This sweet face looks innocent - right? Think again!
Scene at our house 3 days ago: Ella and Adele are under the kitchen table playing "clubhouse".
Ella: "Adele, pick a secret password. It can be any word, any word at all." She then leans over into Adele's ear and whispers, "Adele, say poopers."
Me: (sternly) "Ella!!!"
Ella: "Or butterflies, or bubbles."
Oh man!
Scene at our house yesterday: I'm about to put Adele down for a nap.
Me: "Adele, it's time to go take a nap."
Adele: "No mom, play!"
Ella: running over to Adele and whispering in her ear, "Adele, just go hide."
Sheesh!
Two other times Ella has tried whispering mischievous things into Adele's ear. Each time I tell her the importance of being a good example and doing what's right. She finally looked at me today and said, "mom, how can you hear me? I'm whispering!" I told her that moms can hear everything. She seemed satisfied with the answer, but then answered back, "yeah, but dad's can't!"
Anyway, her birthday is around the corner and I'm a little hesitant what the 4 year old age has in store for us! :)

I LOVE the sneaky little one :) Such a funny girl. :) I can't believe she's going to be 4 soon! YIKES!
This sounds exactly like Eden and Dean. Too Funny! I really like the Dad comment. It sounds straight out of Edens mouth.
Love it Lindsay! As one older sister to another, isn't half the fun getting the younger ones to do the dirty work? Just don't tell Annie I said that ;)
