Moderation of "Kisses"

Just so everyone knows, I did not teach Ellie anything about FRENCH KISSES. She asked how Belle kissed, I couldnt think of anything quickly enough so I just did double kisses!
I just thought that I'd let everyone know, Elisabeth does not know what French kissing is.
Gee wiz.

Kisses

Oh my goodness, today was SO funny! Elisabeth was cracking me up!!
I taught her how to do butterfly kisses, doggy kisses, fishy kisses, Belle kisses, and people kisses.

Butterfly kisses: blinking eyelashes on their cheek.
Doggy kisses: rubbing noses together.
Fishy kisses: make fish lips and kiss.
Belle kisses: (basically french kisses) kiss on both cheeks.
People kisses:....well. just a normal kiss.

So she just got a crack out of all of these kisses, and in between each one she would say "Tight squeeze!" and give me a huge hug! (she was sitting on my lap). And then once we had gone through the whole list of kisses a few times she started making up weird named kisses that ended up just being a normal kiss, or a kiss on the cheek. UNTIL. After a really silly "tight squeeze" she said "MAN KISSES!" and shoved her face right against my chest, then she just rested her head there for a few seconds, sat back up and grinned this huge cheeser grin. I asked, "Ellie, what are 'Man kisses'?" and she said, "MAN KISSES!" and again stuck her face right against my chest! Oh my heavens, I started laughing SO hard I couldnt breathe for at least 30 seconds! I just had to get on and blog about it. hah. Anyway, I've got to go, but I just thought I'd warn everyone about the new "Man kisses". hehe. Beware!
Oh how children know so much, and yet so little at the same time.

Swimming

Oh my gosh! I just had to post this because it was so so funny! Today Stephanie took Nathan to the doctors, so Ellie and I went swimming at their club pool. While we were there she was running from the "big pool" to the "hot pool" and enjoying every minute.
Once while we were in the "hot pool" with the bubbles swarming all around us, she raised her arms to find white all up her hands and forearms.
"LOOK!! I have pretty pretty Cinderella gloves!"
I was laughing so hard! So for the next hour we made short gloves, long gloves, hand gloves, finger gloves, and body gloves (the last ones didnt work out as well as we had hoped)
Oh the imagination of a child. .... I love it!

Weddings and such

Do not fear everyone, the mono is gone-o! hehe. It really wasnt that big of a deal, although I do apologize to anyone if they caught the dreadful thing because of me. Outside of work I always forgot about this so I'd share drinks and food. hehe. oops.
So in the time that it has been since I've written, my lovely friend Leslie Martinez became Leslie CHRISTENSEN! =) and I am so so so so happy for her and Cade. They are adorable and Les looked exquisit at her reception. Also my lovely Whitney Gleave became life long - eternity long soul mates with the dashing Ryan Howes. Their reception was amazing! It was held at the Grand America Hotel in SLC, and, wow-I tell you what, wow!
So anyway, all the friends are getting married, yay. Marriage is cool...(or so I've heard)
