I know I've let way too many things go without being documented... and these kids are growing up and changing so fast it's ridiculous, so a few more things before I forget.
Paisley.
She's coined a unique term of endearment..."ah-nah-no, ah-nah-no." No Idea where she got it, but for the last several months it's been, "Yowe the best mama in the whole wide wode ah-nah-no ah-nah-no!" Or "Yowe my mommy Mommy! Ah-nah-no ah-nah-no."
She's also waaaaaay into the princess thing right now. There's a certain rainbow-striped dress that is "the pwincess dwess" and she's HAD to wear it daily for several weeks now. Usually I can get her to take it off at some point of the day so it can be washed, and occasionally I can get her to wear something else for a little while, but we haven't gone 24 hours without wearing it for about a month. Here's proof...
Some of her quotes that I facebooked:
Paisley holds up a chicken nugget. "It's chicken! It's a DEAD chicken! So we can eat it! Yum!"
Me: "What did you get into?" Paisley: "Nuffing." Me: "Open your mouth...*take picture*...is that chocolate?" Paisley: "Nope." (please note what she's STILL wearing)
Paisley watched Toni Braxton perform on tv, looked down at herself, and announced, "Mommy... I have kid boobs." I laughed, "You have kid boobs?" "Yeah," she said, "see?" *lifts shirt up to show me* Uh-oh.
I SO wish someone else was hearing this conversation with me. Layla: "I'm making a boy robot named Beesbopped." Paisley: "Does he have a penis?" Layla: "No." Paisley: "Wait, he's a boy robot but he doesn't have a penis?" Layla: "I know, weird, huh?" And on, and on, and on...
L&P got sent inside tonight when they disobeyed Daddy for the 2nd time. Layla yelled, "Staying in the house is TERRIBLE!" Paisley followed up with, "Yeah, you guys are JUST JEALOUS!" to which Layla replied, "Yeah! You tell'em Paisley!" When Jacob and I stopped giggling outside we had to go in and have a little talk about still being respectful even when you feel upset. I would have killed for a video of that moment.
P was so happy that "church came to our house!" last night. I love that she thinks of "church" as people, not a place.
Paisley: (talking about Jacob and I) "Layla! They're going to kiss! Watch!" Layla: "Eh, I'm not really into it."
