Ruth was splashing water on me and i was starting to get irritated at her and asked what she was doing. She had such a serious look on her face until she looked up at me, then she sheepishly said she was throwing water on me so I would grow a baby.

Marcus was reading Ruth a Book of Mormon Story in the other room and all of a sudden i hear Ruth say "Those people are getting Bath-tized!"

We have been having going to bed issues lately. It takes on average 1 1/2 hours to get Ruth in the sleeping mode. So it was Marcus' turn to go tell Ruth to go to sleep and after a few seconds silence Ruth started crying. I assumed Marcus had been stern with her and didn't think to ask him what she was moaning about. I went up to take my contacts out about 10 minutes later and Ruth was still whining so i poked my head in and asked her what the problem was and she started babbling something about a turtle and Daddy wouldn't let her and back in bed... So i just said "Go to sleep Ruth" and left that didn't help so i just went downstairs (she was asleep 5 minutes later after an hour and 45 minutes of playing) I asked Marcus what she was talking about, something about a turtle. He started laughing and said when he got up there, Ruth was laying on the ground under the laundry basket and she started crying when he put her in bed. He said she started moaning for Mom because Mom would let her be a turtle. Gotta love the kids imagination.

Neil said Aubrey. That was the first name he's said. he also says: 'Ees' (yes) 'Uh-Uh' (he says is like he is saying no, but it means yes) 'Ooow' (out) he says that to Wendy when he sees her in a big gruff voice. Sometimes when he is bored he will say "UUHH-Uhhhhhh" On the first 'UUHH' he makes his body do a little jump/twitch thing and he says it real loud. on the second 'Uhhh' he relaxes and says it softly. he things its so funny.
