We have a family tradition going back to my childhood of giving family members a “Good Game,” you know…how athletes are always patting each other on the butt and saying “Good Game.” Except at our house it’s not about the act the person is actually performing but more about the element of surprise. Emma loves to give me a “Good Game” as I unload the dishwasher, fill the tub up with water, or as I bend over to pull clothes out of the dryer. The “Good Game” MUST come out of the blue and be totally random to actually be funny. (And it always is…funny that is.)
This afternoon Aubrey (5), Emma (3) and myself were laying in the floor watching Sadie (7 months) crawl. We would place toys just out of her reach and watch her crawl army-style on her belly to reach her prize. I realized her diaper was soaking wet and sent my little helpers to gather a diaper and wipes for me. As I was changing Sadie’s diaper, she flipped over to her belly and quick as a flash, Emma popped her naked booty and cackled, “GOOD GAME, BABY SADIE!”

So cute! Charlie crawls army style too and apparently has no interest in going full crawl on me. And Savannnah is a big ole fan of the toy just out of reach game – it goes something like this: she snatches his paci out of his mouth and then grabs his toy, moves across the room and says sweet as pie, "Ok, Charlie-bear, now, crawl over here to your toy and you can have your paci" and then she just moves around the room, never making good on her promise. Terrible!

Thanks! And Paige, that's so funny. I love how toddlers never make good on their promises but NEVER forget one we make to them!
