always a good laugh

Unfortunately Steve & I don't live close to any of our nieces and nephews so of course we take advantage of the time we do get to spend together when it comes along! (More myself than Steve, I think so many little girls intimidate him, he sticks to the little boys). Anyway, my sister Abbie, and soon-to-be-medical-school-graduate brother-in-law, Josh (an early congratulations to him!) came up to Utah for a few weeks after he finished his rotations and before graduation to spend time with the families.

Highlight of the trip (besides spending time with you Josh, of course) was Tienna.
She's at that hilariously funny age where everything that comes out of her mouth has a "what did she just say?" response.

A few examples.

Steve & I decided to take Tienna on a movie date one night while they were here. We picked her up, goodie bag in hand, and went to see "How to Train Your Dragon" and get ice cream. One the way out of the house while we were putting our shoes on she said,
"I totally like your shoes Aunt Jessie." We all laughed.

The next best was every time she'd get close and see my necklace Steve gave me for my birthday she'd say
"Oooh Aunt Jessie, that's such a beautiful necklace! Who gave that to you?"

On the third bathroom trip of the evening during the movie night we walked into the handicap stall to go potty and she looked around,
seemed very disoriented and said, "Wow! This stall is ginormous!"

To hear her very advanced vocabulary and frequent corrections on "Uncle Steve is handsome, not beautiful, boys are handsome, girls are beautiful", etc. is always so hysterical!

Until Steve & I have kids of our own (might be a while) I am going to continually dote over Madelin, Halle, Meagan, Tienna, Zoe & Kiara,
Dane & the other little boy coming this summer because kids are so hilarious and adorable!
