Samuel

"Mommy, if you yell at me again, I'm going to draw a picture of you with a snout!"

"When I bite into this chicken you cooked, it taste like wax!"

"Mommy, when grandmama Lizzie was 99 years old, did you have to yell in her ear like you do now that she's 100 years old?"

Talking to his friend- "My papa bought me this Indiana Jones Lego set...you know, he's a business man. He has lots of money to buy lego sets!"

Singing

Tonight, Abby and I were singing before she went to bed. She loves to sing "Jesus Loves Me" and "Jesus Love the Little Children" but tonight every time we sang the part, "red and yellow, black & white" she would say, "no mommy, it's red and yellow, black & BLUE!"

Potty Training

Abby started wearing big girl panties this week and I am proud to report that she took right to it with hardly any accidents. My baby girl is growing up way too fast. Way to go Abby!!!
Now, if I could just make her understand that it's not okay to walk around the house naked all day! ;-)

New Years Eve

Happy 2009!

We spend most of New Year's Eve at the Wood's house visiting with good friends. Tom had a stomach virus so we jumped on the opportunity to get out of the house for a few hours! I did make sure we were home in time to ring in the New Year with him. Abigail was asleep at 11:22, before we got out of the neighborhood. Samuel stayed awake until we got home, but he was so sleepy. I promised that we could do "cheers" (as he calls it) the following day which satisfied him....he was out in no time.
