A kid again?
Yesterday we met my sister-in-law, Sarah, at McDonalds for lunch. The kids are big enough to play there now and with the 24 degree weather they have lots of energy to burn. We had a nice lunch and then after an hour and a half of playing it was time to go. We rounded up most of them (there's six total). We were all standing at the bottom of the play structure yelling at Danielle to come down. She sat up there and stared at us, and we all thought she was confused on how to get down. We sent both boys, Keegan and Brayden up to help her. They coaxed, tugged and pulled, but she wouldn't come down. At this point I was sweating with all of my winter clothes on, and getting more frustrated by the second. I took off my shoes and climbed up! What fun! (not so much) It's always nice to feel like a huge giant as you're trying to squeeze through the levels. I finally reached the top and Danielle took off in the opposite direction. She thought it was a fun game! She knew exactly what she was doing the whole time! I had to chase after her on my knees, which hurts! I finally caught up to her and shoved her down the slide and I sailed down behind her. She was laughing the whole way! I tell you this girl is the sneakiest, most stubborn thing I have had to deal with in a long time! What are the next few years going to bring?

I look forward to your posts, they crack me up! Wouldn't you have loved to have known what she was thinking?!
Don't those things kill your knees!!!!! And back! Ethan is not a huge fan of them unless he has friends going with him, well he got scared up there one time and was crying at the top of his lungs for me to come up and get him, well I was 8 months pregnant at the time! There was no way I was going to fit, luckily a nice little girl was able to help him down along with me coaching him out!
Daniel is sneeky! Gotta love her personality! She will be lots of fun, especially as a teenager!
I guess so far I'm lucky. Tucker is scared to death of those tunnels! Although I'm sure I'm not safe for long... Addie doesn't seem like the timid type! Your kids crack me up, you ALWAYS have a funny story to tell (although Im sure its not so funny all the time).
When "General" Dani teams up with her cousin, "Admiral" Alli; they will be a force to test the limits of their parents' patience, strike fear in the general public and cause boyfriends to bow at their altar.
