On Sunday while getting ready for church, Karlee decided she needed to fix Maddi up a bit. She ran in the bathroom and said "Mommy, you need to see this, Maddi is such a cutie pie!" I couldn't help but laugh when I found a total of 8 bows in her hair. She was so upset when I told her we needed to take them out for church. It is so funny how Karlee thinks Maddi is her own personal life size doll.
My sister gave us this idea and so far it works great. Instead of using the naughty chair or sending them to there rooms we make them hold a quarter on the wall with there nose until the timer rings. It sounds like a cruel and unusual punishment but they have to hold still, can't talk and if the quarter drops, the time has to start over. Yesterday during dinner I had enough of there bickering so they both got in trouble. I was trying not to laugh, but it was pretty funny.

Monday Cannons class had a mothers day program. It was lots of fun to see my son actually singing and participating. It was a great mothers day treat.
I remember singing this song when I was little. So cute!

Do you think that quarter thing would work for Nixon or is he a lost cause? Maddi does look so cute. Good job Karlee!
