Funny Monkeys

Funny Monkeys came from Aliyah...this is what she calls her and her sister...the two funny monkeys.
We had planned to have a fun, relaxing Saturday with time at the pool. With that in mind, Aliyah made sure to get Keirah out of her crib this morning...wait, Aliyah get Keirah out of her crib? This happened last night also. It was quite interesting to us since it's not like Aliyah is the biggest five year old in the world by weight or height. Josh asked Aliyah to demonstrate the process to him. Keirah puts her leg up, Aliyah pushes Keirah's foot up which raises Keirah up enough to allow Aliyah to grab her and pull her out of the crib--that's the funny monkeys for you.
On to the pool...we had planned to meet with a few other friends before going and decided to grab a quick bite to eat at McD's. Once everyone arrived, Aliyah began talking to one of the girls. She just shared about everything she could think of usually preceded by the word "actually" or "anyway". We had the entire area entertained. People were laughing at everything she had to say. Funny thing considering everyone was done eating and then when we decided to leave, everyone else got up and left too. Aliyah declared that we were going to have 2 more sisters and name them "Emma" & "Aubri" to which Josh put his head in his hands. She educated us on some special plant watering devices that she had learned about from a commercial. According to her, they water your plants for 99 days. Sounds great to me!
After many laughs at McDonald's thanks to Aliyah's talk show, we headed to the pool. It was a beautiful day and great for working on that "cocoa" color we want. We spent about 4 hours there and then headed out the door. As soon as we reached the parking lot, it started raining. First a little then a LOT, we loved the timing of it since we were finished swimming.
Once we arrived home (not really any rain at home), the funny monkeys fell asleep after their busy & fun day. AAHH!
