Bloody noses in 3D

Your Honor ... please enter photo #1 into evidence.

Yes my friends. That is a bloody wad of toilet paper that you are seeing. It is the result of one tiny little girl with one gigantic temper ... or something. I would like to think it's only because she doesn't have the words yet ...... not that she is a sassy little fire ball. ALREADY!!! Her daddy calls her bossy and she is living up to that little pet name! Unfortunately. So here is what went down.
Edie was sitting on the floor playing with the cordless phone. Ella sashays by, reaches out and grabs the phone. And keeps on walking...until Edie throws herself backwards, stiffens and starts wailing. Now this is not an uncommon occurrence here at Casa Marbut. One would believe that Edie should be the bully because she is so much larger ... but don't let size fool you people. What happened next has us all in shock ... Ella stops in her tracks, turns around and THROWS the phone at Edie hitting her square in the nose. Then, THEN she turns around and sashays off .. as if to say ..."there you big baby"!!! Heaven help us!!!
Now while Ella Grace is a little spitfire ... Edie Claire is a little daredevil. I left them for less than a minute this morning. They were standing at the counter (the only place I can get them to eat now) and I ran upstairs ....very very briefly. I came back to this.........

I bought the sweeties some sidewalk chalk ... it's supposedly 3D so it came with some glasses.......that they LOVE to wear. I think because it distorts things a bit making it look all rainbowy ....here is Edie all hyped up with her glasses on.....



We will have some fun pics later in the week ... my friend Letha is coming to visit us tomorrow and it's her first time meeting E Squared!!! Fun times!!!

I think Edie is learning to be the daredevil so that she can escape the wrath of Ella :)
They're already giving you a run for your money, heaven help you!!!

I'm so glad to hear that someone else has this issue. We haven't had bloody noses yet, but Matt spiked his sippy onto Hailey's head this morning. The counter climbing would have scared the crap out of me!

Could Edie possibly be Claire's double? She is Edie CLAIRE right?!?!?! The tantrums that are thrown at my house are out of control, so bad that I had to close the window yesterday so the neighbors didn't think I was abusing her - which I wasn't - unless you call telling your child "no" abuse, in which case I was.
