Trying to gain some control.

Recently, when my Dad was here, Gracie attempted to have a "talk" with him alone. It went like this,
"Papa, isn't there something you can do about your daughter? She always put things on my plate that I just don't like. Certainly because you are her Father, you can control her? Can't you tell her to stop?" Excuse me. Now I definitely know that I have a strong willed and opinionated daughter...BUT did I expect this. Stories like this are hysterical! I loved it.

So Ambitious!! Good for you Cole.




Cole learned how to ride a bike...YES, I said Cole learned to ride a bike!! He is 4. We were taking a walk on a path with some dirt, etc. which made it hard to ride on with training wheels. You could just see his frustration and he was mad that Gracie kept beating him, no matter what he did. So my dad and Robert said, "well what about if we take off your training wheels for you?" Cole looked at them and very meekly said, "now?" It was really funny. So we got home and took them off and he picked up the bike and started riding. He was riding it and doing jumps off the curbs within the hour. A born natural...so incredible!! We were so extremely proud and got some great video. AND I learned how to post it, see below!!
