Outta the mouths of mamas....

With my husband on deployment, I've been emailing him SEVERAL times a day to fill him in on all the bits and pieces that happen in a day. I don't want him to miss a single thing. Based on the emails I am getting from him, I can tell that this time away is especially tough. Maybe because there is one more cutie to miss, or maybe just because we've done this so much and when he gets home we have a really long deployment approaching. I'm not sure. But I do know that he loves hearing about our wacky kiddos and the the things they do. And since I love to share, it works out well!!

Here goes......

'Hey, can someone bring me toilet paper? What? Why don't we have anymore? Why did you use ALL THE DARN toilet paper? Ugh!!! Well, can you bring me some napkins, then??? It better be the best craft EVER!!!'

'DO NOT sprinkle salt and pepper on his head. No, no way. You can call him potato all you want, but you don't need to make him into one!!

'No, actually, that is NOT the reason the doctor's take ultrasound pictures of babies. No, it's not. Because they know the baby is a human being and not a dog or a cat. It's just assumed.'

'Why is their a tube of toothpaste in your brother's carseat? I would have waited 5 more minutes for you to brush.....'

'Tyler, I TOTALLY heard that. Asking your little brother to go get the Oreos and bring them to you is NOT COOL!'

'What is that on Jack's leg? Why is one of my nursing pads on his leg? No, we are not out of band-aids, but even if we were, that would not be what we use.'

'Sure, Kait, we can throw a message in a bottle into the ocean and hope that Daddy gets it. That's a neat idea. We can do that tomm--what Tyler? Well, I guess that is kind of polluting? Yeah, I know we shouldn't hurt the ocean. We'll just stick to email Kaiti. I know.....blame your brother ;)'

'Nope, don't wish I was a monkey. No, not a pelican either. Thanks for asking.'

'Honey, I love you a bunch, but please stop asking me which dinosaur I'd pick to be my roommate. Because, I choose none. I don't love them like you do.'

'So, you're saying 'DaDa did it?' No, I think Jack did it. DaDa has been gone for two weeks, and I don't think DaDa would have peed on the kitchen floor.'

'Wait, Tyler, what did you just say??? Why did you invite your teacher over for dinner? Oh, honey, that's nice that you want to hear about the trip she took to the Bahamas, but you can't just invite random people over for dinner. Right. She's not random. But still.  Maybe you can  just ask her about her vacation at recess or something. Well, I hope she likes Pizza Rolls....'
---in preschool, this kid invited all the other kids over to our house and gave them directions....seriously. I had a mom call me and say "Are we supposed to come over tomorrow or the next day. I was told to go down the road, and make some turns and when I see a wal-greens I am getting close.". Man, this boy.......


And the kicker that was said about 15 minutes ago and just about made me tinkle a little.......


'KAITLIN ASHLEIGH, WHAT DID YOU JUST SAY? Why are you telling Tyler I have a milky ass? No, I did not just tell you I have a good milky ass. I said, it's a good thing I can multi-task. Multi Task! Two very different things honey. And we don't say ass.'
