Lexie and Fred

I could write a book on the sayings of Lexie. The other day we were at the pool and if you know us you know that me and Kim have always called the little brown butterflies that are always around pools Fred. We would always say that it was the same butterfly and he loved us and always came back to visit. Well, Fred was there at the Farms pool and Lexie wanted to catch him really bad. Instead of being still and letting him come to her, she, in true 3yr old fashion was chasing him around. As she was chasing him she was saying, "Please come here butterfly. I will love you and take a bath with you. Just let me catch you."

Last night I was telling her that eating carrots make your eyesight better. We went outside where it was getting dark and Lexie exclaimed, "Mama, I can see in the dark. You know why, because I have carrots in my eyes."

Also Mimi is the root of all evil. If she does something wrong or says something she is not supposed to she always blames it on Mimi. We will ask her where did you hear that...Mimi. Lexie is fascinated by Mimi's tattoos. I keep catching Lexie giving herself tattoos with an ink pen or any thing she can find to write on herself. She even watched the show Miami ink with us and was totally absorbed in it. I finally broke down and told her how you get a tattoo, big needles and all, and it didn't faze her. This is the child who is scared to death of the doctor. Who screams her head off when she gets shots, who has kicked the doctor repeatedly. All she said was, "When I get big I'm going to get a Scooby doo one!"
