quick post

yestarday 6 flags opened. we were counting down the days all week!!! we had sooo much fun!!!! halle was finally 42 inches and kiera was finally 36 inches, both critical height requirements. kiera got to go on her first rollercoaster. she was sooo scared, but loved it! halle got to go on her first adult rollercoasters. one of them was 8 stories tall, 50 mph and does three upside down loops....she laughed and smiled the whole way, i screamed my head off....we both LOVED it!! she had to do it again with tom. its going to be a FUN year!!!

right now the girls are reading a flap book together. halle is reading it just like me. "can you find the dog, kiki?" "can you say ___" "open this one"....i love when i hear her be sweet to kiki, especially when i'm not in the room.

yestarday they shared kiki's slinky the whole way to altanta...they each got to pick out something in the dollar section at target, halle picked slippers, kiki a slinky. i said kiki didnt' have to share because it was her toy that she picked. they passed it back and forth the whole way there and the whole way home without one word from me or a word of argument......i love when they love each other!

from the other room i saw halle wrap her arms around kiki from behind her and say in her ear, "you look so pretty today."

kiki was sick with a cold the past week. while we getting ready for bed halle said, "mommy, can we say a prayer and ask Heavenly Father to make her feel better?"

I was reading the scriptures to the girls...they never listen and roll around the floor giggling...but halle heard the word repent and stoped and said, mommy, whats the word mean? i said, when we make a wrong choice, we say were sorry to the person we upset and in our prayers we say sorry to Heavenly Father and then He forgives us. Halle said, "mommy, i want to repent".....i know she doesn't need to repent yet, but i let her think of a wrong choice she made and repent that night. Halle is so happy when she is being good! she makes me so happy.

Kiki quotes,
"mommy, i like you, your nice!"
climbing up the playground...."i can do this and i'm just a little one!"
me, "kiki, are you a big girl?".....kiki, "no, i'm a big baby" (i think by 2 they should want to be a big girl, but kiki is REALLY lovin' being the baby around here)
kiki's favorite phrase lately, is to say, "guess what?" to get your attention and then says something rediculous....usually a bunch of potty words grouped together. but to strangers, she says, "guess what? ....."i'm kiera" or "i'm 2" or "that's halle and i'm kiera"
kiki was calling to halle who was running ahead of us at the playground. when we caught up kiki says, "halle, when i call your name, you answer me!"....i wonder where she learned that phrase!
