One more

I just had to add one more that just happened. We just had lunch, and while eating Bethany said, "Whoooooo! There I let the air out of my boobs, so I can fit more in there."
~The girls have been really into using their imaginations and playing with the Fisher Price Little People toys a lot lately. They have the house, boat, car, farm, and tons of animals and people. The other day Aaron and I overheard them playing and we heard, "Quick! Everyone into the boat! There's an oil spill!" Hmmm, do you think we have had the news on too much lately?

~Every night we all sit on the couch and read stories before bed. Shea of course must do everything by herself, so she reads her story to us. No, she can't read. She makes it up as she goes. Well last night she was taking like 20 minutes to read her book. By the time she got to the last page, Aaron blurted out, "And they lived happily ever after. The end." Shea gave him an evil look and just said, "Not quite." It was funny to us.

~Same night as I am tucking Shea into bed, she suddenly looks stricken and in a weak pathetic voice tells me, "Mommy, I don't feel well." I asked her what's wrong. She replied, "I need diamonds, mommy."

I have been slacking. The kids have been saying so many hilarious things lately, and I have probably forgotten half of them. Hopefully they will come back to me so I can write about them. Some of the ones I do remember are:

~At a BBQ on the 4th of July, we ate a LOT! After eating tons of food and dessert, Bethany came up to me and claimed she was hungry again. I asked her, "How can you still be hungry? We ate so much food, your belly must be filled up to the top!" Her reply was, "Yes, but my boobies aren't filled up yet."

~Bethany and Shea were playing doctor and Shea had the stethescope and was examining one of her baby dolls. Bethany was supervising. Then I hear, "No Shea! The heart is in the boobs, not the tummy!"

~"Daddy, you need to listen to mommy!" ~Random comment by Shea

~One evening Bethany asked me whats for dinner. I told her chicken and rice. She said, "What's wice?" Shea tells her "Rice Benny! You try rice before and you like it!" Bethany tells her, "No Shea. Mommy said Wice. WUH WUH WIIIIICE."

~One day I put on Shea's shirt that has a picture of a caterpillar on the front. She was very excited about it, and was showing everyone. Bethany randomly decides to tell her, "Shea, tadpoles turn into frogs." Shea tells her, "No Benny. Caterpillars turn into butterflies!" Bethany: "But tadpoles turn into frogs!" Shea starts to get irritated, "No Benny! Caterpillars turn into butterflies!!!!" Bethany gets louder, "Sheaaaaa! I'm telling you just that tadpoles turn into frogs!!" They kept arguing back and forth until they were yelling at each other about this. A half hour argument about this.

~We recently went to my grandparents house to visit with them for the day. While there, we saw a lizard on their picnic table on the back porch. My grandma set them up on little stools by the back door so they could watch it. Bethany suddenly announced, "There's 2 lizards now! What are they doing?" We go over to see, and my Grandma told her, "They are making babies." (Thanks a lot Grandma!) Once we got home, Bethany wanted to know why the lizard got on top of the other lizard to make the babies. Then she told me we need to go back and see the babies.

~Same visit, we were sitting down to eat, and Grandpa Greg got up and said, he forgot to get his pill that he needs to take with dinner. Bethany asked us, "Why does Grandpa Greg need a pillow?" Grandma laughed and told her, "Grandpa Greg is shrinking in his old age and need to sit on a pillow to see over the table." Well, Bethany takes everything extremely literally, so once Grandma told her that, you could not convince her otherwise. Grandpa Greg came back to the table, and Bethany promptly asked him why he is getting so old that he has to sit on a pillow to eat.
