Bailey Quotes

I took a weekend to visit my friend Michelle in Coeur d'Alene.  The night of my return, after Syd walked right past me and went straight to my mom, Bailey said, "I want to cuddle with you....ya...cuz I haven't cuddled with you around cuz you were with Michelle...ya"

In the car Sydney was getting a little antsy.  I asked Bailey to reach her a toy.  She tossed Freddie the Firefly (a favorite toy months ago for Syd) over to her and she said, "Here Syd, it's not a real bug!"

Bailey and I went in to Syd's room as she was waking up.  Bailey was so excited to see her, jumping up and down and saying Hi and Good Morning.  She said, "My favorite part of her body is her chubby chubby neck!!  What's your favorite part, Mom?"

Bailey Quotes

Our Bailey is quite a pip! While hanging out with Daddy in the morning as he was getting ready for work, she put on quite an act. All of a sudden she runs out of our room saying "don't go...don't go...don't go...".  She was headed to her room to get her stool.  She brings it into our bathroom to get on the toilet.  As she sits down, she says, "ok peepee, you can go," with a sigh of relief.  Explaining why she can't go to the bathroom in the middle of the night: "so tired....I have lots of yawns."

"If you want to lift a head over your chair, you have to be very strong.  See?" She flexes her biceps for me.

Racing to the mailbox one afternoon: "Look how run I can fast!!!"

Last Night of Skiing

 TJ took Bailey skiing on Wednesday evening, probably the last tracks of the year.  It was a beautiful night to ski.  Just look at this sunset!  Bailey is definitely getting the hang of skiing.  What a difference a year makes.  She still loves to have some snow on her glove so she can eat some while going down the slope.  On this night, Bailey was skiing in "mashed potatoes," as TJ called it.  It had been warm that afternoon to melt some snow, causing it to turn into slush.  One time down the slope, Bailey started yelling and screaming, "Ahhhh, it's a bear!  It's a bear!"  She was pretending that a bear was chasing her down the mountain.  TJ was skiing behind her, getting some looks from the other skiers on the mountain.  It was very amusing.  In the lodge for some dinner, then back out for a couple of more runs before they headed home from Bogus.

"I'm a Queen"

I was tickling Bailey the other day. I stopped for a second to let her catch her breath and she said, "Daddy, don't touch me! I'm a Queen!" I was speechless.
