Back to Blogging

I've had BLOG on  my to do list every week for months...it hasn't happened until now though. Most of it was just other things took priority but then some of it was I just didn't feel like it. The last several months have been much about waiting. Waiting to hear if we were going to get a new job, waiting to hear if we're going to move, waiting to hear if we're going to get a different job, deciding if that job was right, etc.. I'm not good at waiting, sometimes I feel like I've been waiting since we moved here.

So, I'm doing my best to not just put BLOG on the list but to actually try my best to keep up...here's some funnies from the past few months or so.

Discussed the sinking of the titanic at dinner yesterday which was much a much improved conversation topic because at breakfast we discussed where throw up comes from. Yeah.
Lily was telling us that "like 2000 people died"
Harper, "Yeah, all those people got up ate up by the sharks"
Lacy, "Harper, the didn't get eaten up by sharks. They died because the water was so cold and they got a really bad brainfreeze"

Lily had a new friend at school, new to the district this year. She talks about her non stop so because I'm a nosy Mom and need to see who my kid is hanging out with we invited her over.
Me, "Where did _____ move from?"
Lily, " Mexico"
Me, "Really, are you sure?"
Lily, "Yeah, you know that river between America and Mexico? She swam over it"
Me, "Really, are you sure?"
Lily, "Yeah, seriously Mom"
Me, Whats ______ last name?"
Lily, "Ummmm...I think it's Mi Amigo or something like that"

Harper & Haley wanted to know what would happen if you try to paint a lions nails? What about a fox's nails?

Haley says, "I like zebras. They don't hit people. They just like to snuggle with people" I asked when she had snuggled with a zebra and she yells, "OH YES, AT THE ZOO?"

Haley confiscated Lacy's sparkly purse one morning, after Lacy left for school. She had it on and was ready to go to school. I asked her, "Isn't that Lacy's purse?"  Haley says, "Not anymore. She wasn't taking good care of it so I took it. Isn't it just so pretty?"

Haley walks in the bathroom the other day while I'm changing and yells, "WOW, YOU LOOK JUST LIKE A COW" Great for a mother of 4's self esteem!

Caught Harper telling Haley, "we can go potty at the same time. Just put your booty right here on the potty next to mine" I shut that idea down pretty quick.

Harper & I were on our way to pick up Haley from her first day of preschool, I asked Harper "Did you miss your buddy this morning?"  Her answer, "No I liked it"

Harper got two free meal coupons to Rain Forest Café from her school, she said, "I guess just me & Daddy get to go. Too bad for everybody else"

Haley is an Ariel the mermaid addict so of course I got her a sparkly Ariel mermaid backpack for preschool. First thing she did was unzip it, sticks her head in and says, "it even smells like Ariel!!
