I will not be ignored!!!

Ryan would kill me for posting this, but it is too funny not too! So, sorry babe if you read this, but I had to share. I just HAD to!

Sunday morning, Ryan and I were cleaning the house. The only chore Leah so far really likes to help with is the "spraying"...windex, clorox clean-up, you name it, she's the fastest sprayer in town!

I was in the kitchen cleaning all the gunk that accumulates in the strange places (like that tiny little crack between the stove and the counter)...yuck!) Leah's job was to carry the bottle of Windex back and forth between the dining room where Ryan was dusting pictures and the kitchen where I was washing windows and gunk.

When Ryan needed the spray, she would run it over to him and then when I called her for it she would get it from Ryan and run it back to me. Since she was so excited to be helping and doing a good job of it, Ryan and I started to ask for the bottle just after she had given it to the other one of us and she was suddenly in a frenzy! She was barely stopping between trips.

When she got to Ryan for the last trip, she expected him to hand her the bottle right away so that she could go on about her business of helping. He had apparently begun to day dream and didn't hand her the bottle right away. The following ensued:

She stops dead in her tracks and yells "DADDY...MOMMY NEEDS THE SPRAY RIGHT NOW!"

Still, no bottle.

"Daddy....DADDY....SHE NEEDS IT!!!".

Still no bottle.

"PLEASE DADDY, PLEASE!....She REALLY REALLY REALLY REALLY NEEDS IT!"

This was the straw that broke the camels back.

Without skipping a beat she reached out...

with both little hands...

and yanked his shorts down right to his ankles!

Now THAT's a woman who knows how to get people's attention!!!


(PS...does anyone remember what I used to talk about before Leah came along???)
