Grandma had the kids come over today to go swimming. On the way over we drove through McDonalds for Happy Meals for them. Caleb got a Tony Hawke? (skateboard dude?) toy and Dakota got some girl doll. The little doll is wearing high heals, faux fur coat, long, flowing blond hair (don't know what type of doll it is, lol.)

Anyways as we're leaving, Dakota's holding her little doll out and said, "Look mommy, isn't she cold?" Darren and I looked at each other, wondering what the heck that meant. We were driving down the street when I looked back at Darren and went, "cool!" Hehe, so now she has a new "cold" doll. Both Darren and I giggled all the way to moms house.

I have one....although she's 18 now.

I would do the old..."This little piggie goes to market" thing quite frequently. My youngest daughter popped her little foot in my lap one day and said "Do This Little Piggy goes to K-Mart".

Today Sis and I took the kids to the park for a picnic. Our newest sil decided to bring her boys too, so all the kids were there to play.

At one point, my youngest nephew (3 and a half) comes running up to me saying, "look, aunt Sandy, water balloons!" I told him to take the balloons (which had already been popped) and throw them away because he didn't know where they'd been. He turns around and eagerly points to where he'd been playing and said, "Uh huh, I got them from over there."

While we were sitting down to lunch today, my daughter age 5 started talking about weddings and told us that we could "come" to her wedding if we wanted. DH said "I didn't know you were getting married" the we proceed to discuss the "giving the bride away/walking her down the aisle. So we said that we would have to be there to do this for her. Then she says "Why, cause I don't know where it is?"

Scotty called me the worst name in the book yesterday.

We were getting ready to run an errand, and of course he's at the door, while I'm getting my keys and making sure I have everything I need.

And like every other time we leave, he's saying, "C'mon, Mom."
"MOM, Come ONNNNN."
"Alright, alright, Scotty, let me put on my shoes, sheesh!"
And then, he says it.

"C'mon, ya Democrat!"

He must have picked it up from some conversations us grown-ups have, or from the news or something. But I have no idea how he thought to use "democrat" in that way!!

His grandpa is going to be so proud!

Another one of "Scotty's Pearls" today.

I wasn't sure whether to post this here, or in Kids TV Shows, or the Bragging Parents thread!

(a little backstory) If you've read the Kids TV Shows thread, we've been talking about what shows are good/bad, and what we let our kids watch. I'm a little more lenient with Scotty, but he gets in a good mix of educational TV with just silliness.

Today, we were watching Spongebob on Nicktoons, when he gave me this "pearl".

"Ya know what, Mom? I wish Spongebob was a little more educational."

Yep! That's my smart little guy!

Now, if I could just get him to stop talking about butts and throwing balls in the house...

Just got back from a week with the family (DH's side) up at my grandma's cottages.
My 3-yr old niece Melissa is a hoot! I wish I could remember all the things she said that cracked me up - but here's one:

My MIL, Scotty, niece Kaitie and I were sitting on the bench swing in front of the beach watching Melissa play in the sand.
She gets up and announces to us, "If I like you, put your thumbs up!"
So, we all put our thumbs up.
"I don't like you today, put your thumbs down. But, I'll like you tomorrow."

At dinner, I asked her if she liked me yet so I could put my thumbs up. She said, "Nope."
So, I put my thumbs down, and asked, "Do you like me a little bit?"
She appeared to think hard for a few seconds, and then said, "Yep. I like you a little bit."
So, I put one thumb down and one thumb up, and she said, "Not that much!"

We just had someone steal all of our flags (about thirty) from our front yard. When the cop was over taking the report - my six year old son told him it was probably either commies or those d@&! democrats.

Can I ask....what kind of flags? How do you display 30 flags??? (sounds like so many, I think I'm missing something! LOL)

They were just the kind of Flags that you get a Target or Walmart (not expensive -- maybe $3 each). We lined fifteen up each side of the walk way to our front door and around the yard Then of course we have our bigger flag hanging off the house and our POW/MIA flag (thankfully no one bothered either of those). We also have a flag made of lights in our front window and a flag on our door with one blue star (got from the American Legion - one star for each family member on active duty.) My brother just got home from Iraq -- and most likely will be heading to Afghanstan at the beginning of 05 -- so we are a very patriotic bunch!

Oh my...It's about time for "THE TALK" w/ my son. I was not feeling well yesterday, had cramps and was relaxing out on our hammock. DS came out and wanted to join me, so I just asked him to be careful not to ram into my tummy as I had a tummy ache. He asked why, and I said it was "girl thing." He asked what it was called. I said "a period." He asked why it was called that. I explained it happened periodically -- once a month to be exact. His response...."So you get a tummy ache once a month??" For whatever reason, that cracked me up. We had a bit more talk to get things explained a bit more, but I still giggle when I think of him imagining all girls getting tummy aches once a month!

LOL Teach, I stopped taking Kota with me to the store to buy Kotex when she asked me, standing in line, how come I bought diapers every month and we didn't have a baby. The guy behind us got a giggle at least. I'm all for talks like that but not when I'm standing in line at Walmart!

The other day I took DD with me to buy some new clothes for mommy-big mistake. There I was looking at the wall of jeans trying to decide which pair to try on when DD proclaims "Mom,your not really thinking of buying these are you?"
I said "Well, yeah...why not?" (my bad) she then said very loudly of course "These all say low rise or hipster, your tummy and hips will hang out too much"
Thanks kid...love ya!

Danas....I completely understand the patriotism! My brother served in the first Gulf War, and I've got so many students over there, it's painful to watch any news. I'd love to see a pix of the front of your house.

Well, all this talk about pads, has tempted me to share this story. My daughter asked about my pads and since she was only 4 I told her they were for bleeding, that it didn't hurt but only grown up women have it. Well, she accepted that and I thought I was off the hook for a couple of years.

Fast forward to a couple of weeks later when I see my youngest son in the yard with a pad on his arm. You guessed it, he got a scratch and his big sister knew just were to find something for bleeding! ROFL!

I was helping my dd in a restroom yesterday. She had just finished doing #2 on the toilet. So she gets off, I get the toilet paper to wipe, tell her to "bend over" (which is the usual routine for this) and she goes "what touch my my toes" where do these kids come up with these things?

For my sons 6th b-day the only thing he wanted was Buzz Lightyear underwear (boy, do i have him trained!). So I bought him 10 pair of the "Toy Story" underwear.

Yesterday I took him to daycare. He walked right up to his Daycare Provider, pointed at his shorts and said "I have a Woody in my shorts". I could have died! We both had quite a laugh that Zachary didn't understand..lol
