Words of Wisdom

said by Laura as I'm showering this morning: "Oh no! Darf Vador is gonna get you! Wunnnnnn!" (actually if Darth Vador saw me in the shower he'd be the one running, hahahaha!)

A conversation with Laura today:
Laura: Free (as in three) times a day.
Me: What is 3 times a day?
Laura: Spankins!
Me: Spankings 3 times day? Why?
Laura: I need spankins free times a day!
Me: Will that help you not have so many screaming fits.
Laura: Yeah. Okay I go play now mommy.
Hmmmmm.........wonder if I should try it. It was her idea afterall. LOL! Just kidding of course.

A conversation with Katelyn last night:
Katelyn: Tomorrow is my school carnival.
Me: Yeah that's fine. We're not going.
Katelyn: But my teacher says we have to go to the carnival.
Me: Oh so the teacher over rides anything mommy and daddy says.
Katelyn: Yes! Cause she's the teacher. You're just the mommy and daddy.
Hmmmmm......think I'm going to have to talk to her teacher about that one.

I love my girls and their way of thinking. It makes me smile each day. :)

Keeping up with Laura

Here's my baby with her package of "diapers".
Taking a bath in the bucket and getting water all over the floor.
Mommy just said "wash your face." She didn't say it had to be in the tub only. hahaha!

Posing in my hat after seeing pictures of Kim's gorgeous girls.

Temper tantrums while standing on my head.
Jumping on Katelyn's back and pulling her pig tails.
Stealing mommy's camera and taking 50 pictures of sissy waving.
Eating Elmo cupcakes and getting my face dirty.
Wearing my Child of God hat when mommy goes to vote.

Yes folks that's my life in a nutshell. Gotta keep these parents of mine on their toes ya know.

Until next time......I'll try and stay out of trouble.
