Kid Comedy - Princess Edition

Princess has said some pretty funny things lately. Here's a sample.

We were reading a book about Sacajawea. The book said that she was a Princess. My Princess asked if Sacajawea lived in a castle. I said no. She then asked where she lived and I told her that she probably lived in a tee-pee. Princess then asked, "Well, was it a really big tee-pee, then?"

Princess had a friend over and they were getting a snack. Princess got down two cups. One had Princesses on them, and one had spiderman on it. She told her friend that she could choose which cup she wanted because she was the guest. Her friend chose the spiderman cup. Princess was aghast. She said, "Are you sure?! Don't you want the Princess cup?" Her friend replied that she did want the spiderman cup. Princess asked her again and again over the next five minutes if she was sure. Princess was appalled all day. Hilarious.

On St. Patrick's Day a leprechaun turned our milk green. Princess was telling her teacher about it. Her teacher asked her if she was scared to drink green milk. Her reply? "I just told Honey Bunch to drink it first."

Spring Break

Last week was the kids spring break. Timing of spring break was ironic since we still had about six inches of snow on the ground when it started. We took the kids to an indoor water park/hotel that we had gone to when I was pregnant with Megaman. It was so fun! We all had a blast. Honey Bunch was the most adventurous and loved the big slides. Dude liked to jump across logs in the water. He did a pretty good job. Princess loved the hot tub and would have had the perfect trip if she never had to get out. Megaman didn't like the slides, but he loved the water toys.

What we've been up to.....

My blogging has become slow and infrequent, sorry. We have been doing a lot, though.

When I was two, my mom got me a dresser. It was a great five drawer dresser and it served me well. When Doctor and I got married, it became our dresser. When we got a new bedroom set a few years back we handed down the dresser to the girls. Let's just say that they were harder on that dresser than I ever was. It now only has two operating drawers. So, Doctor, bless his heart, found time to build the girls a beautiful dresser. Who does that? Seriously, is he not so awesome? It's too cold to paint now, so this spring it will be painted white. Megaman helped too.

Dude and the Doctor also started Tae-Kwon-Do last month. They are official white belts now and got their uniforms yesterday. I'll post a picture in the near future, hopefully. They are both enjoying it and having fun doing it together. The girls are still in tumbling and it's a love/hate deal for both of them. They have a performance in April that they are excited for.

I've been busy being a mom/wife/taxi driver, etc. Yesterday, Megaman and I got a stomach bug and we were really sick. When Doctor came home, I honestly had no idea what condition the house was in, but I'm sure it was bad. He walked in the door and said, "What happened in here? Seriously, what happened in here!?" Dude, very matter-of-factly said, "Mom's sick." Like, duh, Dad, don't you know mom does everything. :) It was nice to get some recognition. Maybe I should be sick more often.

Also, here's a couple of cute random pictures.

Kid Comedy - Honey Bunch Edition

Last Saturday was Honey Bunch's fourth birthday! Crazy, crazy! This year she wanted an all girl Tinkerbell party. She was a beautiful Tinkerbell. She was spoiled by family and friends, thanks! In honor of her birthday, here's some kid comedy thanks to Honey Bunch.

*I was making dinner and the recipe calls for Parmesan cheese. When I got it out, she said, "Why are you using Papa John's cheese?"

*We were playing "salon" when she began telling me about her house. She said, "My house is very lovely and I'm very blessed to live there. But, it's a complicated house." Complicated? What?

*For Family Home Evening we made a list of things that Heavenly Father has blessed us with. The first thing Honey Bunch listed was her faith. Pretty sweet!

*When she opened a gift from my mom, she said, "Oh, wow! And I actually like it!"

Kid Comedy

Megaman - This is how he decided to eat his breakfast the other day.



Honey Bunch - Here's a cute conversation:
Me - What do you want to be when you grow up?
HB- A vegetable.
Me- What? Why do you want to be a vegetable?
HB - So I can take care of the dogs and cats!

Princess - Our home teacher came last week and he was giving a lesson about the Christmas story. He told the kids that there was no room for Mary and Joseph at the inn. He then asked if we have room for Jesus. Princess said, "Ya! In the basement!" (That's where our guest room is.) Hilarious!

Dude - I was listening to some country music and Dude came in and said, "What is this? Mom, is this even music?" Guess he's not a country fan.

Christmas Program, Santa, and Gingerbread

Dude's 2nd grade Christmas Program was last week. It was really cute and he did a great job. When I get a little more free time I'll post some video.

I also was feeling adventurous this weekend and bought a gingerbread house kit to make with the kids. They thought it was fun and that's what counts. :)

On Saturday we went to see the most creepy Santa I've ever seen. To make matters worse, he kept calling me "Madam." Yuck! I took pictures against my better judgement. At least the kids are cute.

Once There Was A Snowman

Last Saturday Doctor decided to brave the cold and teach all the neighborhood kids how to build a snowman. They were thrilled. I love how they just stood and watched in amazement.

Snow Day!

This last Wednesday was a snow day. I'm not terribly sure why, we only had about 1 1/2 inches on the ground. We still had a fun day. The kids were determined to play in the "snow" even though it was only about 10 degrees outside. I eventually made Dude come inside because I was afraid he would get hypothermia. :)
Oh, and by the way, Dude has his 3rd black eye in less than a year. This one involved a bike race, crash, and a neighbor's bike helmet.

And the best part of snow day? Megaman trying to get his own breakfast. Yum, Cocoa Puffs!

Family, Turkeys, and Football

We had such a fantastic Thanksgiving. Doctor's brother and his family came out to spend with the holiday with us. Dude was in heaven having his cousin here! They helped the kids make these cute cookie turkeys.

We even forced them to watch the BSU game, go Broncos! :)We are already looking forward to your next visit, thanks for making the trip!

Off to the Station

I took the kids to the fire station last month. What I learned is that Megaman is very timid and Honey Bunch loves to pose for pictures on the fire truck. Megaman did enjoy ringing the bell on the end of one of the trucks. :)
