The Joke's on Granny


So I hid the Oreo's so the kids wouldn't find them and eat them without my knowing.

Around 2:30 Venice hands me a note:  It says "Where are the Oreo's.  I Repeat. Where are the Oreos.  So I laugh and say I hid them.  So Casey and Venice go to the kitchen and I watch them hunt and hunt.  I write back on the note one word - HIGHER.  I could tell they weren't really looking in the right place.  So now they look higher and still can't find them, although they are actually looking where I hid them.  So I go to the cupboard where they are and I CAN'T FIND THEM.  I then begin to doubt where I had put them and now I am looking in the kitchen.  Then they tell me...They found them much earlier and they have been eating them.  I go to the playroom and still can't find them, but they tell me that Teiya and Xander have hidden them. I find them....and we all laugh and laugh...especially me...but Casey and Venice really enjoyed their trick.

love,
the hunter

Measurements


Yesterday was the semi-annual semi-accurate measuring of height day.

Venice is 56" - she grew 1 1/4 inches since January
Casey is almost 56" (I call it 56)...he and Venice are almost equal, he is delighted, proud and happy.  He grew 1 3/4 inches

Xander is 50 inches - he grew 1 1/2 inches.  He is slightly taller than Casey was when Casey was 7 1/2.  So Xander is very proud.

Teiya tried several times to stand on her tippy toes....I caught her each time.  She was laughing as she did this.  She is 47 3/4 inches.  Almost 4 feet tall....She grew 1 inch.
