Our Five Ring Circus: Tuesday Tidbits

Tuesday Tidbits

It's my day to remember all the cute and funny things my kiddos say and do!

*Dylan kissed the palm of my hand last night, and then closed my fingers. He told me, "Make sure you don't lose it!"

*While attempting to get an eyelash out of Lexie's eye, Lexie yelled at me. "Quit trying to pick my eyeball!"

*Dylan was examining a blank notebook on my dresser, and asked me why there weren't any words or pictures. He kindly offered a solution. "Use your imagination and fill it up with pictures!"

*A frequent phrase that Lexie likes to say: "Dylan, you're making me CRAZY!"

*Dylan is always eager to go to the bus stop in the morning. After brushing his teeth, he puts on his backpack, and impatiently waits on the couch until it's time to go.

*Lexie has WAY too much energy in the morning. At 8 AM this morning, she ran laps around the house for 5 minutes. Then climbed the floor lamp.

*Lexie told me the other day, "You and Daddy are the police of us!"

*Lexie's favorite thing to say when she's frustrated or disappointed is, "Tartar sauce!" She sounds so cute when she says it! Can you tell she has an older brother who loves Spongebob?

*I told Dylan that I had to get out to the living room to watch House. He asked me, "Is that the show with all the beautiful houses or all the doctors?"

*Lexie loves pink Nesquik. Whenever I get it out, she asks, "Can I have a little dip of my finger?"

*Dylan and Lexie's favorite tub game is Waves Go! The point of this game is to splash as much water out of the tub as they possibly can by sliding around or jumping. I love it.

*The other day, Lexie shouted, "It's not about you, Mom!!!" I didn't think she was supposed to say that until she was a teenager?!?

*On Saturday morning, Lexie climbed onto our bed and quizzed us on birthday dates. After going through a long list of people, her brain grew tired, and her words became jumbled. "What day is Cosette's birthday? What starts with Baby Phat's birthday? What is Daby's birthday about?"

And that, my friends, is the zoo I live in!

  3. Cute! My 4 year old says "The world isn't about just you mommy." LOL. I guess she's heard that phrase once or twice.

    I love that you love the water mess in the bathroom. I often pull the curtain closed so the splash zone is limited ;)

  6. "Make sure you don't lose it." Adorable. When he's 15, open your hand back up and show him it's still there :)

  14. It cracks me up that you are the police. apparently mommy and daddy aren't reason enough to listen; the threat of getting arrested is what does it for them. Ha, ha!
