Kid Words

The other day Hailey chose to wear a little denim skirt to school. Whenever my girls wear skirts, I usually set out some bloomers for them to wear under them. I told Hailey to go get some bloomers on and she says, "Well, I don't know what those are." So I took her to her room and we looked in her drawer together. I pulled out three different kinds and said, "these are bloomers." She says, "Oh,... but those are browners, and I want to wear the redders."
What the ???
Much much later I understand she heard... "blue-mers." I guess the word must match the color.

New Loves

Okay, I have a new love in my life....besides my beautiful new girl, who is the best baby ever, I have discovered the love of chocolate covered cinnamon bears! Holy crap are these things good. I admit I may be a late at discovering these little pieces of heaven, but wow. Who would've thought that the best of both worlds would come together in something so spectacular. The lady at the store talked me into trying them and even as I am preparing my most disgusted face I take a bite and my taste buds start singing praises. I hear myself saying, "Oooh, those are sooo.......yummy! Okay, give these a try..worth it I tell ya, worth it!!!

FHE Goes Awry....Again

So last night as we are sitting down at family night and discussing some of the basics of the gospel...like baptism and what it does for us, when my children offer some serious insight into what constitutes sin. I often times ask questions that I think may be missed by my children as Shem teaches the lesson, so last night when Shem asked what baptism washes away, my children all raise their hands and answer that our sins are taken away. I take the opportunity to ask what is sin.
Hailey looks at me as serious as she can and says, "If you do something bad, like throw trash onto the ground, you get a sin." (apparently it is something we get, like a whammy or a cold)
Abby then follows up with, "Yes, you should never liver!"

Shem goes on, and then Abby decides it will be really funny to stand behind him on the couch and mouth what he is saying complete with hand gestures. I try to tell her to stop, but she is so funny, that I crack up and here ensues another break in family night. We are a serious work in progress.

It does however beat the time I asked Landon who was in the picture baptizing Jesus and he says, "Oh, I know this, George the baptist.".....I guess he is the little known baptist.
