Our Five Ring Circus: Tuesday Tidbits

Tuesday Tidbits

Tuesday is my day to remember all the cute and funny things my kids say and do!

{Dylan}

*We told Dylan that he would start getting an allowance once he turned 7. He insisted that he had to start his chores today, because a week was too long to wait!

*He is so responsible. As we were eating dinner tonight, he said, "I'm going to eat, then dry the dishes, then make my lunch, then shower, then pick my clothes for school, then do homework, then read, then go to bed." I should mention, this was after he thoroughly cleaned his room without even being asked.

*His favorite song is Pumped Up Kicks. He sings, "All the nother kids with the pumped up kicks..."

*He is a great big brother. He loves his baby sisters. As soon as Lily cries, he runs to help her.

*He was off school yesterday, but Lexie had preschool. As we dropped her off at her classroom door, he hugged her, kissed her, slapped her five, and said, "I love you, Lexie. Have a great day!"

*This is his last week as a 6 year old. The next time I write this post? He will be 7. *sob*

{Lexie}

*Upon seeing her rotten pumpkin on the front porch, she declared, "My pumpkin is serious dead out there!

*She calls running on the treadmill "treadmilling."

*While watching A Baby Story, she asked, "Was I in your belly like Lily was?" "Was Dylan?" "Was Daddy in your belly too?" Hmmm...time to explain that one!

*She really likes weird things! She found a drawer full of New Orleans souvenirs we've received, and claimed them as her own.

*Lexie: "Did you see that kitting?" Me: "What's that?" Lexie: "A little baby cat!"

Photobucket

*Lexie: "Do you want some turds?" Me: "WHAT?!?" Lexie: "Turds. They're delicious!" And then she handed me a box of purple nerds.

{Lily}

*This picture sums up her personality:

*Her new trick is peeing out the front of her diaper. Awesome.

*She is constantly chewing on things!

*She learned how to blow raspberries and thinks it's the funniest thing ever!

*Today, she learned how to squeal!

*She is the happiest, smiley baby! (And she slept 14 hours last night!!!) She is so squeezable!

  12. Turds! HA, love it.
    Dylan is goal oriented for sure, that will get him far in life! I wish D would clean his room without being asked. Maybe Dylan could teach him that?! Little Lily, so sweet. Love them all!
