Little Miss Bossy

Geeze... my little baby doesn't even look like a baby here does she? This is her watching one of her shows. Who knows which one... Probably the Backyardigans or Pooh.

Bossy pants barking orders into her echoing microphone from Auntie Meg and Uncle Jeremy. As if the orders she barks aren't loud enough, this mic makes them sound like she's yelling thru a megaphone.

Daddy and Paul ("Pup", as Layla calls him), following Layla and listening intently to her orders on where the next poop pile is.

Bean, pointing out precisely where the poop is that needs cleaning up. Oye.


Alright, so let's play catch up on the haps at the Sherman house over the last few weeks... This pretty much sums it up: Work for mom is insane in the membrane, work for dad is insaner in the membrane. Too much corporate speak and politics about the latest and greatest to go into detail so I'll spare you the crap and move on to the good stuff.

Layla is growing like a week and continuing to make us laugh. She is soooo funny. This morning we were getting ready for a family walk and apparently daddy was taking too long so she stomped out of the room and said, "Jeepers Cripes!!" Too funny. And thank God the "JC" she used this time was the "pc" version.

Layla's also turning out to be quite the boss. I think it's because they have "helper" days at school, where each kid takes a turn doing the days of the week on the calendar, the weather for the day (too funny, I know) and then they help line everyone up at the door. So, Layla comes home a lot waving her hands in the air like an orchestra director, yelling, "Everybody! Everybody! Listen up! Pay attention! Line up!" Obviously, the photos above of Layla barking orders at daddy on where the next pile of poop lies gives a good visual of her confidence when barking orders.

This weekend we'll be shipping out for our annual Easter trip to the Dells with the Meyers. I'm looking SOOOO forward to some chill time (well, as chill as you can get with a 2 year old, 2.5 year old and 6 month old) and some girl time with my Tee!!!

More to come...
