Even More Funnies

So I haven't been very good at posting pictures/events lately.  But I'm pretty proud of myself for writing down things my girls say that make me giggle.  One day I'd like to put all of these silly sayings in a book.  Here's some more I'll add:
  • After swimming lessons one day, I asked the girls to all get in the tub for a quick bath.  Kiera wanted to take her own shower but I said it would be faster and easier if they all just cram into the tub together.  Kiera said, "There's not enough room for the 3 of us in the tub.  Makenna's toots take up most of the room!"
  • When the girls are with me when we go to Target, we like to get their free kid's cookies.  The other day Kiera and Kasidee gobbled theirs up within seconds.  Makenna held onto hers and said, "I'm going to save my cookie for the car.  That way you guys can watch me eat it!"
  • Patting her tummy, Makenna said, "I'm feeling a little chunky."  Kasidee said, "Makenna, everybody has flubber."
  • Kasidee said, "I saw a mosquito flying around and when I closed my mouth I couldn't see it anymore.  Can you check my teeth and see if there are any tiny legs there?"
  • We've been getting invitations ready for Makenna and Kasidee's birthday parties.  Kasidee pointed to the envelopes and said, "When can we invitation them?"

More Funnies

  • As a family, we are saving up for our new puppy that we'll be getting around February.  Kasidee asked if we could get 2 puppies.  I told her no, that one is plenty.  She said that 2 puppies would be too much money.  Then she said, "If one dog is $2,000 [which is not even close to how much I would pay for a puppy!] then 2 dogs would be 40 hundred thousand dollars."
  • I called the girls inside as they were out riding their bikes.  I said, "It's time to come in - you need to have a bath and then we can do a family movie night."  Makenna said, "I want to do both of those, except the bath."

Funnies

  • The girls have had fun playing with their dolls - the other day they planned a birthday party for them.  They told me, "They're turning zero!"
  • One day, Kasidee was trying to whistle but for some reason a sound just wouldn't come out.  She exclaimed, "My whistle is out!"
  • Kiera said, "Well, that was kind of freaky."  Makenna's eyes widened as she said, "Don't say that word!  It freaks me out!"
  • Makenna said out of the blue one day, "I hope when we get our dog it doesn't bum-scootch."
  • The other day when we were running a few errands, I told the girls we would go to one store to get something Kiera needed and another store to get something Makenna needed.  After a little bit Kasidee jokingly said as she laughed, "Well, what about me?  Is there candy involved?"

Princess Festival

On Saturday we joined my sister-in-law, my niece, my SIL's mom and niece at Thanksgiving Point for the Princess Festival.  I think this is our third or fourth time going, and it is a fun experience. All proceeds go to a great charity, and the girls get to dress up as princesses and go on "quests" where they interactively participate in princess adventures.  This year was extremely hot so we didn't do as much as we probably would have, but it was fun being there and having the fun experience!
 





 
Perhaps the best part was getting all wet at the end!
 
 

Funnies

  • After Kasidee washed her hands at the sink, she couldn't quite reach the faucet to turn it off.  Pointing to the water, she asked, "Can you undo this?"
  • Kiera (who will be in sixth grade this Fall) said, "It's weird how the sixth graders are a lot smaller now than when I was in first grade."
  • Kasidee saw that I had bought a new bottle of mustard.  She exclaimed, "Ew - why did you get hamburger sauce?"
  • The other day, I bought a bunch of fruit to make a fruit salad.  Makenna started licking her lips when she saw it.  I told her that we were going to give some of it to my sister-in-law and her family.  Makenna, who likes to have food all to herself said, "So you mean you got all of this fruit for nothing?"
  • The 3 girls have been playing "Princess School" with each other for the last few days.  One of the things they're practicing is poise - and they walk across the room with a book balanced on their heads.  After trying many times and not making it all the way across, Kasidee said, "Okay, I guess I have a slippery head."
  • Kasidee told me matter-of-factly the other day, "I'd much rather have sisters than friends."
