Lily: "Mom can we please have the loopdy loops for breakfast?”
translation...Fruit Loops
Caleb: “Hey Lily I pooped a BIG one!”
Lily: “Well congratulations!”
Caleb holding a small bottle of Gatorade,
“When I fro-up, then I fro-up and then I drink this from the magic cup!”
Caleb: “Mom I’m not 3 I’m 5.”
Mom: “Nope, you're 3.”
Caleb: “No!! I’m older! I want to be bigger so I can have a sharp knife and cut my house down!”
….good grief
Lily: “Hey mom, are we having Smashed potatoes for dinner?”
Breakfast time….
Lily: “Can I have some more snow flakes please?”
Mom: “Do you mean frosted flakes?”
Lily: “Yeah."
Lily’s mispronunciation - hanitizer (Hand Sanitizer), Bazert (Dessert)
Caleb’s mispronunciation - wick (lick), willy (Lily), kywee (Kylie), wolly pop (lolly pop) yep...caleb can’t say his L’s
Mom:”Caleb if you jump over that fence you’re gonna be in trouble.”
Caleb: “By who?...The cops?”
Mom:”No, by me."
Lily: “Watch this Dad! Watch me slip up this big noodle!”
After cleaning her hands with a wet rag and then drying them off with a hand towel this is what Lily had to say about them...
Lily: "This rag smells like soap...but this dry one smells like fro-up.”
Lily was rough housing on the couch and after hurting herself said …
“Mom! There’s hard stuff in the soft stuff!”
Translation...cushions = "soft stuff” the couches frame work = “the hard stuff”
Currently we live on an island and the nearest Costco is a 45 minute drive and on our last trip Lily said the following after being in the car only 10 minutes...“Mom can we just fast forward to Costco?!”
Sometimes I too wish we could fast forward car trips, especially the long ones.
Lily: “Sorry Mom, I accidentally did that on purpose.”
Lily: “Hey Mom, grown up movies are either boring or scary, right?”
We were watching only the not too scary parts of The Hobbit and Lily noticed Frodo had no shoes on when checking the mail for Bilbo
Lily: “Why doesn’t he have any shoes?”
Dad:”Cause he has big hairy feet that are tough.”
Lily:”Like you?”
Eric was going to quickly go run an errand for me and before heading out the door stopped to smell his arm pits and Lily who was watching asked…”What do you smell like daddy?”
I had just had a particularly trying day and once Eric got home I headed outside to our small patio with my dinner to be alone…not 3 minutes pass by and Caleb comes out
Caleb:”Mom why are you eating your food outside?”
Mom:”Because I want some peace and quite.”
Caleb:”Okay…I’ll go get my dinner too.” :)
