Apparently, she is #1...

A video of our family at dinner would probably be appalling to most. No one seems to be able to sit in their chair the entire time, a spoon might fly across the table, chewing with mouths open, random gas being passed (thanks, Lauren). Let's not forget a drink being spilled, the need to show an adult the piece of meat that can't be chewed and swallowed...you get the picture.

Last night, typical scene. Lauren has taken to telling Erin she's a bad girl. Now of course, that's not nice, and we tell Lauren to stop, but Erin seems to be able to take care of this herself. She stands on her chair and starts yelling at Lauren, "I AM NOT A BAD GIRL! I'M A GOOD GIRL!" While this is common, last night she followed this with, "I'M #1!" complete with index finger sticking up in the air. Eric and I have always been weak with laughing when we should be holding it in and correcting someone, so we just lost it laughing...of course, the wrong thing to do to a 2 1/2 year old. She had an audience, and she was going to keep their attention...too funny.
