Prayer fun

So, C said a prayer this morning, and it's hard to hear what she says sometimes, but I caught "Tanks for mama, and dada, and prophet, and Christmas (meaning the Grinch DVD), and Bill Nye."

Yes. Yes, you are.

A, out of the middle of nowhere: I'm brave. I'm brave and very, very awesome.

Fighting style

I asked A to get her toy sword & shield. Her response--to stick out her backside and announce "I fight with my BUM!"


I know it's not polite to laugh at your child... but I couldn't help it.

An unusual reveral of roles

A: I think it's time for bed.

Dad: No, I don't want to go to bed.

A: The Office is over; it's time for bed.

Dad, louder: No, it's still light outside! I want to stay up! I don't want to go to bed yet!

A, scowling: You have to go to bed now!!

HAH!

Wednesday fun

A: (To C, as C was using the potty) Remember--always watch out for volcanos.

Also, A keeps telling me she can smell caterpillars. So I ask her what caterpillars smell like and her response is always "...caterpillars." Duh, mom.

Fun on the phone

C has figured out that you *talk* to people on the phone. And how to find previously dialed numbers and redial them. She called her daddy this morning, talked for a while, hung up, and then grabbed the phone & called him again. I told her to stop so as soon as he answered, C yelled into the phone, "GOO-BYE, DADDY! I WUV YOU!" *click*
Lol.

Don't disturb a working 4-year-old.

A (coloring on the recliner, dh and I were talking nearby): You guys are kind of bothering me.

Saturday

A decided her name for the day was "Ally" and that she had "a bat, a gnat, and a rat, and I want a cat but it lives at grandma's house."
Of course, of all of those the one we really do own at our house is... a cat.

Hmmm.

C: I don't like ice cream. I like mushy bananas! They so yucky! And mushy! And GOSS! (And, of course, she hates mushy bananas in real life.)

More morning cuteness

C (to Daddy on the phone): Hey you! Hey you! I so happy! I not sad.

Morning cuteness

C (giving me my glasses): You need get up now, dear! You need get up, dear!

More fun

C: I pretending! (while dressed up as a dancer and spinning around)
C: (while helping me make pancakes) Pa-cakes are yummy! De-yicious! It make my tummy HAPPY! (at the top of her lungs)
A: (after reading a book about a scientist who takes lots of microscope images & uses loupes in his field work, after finding out her grandma has a loupe to let A borrow): And we'll go to the park and dig in the dirt and find bugs and look at them and put them in the microscope!!
A: (also after reading the book) I have a booger. Let's put it in the microscope! (running to the microscope with a booger on her finger)

This morning, while we were wrestling/throwing into a pile of blankets on the bed, A: That was a lovely throw! (Applauds for a minute.)

Morning fun

Started off the day with C bringing me "Mama, Do You Love Me?" & rubbing my cheeks & telling me she loved me & all that cute stuff.

Then A came in for breakfast saying her farm was full. So I asked her what was in her farm. "Horses, dinosaurs, sheep, and a cow."

And I asked her if she wanted to go exchange her dinosaur books for a microscope book at the library today (current interest), and her answer: "A microscope book? YES! A book about SCIENCE!!!!!"

Of course. Heehee.

A again--it's an A day

Getting ready to play a word game, A: I can't do "F." I'm allergic to "F." I can do "H"--I'm not allergic to "H!" And C (sister) is allergic to "G."

A time

A, putting an orange on the coat hooks and a coat on the scratching post: "I want to keep it here because I'm so funny! I'm so silly! I want to be crazy all day!"

Fun with C

C: "Ook at me! Ook at me! I so TUTE! I found pincess dess!" (Translation: "Look at me, look at me. I'm so cute! I found a princess dress!" And then she was running around the room yelling "Howdy, ride 'em cowboy" in her little lisp.)

More sillyiness

A (looking through her microscope): Oh no, the blood!
C (across the room): Oh no, the blood! (being C, it came out "Oh no, da bud!!)

And then A was trying to bargain with me to let her wash the dishes.

Storytime

A said she didn't know a story, so J asked C to tell a story.
C: There was an alligator, and fish, and starfish, and starfish, and starfish, and starfish, and starfish, and starfish, and starfish!

Recent fun times:

C is 2.5 (and speech delayed) and A is 4.5 for reference, lol.

A: I'l love you FOREVER. (Ok, that one wasn't silly. Just so cute.)

C: (squatting on the recliner) I having a baby! ARRRRRRRR (loud grunt/bearing down)

C: I have baby in my arm. (pointing to one arm). And baby in arm (pointing to other arm).

C: I a little tiny princess!

C also signs "wait, wait" when A is asking to share a drink

We have "Rock Monster," a parody of "Rock Lobster," and A will sing "Rock Monster" on cue with the proper note intro over and over and over and over.

Need a place to get out all the silly things my girls say, lol.

So, I never actually keep up blogs, or update family on things, or keep a journal more than sporadically. So who knows if this will stay up, but the girls keep saying such goofy and cute things I wanted to have it down somewhere. So here we are. As such, I doubt this will be of much public interest, LOL, but I want to get this up for me.
