Kid Chatter - Are you sweaty?

Joey after eating a candy cane:

• "If I am having trouble breathing, I just need to eat a candy cane!" That one seriously made me LOL!

I recently bought some new mary kay make up that has some sparkles in it (I love sparkly stuff). Today Joey was talking to me, and was pretty close when he stopped and looked closer, then said:

• 'Why do you have sparkles on your face? Are you sweaty?'

Joey was at my dad's house and my dad was getting a new printer out of the box. Joey asked him to play with the styrofome, to which my dad said no, because it would make a mess. Then, later in the evening he went to my mom and asked Grandma:

• "Grandma - are you the boss? Can I play with the styrofoam?"

This was a while ago, and I can't remember if I blogged it or not, so if I did, I'm blogging it again... I still jsut love it!! We have a little magnent board with magnent letters. One day Joey worked VERY hard on spelling out "I love mom" After he finished he looked at me and said:

• "I sended you a text message!!"

Now this is NOT so good, and we are working on it, but I love the little Mr. Attitude that's coming out in him... it's funny, but of course we're working on being respectful! Just the other day I gave him dinner and told him to start eating and he said:

• "HELLO? MOM! You never gave me a drink!!" He sounded more like a teenage girl than a 5 year old boy!! I told him to try again and he sheepishly said 'Please, mom, can you get me some milk?' ha ha!

Now little Savanna has REALLY started chattering ALOT lately. We took away her plug (pacifier) Thanksgiving weekend and ever since she has been talking a ton. And she's so funny! Her favorite things to say is

• When she fixes things: "There. All better"


• When I ask her where something is "Over there. Table." No matter where the specific object is, to her it's 'Over there. Table."


• She typically calls me mom, but because she's around kids I babysit all day, all who call me Sara or Miss Sara, when she's requesting something she ALWAYS calls me Sara. "Mook, Sara, Mook!" (Mook is savanna speak for milk) Or "Play, Sara, Play!" or "Food, Sara, Food!"


• She has quite the sense of humor and is always cracking her self up when she's talking, but I rarely understand what she's saying.


• She'll bring me the remote control and yell 'ROCKET!' (Savanna speak for Little Einsteins) or "KITTY" (Savanna speak for Tom and Jerry)

Love these goofy kids!!
