1. I can cut her nails in the morning and by mid-afternoon she can still scratch me in the neck.
2. She will say a word or two out loud, plain as day, and then it goes in the vault never to be heard again.
3. She likes to pull herself up on my shirt (when I'm not wearing a bra) and show everyone my boobs. The "boob grace" I gave (compliments of Frankie) at the Chinese restaurant is my personal favorite.
4. Nasty, gross, chewed up food that is all over her hands needs to go on my face.
5. When we leave for camp at night, she would rather whine than sleep in the car. How about this? YOU drive and I'LL sleep. You won't hear me whining!
6. The remote with the batteries is way more fun to play with than the designated "Frankie Remote" without batteries.
7. Her toys will randomly go off at 3 in the morning. "YELLOW! YELLOW!" That's fun to wake up to.
8. She won't eat the "Pizza Hot Pocket" she loved a few days ago, but she will happily put sand, sticks and stones in her mouth.
9. When we sit by the door and I say "open" a million times, she will look at me like I'm from Mars, but she has no trouble pushing it open it when I'm in the middle of peeing.
10. The clip or barrette I try to put in her hair makes her crazy, but the stinky load of meal memories she's totin around in her diaper isn't bothersome in the least.
Kids are weird.
Mine included.

ya know, I really like that you point out the daily weirdo-things of kids. I did day care for years (actually started school for that but decided skipping class was WAY cooler...) and all your posts ~ except for the poop in the tub, Thank God~ I can relate to a bit. And I never really thought about it till you put it in black and white! So, are you now wearing many layers tucked in tightly to keep from Frankie giving people peep shows, or is that just part of the daily routine now? :)
Rob, Cody & F.J.
You are becoming such a family! Even with the 'free shows' Rob - lol - you make me laugh daily as I read these - It's my blog of the day - every day -
Miss ya!
Talk to you Monday!

This is so much better than the traditional "baby book" and Frankie will love it someday. You really give us such a fun account of what she's doing and how she's developing....and also how much she's loved! Thanks for letting all of us go along for the ride!!
