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}

Dylan is growing up so quickly! I miss my boy. Now that he's in school full time, I don't get to spend much time with him.

-While shopping on Sunday, he touched the front of a pair of tight, satiny boxers, and said, "Look! It has a pocket!"

-My little man can be too honest at times. We started giving him a small allowance every week once he turned 7. When I went to give him his allowance one day, he said, "But I haven't done anything to earn it!"

Photobucket

-He is still so sweet. He loves it when I leave a little "love" note in his lunchbox. Yesterday, I took the note out after school, and started to throw it away. He snatched it out of my hand, and said, "I want to keep that!"

-When he was little, he called Cool Whip "Cool Mip." Even though he can say Cool Whip, he still lovingly refers to it as Cool Mip.

-He calls his baby sister Lilla. As soon as he gets home from school, he runs to see if she's awake!

{LEXIE}

Lexie continues to be our comic relief! She's a great combination of sweet and sassy with (quite) a bit of drama mixed in.

-Her body wash had a picture of a smurf on it. She asked me, "Will this body wash make me smell like a smurf?!?"

-In one of her uber-sweet moments, she gushed, "I love EVERYBODY IN THE WORLD!" She always says, "I love Mommy! She is my best friend!"

-She put on a sweater she hadn't worn in a long time. She asked, "Is this a sweater with love in every stitch?"

-She calls the hallway the "holeway."

-One night at dinner, she turned to me and asked, "Are you going to have another baby girl?"

-Lily has some messy diapers. One day, she had a blowout, and Lexie shouted, "It's like a bomb!!!"

-Lily got two shots last week. The doctor left the room, saying that the nurse would be in to give her the shots. Lexie's eyes got really big, and she asked, "Is the doctor going to shot Lily???"

-While putting on her shoes, she asked, "Are these the right foots?"

-Lexie was digging in rocks yesterday. I was quizzing her, and asked her what her full name was. She replied, "Lexie Rock Digger."

-Lexie walked out of her preschool class yesterday, wearing a cute reindeer hat. She excitedly said, "Do you like my hat? We cut out turkeys for the antlers!!!"

{LILY}

I say it often, but Lily is such a sweet, happy baby! We're smitten!

-My favorite time of day is in the morning when she wakes up. She gives us the biggest smiles!

-She already mastered the devilish grin.

-Her nickname is fuzzball. After a bath, her hair sticks out like a dandelion puff. I can't stop kissing her fuzzy head!

Photobucket

-At the doctor, she was full of smiles. All the nurses had to stop in to visit. She smiled as she was weighed and measured, smiled through her exam, and even smiled during the first shot! She loves people!

Photobucket

-She is so talkative! Last night, she woke up in the middle of the night and spent and hour cooing and giggling in the dark. Even though I'm exhausted today, it's hard to get mad at all that cuteness!
