Lily's funnies...

Here's Lily practicing for her preschool Christmas program...

Go tell it on the mountain, Go tell it on them mountain....for Jesus Christ is boring....of course, she thinks she's singing for Jesus Christ is born. Let's hope that she either changes her pronunciation or sings very very quietly.

Lily was eating Froot Loops, identifying their color, asking which color she should eat next. I picked blue...her response.
"No, I don't like the blue. It's too spicy"

Oh, the things they say...and do...

Day started out with me finding plastic giraffes in the fridge..there were two of them so not sure if they girls were starting the Ark or not.

Lily & Lacy were looking through a toy catalogue, pointing out things they wanted Santa to bring. Lacy wanted something, Lily said, "No, that's just for looking at",
Lacy replies, "With my eyes?"
Lily says, "Yes, with your eyes"
Lacy says, "Which eye?"
Lily points to Lacy's left eye and says "That one"...as if Lacy should have known that was the eye for looking

Lily decided to decorate a chair with stickers today and after trying to make her clean up her own mess and take the stickers off herself which made an even bigger mess leaving behind sticky sticker mess, I took over. She sat down on the floor with me and asked if she could watch me clean it up. I said yes and told her I was very upset that she put stickers all over the chair.
Lily says, "Is that because you have a big belly?"
I say, "No, it's because, when you make a mess, it makes more work for Mommy & I have less time to have fun with you"
Lily says, "Because your belly is so big?"
Yeah, I gave up trying to explain at that point...

When Lacy doesn't get a nap....

Lacy hasn't been thrilled with naptimes lately...sometime she'll just play for a little while and then start yelling, "Mom"...."Mom"...."Mom"....and I'll go up there & she'll say, "I'm going downstairs, I'm done with my nap" So, Thursday was one of those days, no nap, Jason's out of town and she's already been in time out for pulling hair & smacking Lily on the head with her beloved puppy and Lacy gets a little mean when she doesn't have her sleep...here's our conversation while sitting on the couch.

"What's in your mouth, Lacy?" Lacy opens mouth and shows me a polished rock, part of the set of polished "gems" Daddy brought back from a trip for her.

"Take it out of your mouth, if you put that in your mouth again, I'll take it away"

5 minutes later..."What's in your mouth, Lacy" Lacy opens mouth and shows me the same rock. I said "It's mine now" and I took the rock...

Lacy gets her mad face on, pokes me in the shoulder and says, "My Daddy gave me that rock!"
