Charlie was showing me all his muscles, and Pa came up behind him and lifted him up.
Me: Wow, Pa is strong too.
Charlie: He is strong for an old guy, right?
The kids have been playing nonstop the past week. I love it. Just now Charlie was looking at Kate's face on the floor and said:
Charlie: Mommy, Kate has hair in her nose. I guess she is growing up.
Turns out it was a piece of Lily's hair stuck on the tomato soup left from lunch on her nose.
This morning Josh was visiting the kids.
Charlie: Josh do you eat candy a lot.
Josh: No, not really. Not anymore.
Charlie: That's redonkculous
Yesterday, being the super mom that I am, I took the kids to Morrison's school supply store for teaching materials, to REI to return my bike helmet, to Whole Foods, and Trader Joe's. They were perfect at each store. A little loud and annoying in the car in between destinations, but still helpful, good listeners, and cute as ever. At Trader Joe's they decided they each needed their small shopping carts halfway through our trip, and so became a force to reckon with. Down and up each Aisle we had my cart, and each kid had a "shopper in training" cart. At one point a woman was unable to pass up and waiting patiently for us to figure out which groceries go in which cart and move on. She smiled at the kids and the kids smiled back. About a second after she passed us:
Charlie: She is really super old right Mommy?
Me: Well, she is older than you that's for sure....(she was probably pushing 80)
There are a few more funny quotes but I am totally spacing on them now that I am signed in. I will update if and when I remember.
