Francie thinks she is a pretty big girl lately. She banned diapers from the house (we thought we should save some for long car rides but apparently she thinks she can just can go outside like dad if she needs to) Jannie told her it was more polite to say "A Gurl's Gotta Go when a Gurl's Gotta Go!" so she says "Gurl's gotta go Mom..." all the time now and tells me "A girl went" since she goes in and closes the door without me. She talks to her parents like she is a teenager sometimes too. Heff teases her and she says "DAD! It's un-ass-cepetable to antagonize me." and when Heff asked her if she was feeling happy or sad she said "Don't ASK me questions like that Dad!" Geeeez France.

She put my heels on and walked out to tell me "It takes a woooong time to wearn to walk in uncomfortable shoes Mom." Amen to that MaryFrances.

(please try not to notice the toilet seat left up in this picture :) How is a Gurl supposed to Go without falling in DAD?!)

She even had a sleepover party with Emmy, Roxy, Nina and Jannie staying up past midnight playing Blockus and making chocolate chip cookies. When I dropped her off she said "You can leave me here now mom."
