A couple funny comments

I never know what the kids are going to say....this can be kind of unnerving at times especially if they are talking/telling a story to someone we don't know.  Anyway, just a couple funny things I wish to remember.

Andrea- I am hoping that her speech class starts soon because she has been talking up a storm since Becca and Brayden have started school, making me realize we need to get back to work!

Today we had a special stop at a new donut shop, just Andrea and I, Me and Andrea, as we say.  After biting into a pink swirl donut and finding it filled with pink icing she looked at me and said, "We are NEBER, NEBER(she can't say her "V's") telling Decca, Brayden....it's our secret place."

She also loves to sing and having the car and music to herself she has been enjoying singing to her fullest.  Today after requesting her kid's songs she told me..."Mommy, I am going to be a contest singer....because I practice soooo much.

Becca, I usually have to pry school info out of the kids after I pick them up....this is one of the conversations I had with Becca this week.
Me: "So, what did you learn about today"?
Becca:  "We learned a lot of new rules "
Me: "oh, what were they"?
Becca: "hmmmm, I don't know, I'll remember them tomorrow"

Becca also is not a big fan of socks and shoes, thankfully we found a pair of shoes that doesn't result in a daily morning meltdown.  I didn't really realize how much this bothered her, at one point after her first day of school she told me that since she was in kindergarten she couldn't take her shoes off anymore (in pre-K they took them off for rest time).  Then the second day of school after she got in the van she yelled, "can I take off my shoes???"  after I said yes she gave a big sigh, "good, because me feet and soooo hot."  This is now the first thing she does after she climbs in the van.

Brayden, no funny story's this week from him...his thinking is getting a little more logical so not so many crazy comments from him.  Although he did lose a tooth this week, making for a lot of excitement first for the tooth fairy and second because he was able to get his name on the tooth chart at school.

 The  kids are on the hunt for the tooth fairy.  Once again I almost forgot to deliver the goods under his pillow, but managed to kick Ron out of bed to do the Fairy job.  At 4am in the morning Brayden wakes me up-MAD, arms crossed, "MOM, THE TOOTH FAIRY DID NOT COME!!" I groggily told him the fairy did come and to just go back to bed.  I heard him fiddling around in his room to I dragged myself to his room-now I am mad because I didn't want James awakened.  Where do you think he was looking???  He was looking through all his toys half way across the room-4am in the morning!!  I told him he was nuts and to get over by his bed....there was the money plain as day on the floor by his pillow which he had thrown off the bed.  Crazy kid!
