Full of Beans
Jerri and Jillian (a.k.a. Jilly Beans) came over this afternoon. Beans was having a little reviving nap in her momma's arms when they first got there, but soon she was busy dragging out this toy, those crayons, that book, etc... She got tired of coloring pretty quick but didn't want to pick up the colors that were strewn everywhere, so to get her to do it, we had a race to see who could pick up the fastest. That worked. That time.Later on she'd taken out the Mouse-Trap game and had left it in the middle of the floor so Jerri told her, "Jillian, you need to pick up this game and put it away." Jillian ignored her. Jerri said, "Jillian, you either pick up this game or I'm going to spank you." Jillian is all comfortable and laid back in her PopPop's recliner and says,
"Don't whip me too hard Momma."
That child is gonna go somewhere,,, far.

What do you do, when they'd rather take the punishment?
90% of parenting is trying to bluff our kids into believing we're in charge.
Cute. REAL cute. Good luck with that one!

Dear No-reply blogger?!

What a beautiful little girl and one smart cookie.
LOL! Now that is funny! We too use that bluff with our 2.5 year old. It never works! Ha!
Great captures too!
That's hilarious!
HAHAHAHA! That's awesome!
I never pull off the bluff either. Either I am a CRAPPY liar, or my kids are just seriously over me. I'm guessing its the latter.
Poor Jerri! My Chicklet is like that. She WILL go far. Here's to hoping we can aim them in the right direction!
That is funny! How cute, even if she was in trouble!
Daaaang! Dontcha just hate it when they outsmart us like that! :)
What a cutie, me thinks you will have a 'fun' teen someday. :)
That is way to funny...I can almost hear her saying that in a teasing voice.
Good Luck with that..

Ha! I hate it when it backfires like that... those kids are too smart aren't they?! Have a great weekend!

Have a great weekend, Brenda - see you soon - Kellan
I love that child.
How cute! Never know what is going to come out of their mouths.
Would love to know the rest of the story...what happened next? Is it too hard not to laugh?
I would have had a really hard time NOT laughing! And you are right.....she probably will go far! The pictures are adorable....she is a cutie!
The litte girl is sooo sweet! You are such a nice grandma!
Something tells me she's heard that one before... and knows the strength of her own charm. What a hoot!
Oh that's too cute! I bet it was all you guys could do to not laugh!!
It's psychological warfare with the kids, and unfortunately I'm usually on the losing end!!
Hah, I see a great future for this girl :-)
Adorable pics, I love how the sun is shining off of her hair.
Oh that is too funny, She is going to give them a run for their money huh? Cute cute cute!
