A few funny "kidisms" from our house.
A couple weeks ago, Molly had croup (a very obnoxious cough) and we were both very sleep deprived from her persistent coughing. After 3 nights of this, I took her to the doctor. When we got there, I thought to myself, "man her diaper is HUGE". I didn't think she had THAT much to drink. The doctor went out to get a shot for her, so I quickly went to change her diaper. I took off her pull-up and realized why it was SO HUGE . . . I had never taken off her night time diaper. I had just pulled the pull-up over the top of it in my sleep deprived rush. The doctor, nurse and I had a good ole laugh (tears and all). Mothering aint' for sissies!
I gave Mo, our babysitter, a picture of the kids when she came over one day. Jack asked if he could see the picture and when he looked at it he commented, "Hey, them's my people!"
The lil' kids had made a mess of a piece of chocolate cake by quickly stuffing it in their faces while they ran around the island in the kitchen. There were crumbs EVERYWHERE!! (I was going to the restroom . . . . I know how irresponsible of me . . .) I told them they had to clean it up. They got out the vacuum and cleaned up all the crumbs and then preceded to suck up their jammies, their hands, their hair, the cat, etc. They were giggling the whole time, so I let them at it. They came over to show me their new discovery. They were sucking up their mouths . . . ooh gross, right? Who knows where that nozzle has been? It get's grosser . . . they both have colds. YUK noses, streaming with thick green mucus. Well in the process of sucking their mouths, they were also sucking the snot off their faces. Long streams of snot going from the nozzle to their nose. SICK!!
Oh, the joys of lil' toddlers. I'll save you from the potty training experiences . . . sigh . . . .
Oh, yes Molly has very little hair. In March Jack cut the back off. We hide all the scissors in the house. In April, they found some random pair in the craft closet. He cut the top off. Both times while a babysitter was here. It's still very short, very!! Thank goodness she has a bit of hair on the sides for pig tails.
