Mexican Food

We decided to go out to dinner last night. As I was trying to figure out where to go I began to ask everyone what they would agree to. Kiah actually said she wanted Mexican food. She REALLY wanted Mexican food, because when we tried to switch to something else she got very upset. She said she wanted some rice and beans. Alright, whatever!

So we got to the restaurant and they brought us some chips and salsa. Kiah put some chips in a small bowl for herself them proceeded to get the salt. The girl LOVES salt, but she over did it this time. I didn't notice until it was too late. When i looked over at her bowl it look like winter in her bowl. All her chips were covered with a salty snowfall.

Luna: That is enough. In fact, it is too much.
Kiah tied a salty chip.
Kiah: I don't like Mexican salt.

Don't eat it

As I am helping SweetPea wipe after visiting the potty

SweetPea: Mom, do you like my poop?
Luna: um..
SweetPea: Do you LIKE my poop?
Luna (trying to be encouraging, without grossing myself out at the thought of likeing feces): yeah, sure.
SweetPea: Don't eat it!

Knock, Knock

Bubba has learned how to tell a joke...kinda. To tell you the truth it is hard to understand just about everything he says. But since he got the tubes in his ears it seems to be improving. I guess there was a small binky set back, I think the surgery scared him pretty badly so he wouldn't let go of it for 2 weeks. Now his is afraid of it, I convinced him it is only for sleeping, so he runs in fear now when I offer it.

But he started to tell jokes. I am not sure he realizes it, but it made us laugh and we truly understood all he was saying.

Bubba: Knock, Knock
Luna: Who's there?
Bubba: (very proudly and excited) ME!

we all started laughing. Mainly because I wasn't expecting an answer. So getting one is where the humor lies.

Here is the best video of it I can get so far. It was like pulling teeth to get this much, I hope to get a better one soon.

A Name?

On her way into the bathroom

SweetPea: what's my poop's name?

Big Family

Luna: Do you like being a big sister?
SweetPea: yes
Luna: How many kids do Mommy and Daddy have?
SweetPea: 3, Me, Bubba, and Banana
Luna: How many kids should Mommy and Daddy have?
SweetPea: 15.....er...17!

REAL food

Tonight we had tacos for dinner. As I was building my taco I was showing SweetPea all the different things I can put inside my taco. I also talked about how you can try new things this way.

Luna: Look at all the different foods Daddy and I like to eat.
SweetPea: I don't like different food like you and daddy. I like REAL food. (on her plate was a tortilla which she didn't eat, some baby carrots, and sliced cheddar cheese)

Just a Lick

Tonight we were moving a few things around in our bedroom and we found a piece of green sidewalk chalk in the shape of an egg. It was probably put there some time ago when it was taken away from a child and "hidden." It is funny enough that we found a chalk Easter egg in our bedroom right before Easter, but SweetPea made it even funnier.

SweetPea was playing with the egg and Bubba was starting to complain because he wanted one too. So Hubbs decided to take it away. When Hubbs took it away he saw there was a wet spot. Then he looked at SweetPea and saw a green chalky mark on her chin and lower lip.

Hubbs: Did you bite the chalk?
SweetPea: No
Luna: (chuckling) We don't believe you.
SweetPea: It was just a lick!

Elephants and Alligators

The other day we were at the doctor's office, again! The doctor asked SweetPea to name an animal that starts with the letter "A." SweetPea thought about it for a few seconds and said "Alephant." The doctor laughed and said "I'll take it...this time." Later as we were leaving he told SweetPea that Elephant usually starts with the letter "E."

Today I was working on some alphabet worksheets with SweetPea. As we were practicing writing the letter "a" I was talking to SweetPea about what sound the letter "A" makes.

Luna: Ah-ah-apple
SweetPea: Ah-ah-apple
Luna: (pointing to an alligator) what is this?
SweetPea: Ah-ah-crocodile

Valentine's Day

SweetPea woke-up on Valentine's day and came into our room and said "Happy Valentine's Day!" She then ran to the window and looked out and said "Where are the hearts on the houses?"

Leaky roof

My mom took SweetPea to the Balcony sliding door to see the rain.

SweetPea: (looking out door) what happened?
MeeMaw: It's raining
SweetPea: (looks outside, can't see rain falling, but sees water dripping off the roof) It's not raining, the roof is leaking!
