodie toodie pants

Madison:     banana head

Hayley:  banana head...ha, ha

they used to say banana pants which I have no idea where that came from
I thought...well...that maaaaaay not be the best thing for little girls to say
so I had to tell them
maybe banana head would be better to say to one another
maybe just getting rid of the banana all together would be best
maybe I'm reading into it tooo much...who knows

Me:

girls please don't whine

{I say this a lot during the evening it seems like}

Madison:    I'm not whining

Hayley:    I'm not whining "eeeether"
matter of factly I may add
I beg to differ half the time

Madison continues on:    no boys allowed

Hayley:    that's right, no boys allowed in the tent

it's really quite cute and doesn't annoy Madison

so all is good with that

I assume it won't be annoying to Madison until they get a bit older

but these two girls are convinced that their little tent

needed a sign that would read...

"no boys allowed

only girls"

"only giiiiiiirlsssss" was really emphasized

over

and

over

and

over

again

{which made me smile}

"that means Daddy...you cannot come in the tent

only we can"

they exclaimed with excitement

because Daddy is a "boy"

{as they chuckled}

"...and Mommy

....and Cadence

can come in the tent...because they're girls too"

{who would have thought, eh?}

so we were left with only one decision

a sign for their tent was absolutely necessary

and that way they'd have a sign to take anywhere 
where no boys would be allowed
{around the house, anyway}

they were insistant it should be done before Bobby gets back home

 a mini chalkboard, it was... 

of course they wanted pink ribbon

and we added white glitter around the edges
{glitter is always their favorite thing to use}

and there you have it

a super cute sign

that reads:

"no boys allowed"

and now it is placed nicely right outside their tent

I'd show you a picture by the tent but our loft is not well lit

and it's been really gloomy here lately so there is absolutely no light

but their conversations are pretty priceless right now

what they talk about

how long their conversations last

how they reason their decisions

which now has me thinking after we made this sign that
two more signs may just be in order for them

they both

well I should say Madison is really big on her alone time

at least once per day

and a
"do not disturb" sign

or "privacy please"

would be perfect for them

usually right after school Madison will say

   "I need some alone time"
or she just disappears into her room for a bit

Hayley of course repeats the exact same thing her sister said

"I need alone time too"
{but she really doesn't want alone time...
there is no alone time with her...
chuckle chuckle}

my response:

you got it!

absolutely!
{as I smile}

I see a trip to the store necessary for this one

yesterday the "no boys allowed" sign was made so last minute

we found supplies we already had

but for their personal "alone time" signs

 I think some new supplies they pick out may be necessary too

 

btw

little girls clothes
are soooo cute...

I cannot get over the cuteness
of ruffles
sparkle
and frills for them

I had to snap some photos before we had a family day Monday

they looked so darn cute
in these outfits my parents gifted them

yes I did just say my own girls looked cute

oh no

better call in the proud mama detail

btw...{by the way}

do you know how looooooooooong it took me to figure out what btw stood for

yah...

lets just say I'm finally getting the hang of the texting/fb lingo

maybe a year ago

before then

yep

I couldn't have told you a thing

and even had to look up what a few meant

that's how behind I am

and yes...I really did just admit that:)
