Daily Snippets

I want to have a place where I can keep these "daily snippets." Maybe I will make a daily snippet post once a month or so. I have to remember these forever!


Naia: "Oh gosh!"
Eaden: "Is gosh a bad word?"
Me: "No, it's okay."
(one hour later)
Eaden: "Mom, I said gosh four times!"

(writing in our joke book)
Eaden: "Why did the chicken's bones get off of it?...Because he hit a big done."
Me: "What's a  done?"
Eaden: "It looks like a bed but it's bouncy."
Me: "A trampoline?"
Eaden: "No, a done."

I don't remember what I said, but Eaden got mad and said "mommy I'm going to fart on you!" (in her angry voice). I couldn't help laughing and then she got REALLY mad at me for laughing.

The girls are playing "sewing" today. Yesterday they were playing "potty" where they sit on chairs, make grunting noises, and flush.

Caught Naia licking her fingers and sticking them in the sugar.

Me: "Why are you sitting on the couch singing the clean-up song?"
Eaden: "Because I want YOU to clean."

Eaden: "Did Abigail get a new pacifier?"
Me: "Yeah, I guess."
Eaden: "Is it from China, from the big wall?"
Me: (lol) "Probably."

Ade: "Give me back my juice Eaden."
Eaden: "You have to share. Sharing is caring."
Ade: "But you never share."
Eaden: "Okay, well let's play hot potato with it."

(Taven turns on the t.v.)
Me: "No t.v. today Taven."
Naia: "Yeah, t.v. is not good for you."
Eaden: "Yeah, playing is good for you."

Eaden: "Mommy, I'm wearing these (stethoscope) so I don't have to hear you."

  3. What a beautiful idea! I sad I haven't done something like this since my guy started talking. But, it's never too late to start because the laughs keep coming! (I think my favorite today is the clean up song snippet ;-).

  4. This is too funny!!

    I used to have a journal that I wrote all the silly bits in, but my organizational skills are lacking and I'm always losing the journal. I just saw where someone keeps a large jar (like a mason jar) on their counter with bits of paper next to it. Then when the kids say something funny that you want to remember, you jot it down on the paper and keep in the jar. I may have to try that!

  7. Brilliant, the "I'm going to fart on you" really made me laugh. I have the same problem with my kids, my daughter gets all in a huff about something but her angry strop face is so funny I end up laughing at her, which either makes her worse or she ends up laughing to.

  10. I always love it when people post conversations with their children. So sweet. Also, you know, I come over to visit you now and again and only today realized you have a Naia too! My daughter is Naiya (with a Y). Before she was born I had never even heard that name. Now we come across it all the time. Lovely moniker :)
