Grow Up!

Abby put her pajamas on backward. She walked up to Paige and said, "Look I switched the buttons on this.. I sewed it". Paige looked at me expecting me to correct Abby. I told her, "Yup.. she sewed it all new and by herself." Paige told me laughing, "Mommy.. I think you are going to need to grow up and be an adult sometime". She is SOOO wrong. SOOOO wrong.

Our house

Paige came home from a friend's house today. The house was in a very affluent neighborhood and was truly a stunning home. When she got home she told me that her friend told her she felt bad for Paige because she had a small house. When we asked her what she would do and what makes a bigger house so much better? "Well, first of all, there are stairs. Second of all, I would play in one end of the house with my toys, then if I got bored, go play in at the other end of the house." I told her she would ave to clean those messes. Thinking it worked. Thinking with that small statement, I would make her appreiate what she had, she looked at me and said. "Well, I still want the stairs".

Am I cool?

"Paige, when you compare me to other moms, would you say I'm a cool mom?", I asked. She said, "I think you are better than some moms. I mean, I like the amount of cool you have". Paige.. always choosing her words wisely. Thanks Paige for stroking my ego appropriately. :)

SEXY

I took Paiage into Victoria's Secret today because she was asking what it was and we were shopping so we walked in. First word.. "eeeeww". She asked, "Why is there a whole store of underwear?" I told her, "Women come in here to buy things to help them feel and look sexy". She said, "Do you shop here?" I said, "Nah.. mom shops at Target". So we kept walking through and she looked at me and whispered" I think when I am older I will buy things for sexy at Target".

Jackpot!

I asked Abby to look through the lazy susan to find some crackers. She spun it around and around and finally starting reaching in. "It's always in the middle that you find the jackpot mom. The middle is the best place". For you middle children out there.. I think she was talking to you!! :)

Cowlick

Abby MUST have read the word somewhere or heard it at school. But we were putting her hair up for soccer and she kept saying, "I'm pretty sure I don't have a COW LICK". After saying it a few times I laughed and said, "Are you referring to a COLIC?" She said, "no, a COW LICK". I corrected her and came to blog the cuteness of her mis-pronunciation. Darn kid saw it spelled and pronounced what she saw!

Pretty

I was dressed up for a dinner party, more so than usual. Paige looked at me and said, "Wow Mom!! You don't even look like you! You like so pretty!" ...Um... ok...I'll take it.
