Harper with a handful

Harper likes to get to the very bottom of her yogurt by using her hands as a scoop so since she was covered in yogurt, I had taken off her clothes and she was running around in her diaper. Girls were upstairs playing while I cleaned up and Harper comes up to me in the kitchen with her hand up to me which I then noticed was full of poop.
Me, "Oh Harper,did you touch anything"
Harper, "My poop"
Yeah, I see that...

Silly Lily

Conversation with Lily today...
Lily, "Today is Elle (her friend) and Marting Luther Kings Birthday"
Me, "Really, who is Martin Luther King"
Lily, "He made the law and some dreams"
Me, "Ummm...kind of. He helped make laws that say everyone, no matter what the color of their skin, they get treated the same as everyone else"
At this point she just kind of stares at me like I don't know what I'm talking about, unfortunately, these looks will continue to get more frequent the older she gets.

Scabby!

I know, I know I'm behind. I have no excuses except Christmas, broke my foot, traveling, Mom & Dad here and you know, those 4 little girls of ours! I will catch up, hopefully this week but had to get this down before it slipped my mind.
When we were down in LJ, Lacy noticed a picture of a food pyramid on Mammy's fridge, we explained when she asked that it helps you learn what foods you should eat. She then said we should get Lily one since Lily doesn't eat her fruit & veggies. So, Lily again didn't eat much of her dinner and Lacy was still chomping away while I cleaned up.
Me, "Lacy, I love how you are such a great eater"
Lacy, "Not like Lily, we should get her one of those fruit calendars"
Me, "A fruit calendar?"
Lacy, "You know, like Mammy's fruit calendar"
Me, "Oh, the food pyramid"
Lacy, "Yeah cause I'm going to grow up big and strong and Lily's going to be SCABBY"
If you don't know, Lily is a horrible picker of mosquito bites and any boo boos she has access to & we're constantly on her about picking, not picking, leave her scabs alone but apparently, this is because she doesn't eat a proper diet!
