Heard Around Here:

Evelyn:1)"Mom I like living in Overton, better than Provo and our old house!" Me: " I am so glad so do I".
2)Me: (While watching Tv) Justin Bieber flashes up on the screen, he really needs to pull his pants up/lose the earings!" Evelyn: "But, Mom you love Justin Bieber....HA HA HA
3)*(While playing a Taylor Swift song in the car) Evelyn: "Mom is this Uncle Taylor Swift Singing?"
4)Evelyn: "Makenzie Bush". Me: "Why did you say that? Do you know who that is?" Evelyn:" No, I don't know why I said that...laughing". ** Makenzie Bush is a girl in our ward who is adorable, she probably hears me talking about how I want her to babysit our girls so badly.
5)Evelyn:" I am not gonna do that, I am gonna spank you, I'm not gonna do anything cause your the boss!!" (SCREAMING THIS WHEN I WANT/ASK HER TO DO ANYTHING, I AM DEALING WITH A TEENAGER RIGHT NOW. MAN I AM STUMPED AS TO WHAT I NEED TO DO, LOOKS LIKE I GOTTA PRY OPEN MY PARENTING BOOK!!
6)Lyla: "Eban (Evelyn), Mommy, Dada, Eyes, Ears, Nose, Mouth, Hair, Up....and she nods her head when she wants something as well.

Hey Tara I heard you say you were going to look up parenting books. I just wanted to tell you that I read a really good book that I liked when Savanna started giving me attitude about a year ago and it is called "A New Kid By Friday" by Kevin Leman. I thought it gave really good tips. Though I think a lot of sassiness has to do with age. Savanna is not as sassy since she turned 4. Hang in there when she gets sassy! I know it's hard. Your kids are adorable though and thank goodness are kids can be just as sweet as they can be difficult at times.

Oh Tara, Evelyn sounds hilarious. I had to laugh at the teenager thing because Ella is already worrying me...She calls me a little stinker all the time! I wish our kids could play together!!!
