Ahhh Kids!

I seem to always be behind, which I hate to admit is the story of my life...always LATE! But better late than never I say. :) I really do try...I really do. With that said I will be posting pics from Halloween soon, hopefully before the next one. Ha-Ha! Until then, I wanted to write a quick post about my lovely children.

I love hearing and reading about funny things kids say (and do). I keep telling myself I should write it all down so I don't forget. So that is what I am going to try and do.

For example: There are some days where my girls will just get into anything and everything, like today. Every time I'd turn around it was something else; like very finely cut jelly beans and cookies on tea-party plates all over the top bunk (Rule Broken: "Food and Drink in the kitchen only"); like every single toy, book and dress-up strewn about the house (Rule Broken: "When you're done playing with something, put it away before getting out something else."); like puddles of water everywhere and wondering where it came from, only to find out that they decided to make potion with all their water-color paints (Rule Broken: "Please ask first to paint before doing it."); and like taking a book of stamps and thinking they're stickers and sticking them all over the musical chair (Rule Broken: "Do not get into my things! You have yours and I have mine.")

Then you add in some sister on sister hand slapping and kicking, yelling, crying, and dare I say...ATTITUDE; like when I told Alexa if she didn't stop the fit she was throwing I was going to call Santa and tell him not to come. Her reply (with her hands on her hips, butt sticking out a bit, head tipped to the side...you know the stance): "You don't even know his phone number!" My thought before laughing: "Oh no you di-int!"

Put it all together and what do you get?..."To hell (yes that's right) with this! Let's get out of the house and go ride the merry-go-round at the mall and have dinner with the Caton's. Much more fun...yes, much more fun.
