August's Antics

Ellie:

• Calling your hamper a hampster




• Me: "Ellie, I love you more than anything in the world." E "Mom, I love you more than graham crackers."




• Calling Spagettios Oreos




• Once I gave you the bowl of said Spagettios you yelled "Come on Oreos, bring it on!"




• Calling Chex cereal checkers


• When you get exasperated you huff and say "Oh, for heavens sake!" or "For crying out loud!"

Reese

• "Mom, cows make milk and horses make potatoes."




• I was getting you a drink and you asked for chocolate milk. Instead I got you a cup of water. You looked down at it for a minute, looked up crestfallen and said "This isn't what I ordered."




• You are becoming our family clown. You love to make your friends and family laugh.



• Telling me that the caterpillars at school are already in their "raccoons" instead of cocoons.

Taytum

• When we were telling you guys that we would like to build a new house, we explained that you would all get your own rooms to decorate. When I asked you how you would decorate your very own room you said, without skipping a beat "In iPads."




• Reese was asking me what kind of a bug we found outside. Before I could answer you said "Maybe it's an armadillo."




• I was sitting outside on the rocking chair reading, when you walked out the door, looked over at me and said "Oh, hi mom...I thought you were a pig sitting there." Ow.




• Dad and I took you to breakfast after your doctors appointment. Once we were served you kept saying "Mmmmmm". I finally looked over to see what you were enjoying so much and you were dunking your bacon in a puddle of butter.




• I was going to the store and you called out after me "Mom, will you bring me something special, like gold?"

Beck

• I couldn't find you for a few minutes. I finally found you eating a Eggo waffle in the bathtub.




• You love hats and don't mind a bit when your sisters dress you up.




• When I ask you "What does daddy say?" you quickly reply "NO!"




• When I ask you "What does mommy say?" you quickly reply "Daddy!"



• You can count to 5...and its adorable.
