Silly Sayings

Halloween

2011-11-03T08:47:00.001-07:00

Me: Hey, Eli. Kiah and Anna are going to be fairies for Halloween, what do you want to be?
Eli: A boy fairy!
Me: A boy fairy? (I was a bit shocked because it was such a departure from Spiderman... not to mention I was trying to figure out what it meant to be a boy fairy)
Eli: Gotcha. I want to be Spiderman (with a tone in his voice like there was no other option)

Are you my Buddy?

2011-09-29T08:41:00.001-07:00

Luna: Seth is in your class again this year?
Eli: yes
Luna: Is he your buddy?
Eli: No, Seth is my friend. Jacob is my buddy.

You're Funny

2011-09-17T09:49:00.000-07:00

Eli is one of the most ticklish kids I know. He gets it from Chris. Chris says he was even worse than Eli as a kid. One day as I was lying down with Eli to make sure he would fall asleep for his nap. As we were lying there I somehow accidentally tickled him. He giggled.

Me: you are the most ticklish boy I know.
Eli: I'm not ticklish
Me: You're not?
Eli: No. You and Daddy are just really funny.

As I proceeded to tickle him more he continued to tell me how funny I was and laugh hysterically.

looks like...

2011-09-12T15:05:00.000-07:00

I heard Eli calling for me from the bathroom.

Eli: I don't have toilet paper.
I got some out for him
Me: Are you done with your log? (he had stood-up to get the tp and had left a a hefty product in the toilet. I wanted to make sure he was done before he started bouncing around the room)
Eli: What log?
Me: Look in the toilet.
Eli: It's not a log. It looks like ...uh...poop.

Too Big

2011-09-06T11:01:00.000-07:00

We have been potty training Anna. One day while Chris, Kiah, and Eli were at school I took Anna to the Park. As we got home she wanted me to push her on the swings in our backyard.

Me: Not right now. Mommy needs to go potty.
Annalise: You to o big. It Anna Potty, not Mommy Potty.
Me: you are right. Mommy has to go to the bathroom. Anna can go on the potty.

Your Car is running

2011-08-15T10:22:00.000-07:00

Chris needed a new battery in his car and Eli wanted to help him. Chris decided to have the battery tested first.

The mechanic opened the hood of the car to test the battery. Chris and Eli were standing right there.

Eli: Can I watch?

Mechanic: Do you have eyes?

Eli: Yes.

Mechanic: then you can watch.

It was determined that the battery needed to be replaced.

Eli: why does your car need a battery?

Chris: to help it run.

Eli: your car can't run, it doesn't have any legs.

Put a cork in it!

2011-08-08T12:18:00.000-07:00

One night at the Dinner table:

Eli: Excuse me, I burped. (immediately after the announcement he passed some gas)

Luna: I think it came out the wrong end.

Eli: No, that was a toot. My teacher says I have to call it a toot.

A few days later:

Eli had gas. It was rather stinky.

Luna: Should I put a cork in your tooter?

Eli: No! I would explode!

Daddy

2011-08-08T11:59:00.000-07:00

Luna: Do you want to be a daddy someday?
Eli: Yes
Luna: How many Babies are you going to have?
Eli: two
Luna: Boys or girls?
Eli: Boys
Luna: What are their names going to be?
Eli: One is Eli. The other is Rock, like Rock music!

Toot Toot!

2011-08-07T15:08:00.000-07:00

I was reminded tonight of something Kiah used to say!

A long time ago, Kiah must have been 2 or 3. Kiah was in the bathroom, trying to make use of the facilities. She had been in there awhile, so I went to check on her.

Luna: Did you go poop?
Kiah: No, I just parted.

This is my Lucky Day

2011-06-08T08:23:00.000-07:00

We had decided to borrow a few movies from the library. When we got home the kids wanted to watch one. They agree upon Nickelodeon The First Day of School.

Eli had this to say: "I haven't seen this in years! This is my lucky Day!!"
I love that a 4 year hadn't seen something in years! Actually, he had never seen it.

Cutest Girl

2011-05-25T10:21:00.000-07:00

This morning I was helping Kiah get dressed for her last day of first grade. I don't normally allow her to wear dresses. Mainly because I hate the idea of her panties showing. But since today was a half day and they wouldn't have lunch or recess, I went ahead and let her.

Kiah had been lamenting for the last week that she didn't want to go to school on the last day because all they were going to do was worksheets. I found that hard to believe. I knew her teacher, Mrs.Teale, would not have a day full of worksheets, especially the last day. And doubly so, since she is moving and will never see these students anymore. I kept telling Kiah she needed to go because she had already been absent from school a lot and she shouldn't worry because she would have fun. The dress was also to help pump her up for the day. After she got her dress on I told her she was "the cutest girl in first grade." She smiled and went to school.

When I picked her up from school I gave Mrs. Teale a hug. She really is one of the best teachers I have ever met! I am so sad Eli and Annalise won't be able to have her as a teacher. Mrs. Teale told me one last story about Kiah for the year. Apparently while Kiah was at school she spoke with Mrs. Douglas, the assistant teacher in her classroom.

Kiah: My mom said I am the cutest girl in the first grade
Mrs. Douglas: You are one of them.
Kiah: Who's the other one?

It isn't nice to Point!

2011-03-11T17:33:00.001-08:00

Kiah: (to Chris) you are bald.
Chris: I know. Kiah, it isn't very nice to point that out about people.
Kiah: I wasn't pointing!

Like mother Like Son

2011-03-11T17:32:00.001-08:00

We were all in the van driving somewhere.

Kiah: Where are we going?

Eli: Crazy

Mock Pecan Pie

2011-02-13T19:11:00.000-08:00

At a recent progressive dinner I was asked to provide dessert. I had been wanting to make a Mock Pecan Pie recipe I found. So I did. it used pinto beans instead of pecans. So the day before I cooked the beans and made the crust. But the day of the event I had a meeting right before the dinner, so I had Chris make the pie. I mentioned to him that he would need to measure out the beans and make the filling. Apparently he didn't hear me because he used all the beans. Probably at least double what it should have been. The pie tasted fine, it was just a bit dry. In the car on the way home we had this conversation

Luna: So the pie was pretty good, don't you think?
Chris: I didn't try any.
Luna: Why not? You have to try at least a bite when we get home.
Chris: I don't like pecan pie.
Luna: I am surprised by that, since you like German Chocolate Cake.
Chris: I don't like pie....except pumpkin, and chocolate.
   ....and coconut
   ....and key lime
   ....and banana cream
By this point I was laughing so hard!

Siblings

2011-02-12T10:33:00.000-08:00

Kiah: Are we ever going to have another baby?
Luna: I don't know. Do you want to have another baby?
Kiah: yes
Luna: Do you want a brother or a sister? Or a puppy?
Kiah: which one do you think I should pick?
Luna: I don't know which one you want.
Kiah: I don't know, this is hard.
Luna: go ask your dad.
(I mean, I shouldn't be the only one to enjoy these funny little conversations)
Kiah comes back.
Kiah: in her best pouty voice He said a brother..... or a sister. I really wanted a puppy.

Drug Allergies

2011-02-08T12:21:00.000-08:00

Quite some time ago a house a few blocks from us blew-up. Some people (grown children of the home owner) were trying to cook some meth and, well, they did it wrong and ka-boom! I actually remember hearing... but it wasn't too loud because it is a little ways away. It really is a sad story.

Anyway, the house still sits in burnt shambles. Every once in awhile we drive past it. The other day Kiah asked what had happened to the house. I began to explain that some people addicted to drugs made some bad choices and caused an explosion. I was trying my best to explain what it means to be addicted to drugs but keep it simple and age appropriate. She seemed to understand and was satisfied with my answer.

About 5 minutes later Kiah asked, "how are they allergic to rugs?" It took me a minute to figure out what she was talking about. Apparently addicted to drugs was not a term in her lexicon. Her little search engine, just like Google, apparently asked "did you mean: allergic to rugs"

Olives

2010-11-15T09:41:00.000-08:00

One morning...

Eli: I want some Olives

Luna: Maybe for lunch, but right now we are having breakfast.

(as a side note, I don't mind none traditional food for breakfast, I don't really like breakfast foods, I just didn't want to open a can of olives at that moment.)

Eli: ok, we can have them for lunch......can I have lunch?

Did you...

2010-08-19T09:58:00.000-07:00

I was helping Eli get dressed when he farted. In my attempt to get him to excuse himself this is the conversation we had.

Luna: Did you fart?
Eli: No, the bubble in my butt popped.

Who was shot?

2010-08-19T09:56:00.001-07:00

I was a little late in picking Kiah up from school today. And because of that she was the last one from her class to be picked-up. So she talked with her teacher. I pulled into the lot where we part to pick-up our kids and her teacher kindly walked her across the street to meet me.

Teacher: Kiah was telling me that someone named Joseph got shot.
(I thought... well I am sure there have been lots of people named Joseph that have been shot... who was Kiah thinking of? For some reason Joseph from the Old Testament popped in my mind, but he wasn't shot! Then it clicked... She is talking about our trip to Carthage!)
Luna: oh yeah.... in the 1800's. No need to call social services or the police. We took a trip to Nauvoo and she apparently remembers some of the History lesson.
Teacher: I was trying to figure it out. I didn't know i it was a family member. She said it happened one state over.

I guess I am now in that stage of more understanding and developing communication skills.

Want an apple?

2010-08-05T07:47:00.000-07:00

That is what Eli just asked me. He knew full well I didn't want an apple, but he asked me anyway. Because he knew he could get what he wanted (an apple) by manipulating the situation by asking me if I wanted an apple.

Eli: Mommy, do you want an apple?
Luna: No
Eli: Than I will get an apple for me (in a tone indicating offense at my declination of the offer)

Ways to get clean: Baptism and hand sanitizer

2010-06-08T13:20:00.000-07:00

Kiah says:

Bathtized. (I guess it is not too far off.)

Hanitizer

Eye Twitch

2010-05-07T08:46:00.000-07:00

Chris has been fighting a cold. Last night he wasn't feeling so great and he took some cold medicine. Later that evening I found him by the computer. I asked him some question I no longer remember. When he turned to answer he had one eye tightly shut.

Luna: What's up eagle-eye?

Chris: Your beauty is so great I can only stand to look at you with one eye.

Apparently his eye had been twitching so much he got annoyed and decided to close it!

It's Healthy

2010-01-04T12:01:00.001-08:00

Kiah: Root Beer is healthy for you.
Luna: It is? How?
Kiah: It has carrots in it and carrots are healthy for you

Pancake in my Pocket

2009-12-04T09:34:00.001-08:00

Eli came to me and kept repeating the same thing over and over. I was having a hard time figuring out what he was saying. SO I told him to show me. Little did I expect him to show me what I thought he was saying. He had Pancakes in his pocket. They were little silver dollar frozen pancakes.

Speaking English

2009-11-16T11:08:00.000-08:00

A friend of mine is a Jr high School English teacher.

Liz: I teach English
Kiah: I speak English; uno, dos, tes.

Am I right?

2009-08-08T13:16:00.001-07:00

Today Kiah and I were riding in the car. I don't even remember what we were talking about. Kiah made a statement and then said

Kiah: Am I right, or am I right?

I thought this was so fun.

Luna: Where did you learn that?
Kiah: Clifford, the Big Red Dog

Book report

2009-07-20T06:27:00.000-07:00

I know this isn't from one of the kids, but it is still so funny, at least to us.

On Sunday night as we were going to bed Chris and I were lamenting about how awful the night before was and how much we DID NOT want an encore. It was then that Chris told me he had trouble getting back to sleep. I suggested that he should have read a book.

Luna: You should have read a book.
Chris: I did.
Luna: Which book? (I knew what was in the area where he was trying to sleep. They are my books, so I thought it would be a parenting book, or "Shopaholic Ties the Knot." None of the books would have been of much interest to Chris, so I was amused he had to read one of those books.)
Chris: "Color Kittens"

I laughed so hard. I think it was the second hardest I have ever laugh at Chris. The first being before we were married and we were sitting around my apartment with a bunch of roommates and friends talking about a school assignment I had to provide group therapy regarding dating for Young Single Adults. During the wrap-up discussion Chris announced he was "Keen." I know it isn't funny now, but the entire room laughed for quite some time. We have no idea why either.

Well, last night I laughed just as hard. I know many of you are not familiar with "Color Kittens." It is by the same author who wrote the riveting book "Good Night Moon." YES! it is a Golden Book.

Chris: Well, I had never read it before
Luna: What did you think (btw, this half of the conversation was MUCH later and I was still choking back laughter)
Chris: it isn't as good as "Good Night Moon"

Mexican Food

2009-07-10T06:32:00.001-07:00

We decided to go out to dinner last night. As I was trying to figure out where to go I began to ask everyone what they would agree to. Kiah actually said she wanted Mexican food. She REALLY wanted Mexican food, because when we tried to switch to something else she got very upset. She said she wanted some rice and beans. Alright, whatever!

So we got to the restaurant and they brought us some chips and salsa. Kiah put some chips in a small bowl for herself them proceeded to get the salt. The girl LOVES salt, but she over did it this time. I didn't notice until it was too late. When i looked over at her bowl it look like winter in her bowl. All her chips were covered with a salty snowfall.

Luna: That is enough. In fact, it is too much.
Kiah tried a salty chip.
Kiah: I don't like Mexican salt.

Symbols

2009-07-04T06:15:00.000-07:00

Chris and I had gone to the Temple earlier that day and Kiah was asking up what we did at the Temple.

Luna: Well, we wore all white.
Kiah: No, you wore black. (I was wearing a black dress when I left the house)
Luna: You're right, I was wearing black, but I changed my clothes when I got there.
Kiah: Why?
Luna: White is a symbol of being clean, like Heavenly Father, and being good.
Kiah: I have a Symbol, Look!
I turned to see her slam her hands together
Kiah: Crash!

Luna: (laughing) Very good. That is a different Cymbal.

Don't eat it

2009-06-04T08:24:00.000-07:00

As I am helping SweetPea wipe after visiting the potty (Not my favorite mommy Job!)

Kiah: Mom, do you like my poop?
Luna: um..
Kiah: Do you LIKE my poop?
Luna (trying to be encouraging, without grossing myself out at the thought of liking feces): yeah, sure.
Kiah: Don't eat it!

Knock, Knock

2009-04-25T08:21:00.000-07:00

Eli has learned how to tell a joke...kinda. To tell you the truth it is hard to understand just about everything he says. But since he got the tubes in his ears it seems to be improving. I guess there was a smallbinky set back, I think the surgery scared him pretty badly so he wouldn't let go of it for 2 weeks. Now his is afraid of it, I convinced him it is only for sleeping, so he runs in fear now when I offer it.

But he started to tell jokes. I am not sure he realizes it, but it made us laugh and we truly understood all he was saying.

Eli: Knock, Knock
Luna: Who's there?
Eli: (very proudly and excited) ME!

we all started laughing. Mainly because I wasn't expecting an answer. So getting one is where the humor lies.

Here is the best video of it I can get so far. It was like pulling teeth to get this much, I hope to get a better one soon.

A Name?

2009-04-11T08:21:00.000-07:00

On her way into the bathroom

Kiah: what's my poop's name?

Big Family

2009-04-05T11:52:00.000-07:00

Luna: Do you like being a big sister?
Kiah: yes
Luna: How many kids do Mommy and Daddy have?
Kiah: 3, Me, Eli, and Anna
Luna: How many kids should Mommy and Daddy have?
Kiah: 15.....er...17!

REAL food

2009-04-03T20:36:00.000-07:00

Tonight we had tacos for dinner. As i was building my taco I was showing Kiah all the different things I can put inside my taco. I also talked about how you can try new things this way.

Luna: Look at all the different foods Daddy and I like to eat.
Kiah: I don't like different food like you and daddy. I like REAL food. (on her plate was a tortilla which she didn't eat, some baby carrots, and sliced cheddar cheese)

Just a Lick

2009-03-22T18:45:00.000-07:00

Tonight we were moving a few things around in our bedroom and we found a piece of green sidewalk chalk in the shape of an egg. It was probably put there some time ago when it was taken away from a child and "hidden." It is funny enough that we found a chalk Easter egg in our bedroom right before Easter, but Kiah made it even funnier.

Kiah was playing with the egg and Eli was starting to complain because he wanted one too. So Chris decided to take it away. When Chris took it away he saw there was a wet spot. Then he looked at Kiah and saw a green chalky mark on her chin and lower lip.

Chris: Did you bite the chalk?
Kiah: No
Luna: (chuckling) We don't believe you.
Kiah: It was just a lick!

Elephants and Alligators

2009-03-18T15:06:00.000-07:00

The other day we were at the doctor's office, again! The doctor asked Kiah to name an animal that starts with the letter "A." Kiah thought about it for a few seconds and said "Alephant." The doctor laughed and said "I'll take it...this time." Later as we were leaving he told Kiah that Elephant usually starts with the letter "E."

Today I was working on some alphabet worksheets with Kiah. As we were practicing writing the letter "a" I was talking to Kiah about what sound the letter "A" makes.

Luna: Ah-ah-apple
Kiah: Ah-ah-apple
Luna: (pointing to an alligator) what is this?
Kiah: Ah-ah-crocodile

Valentine's Day

2009-02-17T20:51:00.000-08:00

Kiah woke-up on Valentine's day and came into our room and said "Happy Valentine's Day!" She then ran to the window and looked out and said "Where are the hearts on the houses?"

Leaky roof

2009-01-26T20:50:00.000-08:00

My mom took Kiah to the Balcony sliding door to see the rain.

Kiah: (looking out door) what happened?
MeeMaw: It's raining
Kiah: (looks outside, can't see rain falling, but sees water dripping off the roof) It's not raining, the roof is leaking!

Christmas Lights

2008-12-12T20:49:00.000-08:00

As we were driving home one night and Kiah noticed a few houses decorated for Christmas. As we pulled into our driveway Kiah said "Excuse me Mom and Dad, I want lights on my house."

Dancing Partners

2008-12-10T20:48:00.000-08:00

Kiah: I don't have a boy.
Luna: What do you mean?
Kiah: I don't have a boy. Anna has Eli. They can dance.
Chris: Who do I dance with?
(Kiah points to Luna)
Kiah: There's a boy in your tummy. His name is (Luna can't remember the name right now. I will ask Kiah and fill this in later)

So I asked Kiah, and she doesn't remember.
Luna: What's the name of the little boy in Daddy's tummy?
Kiah: I don't know. You tell me!

How do you get someone to smile for the camera?

2008-12-07T20:48:00.000-08:00

Kiah says "Dude, com'on, smile for the camera."

I guess she is a California girl. She says things like this all the time.

Beeper

2008-12-07T20:47:00.000-08:00

Kiah's booster seat for the dinner table made a noise like a bodily function. Of course Chris and I were teasing her to say excuse me. Kiah said "I'm not the beeper!"

Are you cute?

2008-12-01T20:46:00.000-08:00

an exchange between Chris and Kiah

Chris: Are you cute?
Kiah: Yes
Chris: Why are you cute?
Kiah: I'm a girl.
Chris: Are boys cute?
Kiah: No
Chris: What are boys?
Kiah: Anxious

Making Hnad Turkeys

2008-11-20T20:46:00.000-08:00

Today we went to a Thanksgiving party for our Moms' group. Kiah was making a Hand Turkey. You know the kind where you trace your hand and then draw a face and feet on it to make it look like a turkey. Kiah traced her hand on the paper and handed it to me and asked "Mom, will you cut my hand off?"

What time is it?

2008-11-07T20:44:00.000-08:00

a little over a week ago I took Annalise into the Doctor for her reflux. It was a LONG day. I had talked to the nurse the day before, she is so sweet, she called me welll past office hours because she was on her way out of town. She told us to head in to the office for walk in hours, which start at 1 pm. We had to drop MeeMaw off at the airport around noon, then I took the kids to Burger King to get our tummy's full, so we wouldn't be as cranky. Kiah got a watch in kid's meal.

When we got to the office we found out the walk-in hours would start late because the Doctor had gone to early voting and was caught in a line. So things wouldn't start until 2 pm. So we waited. Unfortunately that cuts into nap time, yuck!

After a lot of crying and whining and waiting it was almost time to go. We just had to wait at the front for our referral for Annalise's Barium study. The receptionist saw Kiah's watch and complimented her on it. Then she asked her what time it was. Kiah said "Time to go home!" Everyone in earshot started laughing.

Headache

2008-11-02T20:43:00.000-08:00

Kiah was sick with the flu. I was trying to figure out to what extent her symptoms were.

Luna: "Does your head hurt?"
Kiah: "No, just my brain... in my forehead"

How to get kids to be nice

2008-10-24T20:42:00.000-07:00

Last night Chris made some homemade ice cream and lava cakes. When he was done he went around asking everyone if they wanted any. When he got to Kiah, this is what happened.

Chris: "Do you want some cake and ice cream?"
Kiah: "yes"
Chris: "OK" and he walked back to the kitchen.

Kiah: (to Mommy and MeeMaw) "Dad is getting me cake and ice cream, I will be nice now"

As a note, I am not sure where Kiah got this idea from. We don't use treats or rewards for good behavior. But it made me laugh for awhile.

AS a second note, the next morning the cakes were still on the counter. I was updating out calendar when I heard something behind me. I turned around to find Eli with a face covered in chocolate and a chocolate covered thumb. He is just like little Jack Horner. He samples everything with his thumb!

Candy

2008-10-20T20:42:00.000-07:00

One morning Kiah climbed into bed with me. She saw some candy on my nightstand and asked for it. I told her she might be able to have some later, and the conversation moved to another topic. After awhile this exchange occurred:

Luna: "I like you Kiah."
Kiah: "I like candy"

Dora on the Phone

2008-09-21T20:38:00.000-07:00

So yesterday I heard a story about Kiah. She can be quite imaginative. This leads to a lot of funny discussions. But this one I didn't know about.

Apparently a few weeks ago Kiah was in Sunday School and she reached into her pocket and took out a pretend Cell phone and announced that Dora was on the phone. She began to get up and walk out the door when her teacher ask if she could see the phone. Her teacher spoke with Dora on the phone to let her know that Kiah was at church and could not talk on the phone right now, but Kiah would call her back after church when she got home. Kiah's teacher also let Dora know that no one else will be calling Kiah because she is in church and they know that. Dora promised not to call anymore during church. Kiah's teacher handed back the phone and had Kiah put it back in her pocket. A few minutes later Kiah started to reach for her "phone" again and said that it was ringing. Kiah's teacher said it "it better not be Dora, She promised she wouldn't call during church anymore." Kiah never answered the phone.

Comment:
Kelly - I've heard a few hilarious stories about Micah from Primary teachers and presidency members, all of which are really only funny if he's not your kid!

Naming the baby

2008-07-15T20:44:00.000-07:00

This is from awhile back, but I was just reminded of it.

One day I was making a list of possible names for the baby (I was pregnant with Annalise, but we didn't know the gender yet.)

Kiah: "What are you doing?"
Luna: "Writing down possible names for the baby? What do you think we should name the baby?"
Kiah: after a contemplative pause "Jesus Christ!"
Luna: "I'll write it down, but I don't think we can use it. What is we have a girl, what should her name be."
Kiah: "Kiah!"
Luna: "I think both of those names are taken."

When I went in for my big ultrasound when I was pregnant with Annalise we took the kids. Kiah enjoyed watching it all. Right after the ultrasound we were taken to a room to see the doctor. We had to wait a bit. Kiah decided to act out the ultrasound. First she practiced on me. Then she had me give her an ultrasound. My whole pregnancy Kiah referred to my belly as my "baby tummy." At that appointment, after her "ultrasound" she announced she had a "Doggy Tummy"

Big Booty

2008-06-11T20:39:00.000-07:00

After my birthday we had a bit of cake left so Kiah and I shared it. I was then going to throw out the rest. So Kiah took the last little bits of dried out frosting to munch on and I tossed the rest away. A few minutes later she went to the kitchen and saw that the cake was gone.
Kiah: “Mom, did you eat my cake?”
Me: “Mom and Kiah ate the cake.”
Kiah: “Mom you eat my cake. Your Booty is going to get big… My booty is going to get big”

A few days later I had an appt to go to. So I packed up the kids and headed for the appt. We were waiting for our names to be called. Kiah and Eli were playing, not too wildly, but I wasn’t too worried because there was hardly anyone else there. We were in the front row about 8-10 ft from the front desk. Kiah came and sat down beside me just as a large woman approached the desk to turn in some paperwork.
Kiah: “Why is that mommy giant?”
Me: “All mommies are giant or tall compared to little kids.” (She sometimes uses the word giant instead of tall)
Kiah: “Why is the Mommy’s Booty so giant?”
I really did not know what to say at this point. I wasn’t sure if I could pull off a pirate’s voice well enough to change the booty from a behind into treasure, nor did I think anyone else in the room would buy it. So I then made it my goal to make my kids the perfect kids. (I have found that ladies of the South have no problem talking very loudly about other people’s children with anyone around. We live in “spare the rod spoil the child-ville” So I knew all eyes were on us and everyone had to sit perfectly quiet with hands folded in laps from that point forward.) Luckily we were called back very shortly.

Ants Hole

I was getting ready to give Kiah a bath when she said, "Do I have ants?" and she starts to put her hand in her bum. I am trying to get her to stop putting her hand in her bum. But she keeps asking about the ants. Then she bends over and opens up her butt and asks about the ants, so I finally said... "there are no ants, where are the ants?" her response. "in my hole. My ants hole." I was laughing so hard. I have no idea where she got this. But Chris and I were crying and laughing so hard for so long. I finally composed myself and finished bathing her and got her a new pull up and told her there were no ants. There never will be ants, and not to talk about the ants in her pants anymore

Comment:
Shannon - Oh my gosh I am crying about the ants hole. I think that is sooooo funny. Oh my goodness.

I spilled

I have been gone for so long. It has been crazy. Kiah was up last night puking. She threw-up once last week too. I think it is related to her cold still. At least the one last week was. It seems to be mostly mucus. Last night wasn't, but I still think that is what the problem is. SO I am starting to give her the decongestant that the dr prescribed. Hopefully it helps. She make me laugh though. She said she "spilled" and got "mud" on her bed. lol
