How can a girl be sooooo different????

Sis covered in parmesan noodles.
The boys this morning playing Pokemon (again) before Cobe left for school. Cobe had farm day at school so he had to dress up for his student teacher's party. Today is her last day and she liked their farm unit the best so they are surprising her with a farm party. (Of course Brooks had to dress just like his big bro.)

Okay, I have two well-mannered, relatively calm, pretty neat and tidy boys. Even when they were young, they never seemed to make messes. Then along came Sadie. She is a wreck! She is full of life and always makes us laugh with her goofy antics, but she is a total mess. Let me hear from you moms of little girls- are they all a mess? It seems like the moms I know who have girls, seem to think the same thing. It seems backwards- everyone thinks boys are the rough, messy ones. Sadie can take down her two brothers single-handedly! The picture above of her is not as bad as it got, but she decided to rub her noodles all over her face, hair and body instead of eating them yesterday at lunch. Neither of my boys would have ever thought to pull such a stunt. As you can see in the pic, she was pretty pleased with herself. Anyway, I know God blessed us with her because she adds so much happiness and laughter to our lives, plus a little stress to keep us grounded. :-) Enjoy your Friday and weekend! Please post a comment if you have any great little girl stories. I am sure most of you that have girls have little, sweet angels. :-) The sugar and spice saying had to come from somewhere and it ain't coming from Sadie Claire Huizenga!

So, are you really ready to hear from me, a mother of a daughter, you? I don't remember the messy part, but temperments....Wow! The boys had even, pleasant dispositions and when you were 4, I considered abandoning you where ever I happened to be! Now, I can honestly say, I'm glad I didn't. (I'd be in jail, but more importantedly, you wouldn't have grown up to become my best friend.)
Love ya,
Mom

That's so fuuny! Eva is very clean! She doesn't like to get dirty AT ALL!!! IF she gets dirty while eating dinner or something, she ask me to, "Clean it Mommy," or "Nakin Mommmy." She didn't like sand 'cause she felt dirty, although she did better a couple of weeks ago. Isa, it's hard to tell how she's gonna be yet, but she is NOTHING like Eva so far.LOL

Presley loves to tear apart her room. While I'm in the shower it's a free-for-all. All the clothes get pulled from the closet and pants get thrown from the dresser. Other than that she's pretty rough and tumble because she really only gets to play with boys. All her cousins, except one are boys & daycare is always boys. Poor girl!!
