Damn Pinocchio! Yup, I did it. I swore on my blog :) So, Bella got on this kick to watch Pinocchio, and after watching it with her a couple times, I was like, okay, this movie's kinda cute. Not so bad. Until she started picking up lines from it. Near the beginning, when he's turned into a real boy, they go to bed. Geppetto tells Pinocchio to go to sleep, and Pinocchio asks, "but why?" And then it began. EVERYTHING I say to Bella is followed by "but why?". Cute for a while. But it's been longer than a while. BECAUSE I SAID SO!! Okay, I'm not really that annoyed by it! It would actually be fun if she was old enough to explain things to, but she's not. So I'll try to answer her question, and it's followed by another "but why?". What am I gonna do with this girl???
On a happier note, we got family pictures a few weeks ago and they turned out really cute. I was happy to get outside, out of a studio, and just kind of have some fun. Bella was a stinker, isn't much for posing for the camera lately, but Evan was having a blast hamming it up every chance he got.
I love my babies and they're just so stinkin' cute all the time! Other than family pictures, we haven't had a lot going on. We just keep working and hoping for a better job for Ryan. The usual...I'll post again shortly, probably, because Bella and Evan both have birthdays coming up soon. I hope Bella's comes soon, because somebody got the idea in her head that it's almost her birthday, and I've heard of nothing else since. She doesn't even know what it means, but she's excited for it! We have a paper chain for it, and she gets to pull one off each morning. I'm hoping this will help her understand days and stuff. So far, she just calls the paper chain her birthday and wonders why we're pulling her birthday apart! Oh well!
