Dex Knows...

Oh, my little Maddie is getting quite the imagination. I wondered when the day would come that she would just want to pretend all day in her room (well, that day hasn't quite arrived). However, today she was having a long conversation on her new cell phone (from $1 store!) to a girl named Mallsy. I've never heard this name before, so I'm guessing it is a made-up friend. She also sometimes mentions a girl named Jana, which I know nothing of, other than the fact that she is friends with Mallsy. Oh, the fun!

Today, we also were getting back into the car from the grocery store and she was having a somewhat quiet conversation with herself and at the end she said, "Dex Knows." Ha ha...I thought that was pretty funny. So, with her interest in pretending I decided we should make some scary masks, which she loved (thanks for the idea Debbie). Camden just learned how to say "roooarrrr"...so it's fun to have a sound to go along with the mask & it will be perfect for his Halloween costume (the roar that is). I love how Maddie is sort of peering over top of the mask in the picture, in kinda a creepy way :)


Also, it hailed the other day! Crazy...I had to get a pic of it. There would have been more, but they kept bouncing out of my bowl!

I know exactly what you mean about girls making names up. Maelie does it all the time. When we asked her what we should name our baby, before we had him, she came up with some really weird ones and she really liked them!

That's so great that Maddie will play so well by herself imagining things. I love the "Dex knows" comment, too. Elizabeth for some reason really likes to imagine that there are "red snakes" on the ground we have to run from. I think this comes from Joe's snake game on his cell phone :).

Mallsy? Maybe her next friend will be named Palsey! Haha, now that would make me proud:) I can't believe you guys got hail. We've had some bad weather here lately, but not that bad thank goodness.

Maybe she got the name from frequent mall trips? haha. Kaylee makes up the most nonsensical (is that a word) names. She'll start with a normal name, like Abigail (which i still am not sure where she got that one from) and then sort of slur the ending, so it turns into Abidush. And that is what she will name something.

I am guilty as charged...it most likely is from our mall trips, I just didn't want to believe it to be true :(
