seen and heard

heard

the other night we stopped by dairy queen to reward the kids for being good. inside they had 3 stools that were the perfect size for the kids to sit on, ethan was on one, makenzie was in the middle and i was holding tessa on the other side. when makenzie and ethan got their cones i asked makenzie to share with tessa, to overt some sort of banshee scream from tessa. makenzie obliged and then:

me - "ethan can you share you ice cream with tessa?"
ethan - "uh, no i too far away!"

heard
later on while there i asked if i could have some of his cone and here is what i got after taking a small bit:
ethan - "no daddy, only a lick. like this (he then lightly touches his tongue to the ice cream). not a bite."

heard
while getting ready for church yesterday i told makenzie that she needed to go and find cherisse to get her hair done. ethan trying to stick up for his sister.

ethan - sternley saying, "kenzie's not going to do her hair."
makenzie - "ethan if i don't do my hair, i will have crazy hair. do you want me to go to church with crazy hair?"
ethan nodding to concur that no one needs to go to church with crazy hair.

seen
on the way home from church yesterday afternoon tessa and ethan fell asleep. makenzie reached over and held ethans hand after she realized that he was asleep.

heard
yesterday before makenzie and ethan came back down stairs i interrupted this little reunion.
makenzie standing in front of ethan holding a blue and a brown dress.

makenzie - "ethan, which one should i wear."
ethan - "da blue one." (his only choice for his own attire is blue)
makenzie - "thanks ethan."
