could she be funnier?

she fell off a chair smack on her head. poor thing. i saw the whole thing. she was just trying to get down and her foot got stuck on her way down. she agreed that a band-aid would make it feel better. the bump/bruise was higher up on her hairline but she insisted on applying it on herself right where she did!

one morning my sister took natalie with her to take the kids to school. jammies were fine for the quick trip. on the way home there was a change of plans and they stopped at the grocery store. when jen took her out of the car she had these slippers on her feet. my sister thought they were the craziest thing she'd seen and wondered where she got them. but in the store they went. when natalie got home and was walking around i was like, "what's on your feet?" nat: "swippers." "what?" "swippers." i thought they must be a colorado thing and they were either one of the kids or jen just got them at the store for her. finally we both were cracking up asking where she got them and natalie said, "MY CARSEAT!" they are the armrest cushions to her carseat. we were laughing soooo hard!!!

it only takes one quick unattended moment for this to happen:

which is nothing compared to this a year ago:

she walked up to me to show me her hands covered in marker. and her forehead was obvious of course. so i got her washed up and then pulled off her clothes and wah-lah! there it was all over her belly too!
