funnies

The girls were playing hide and seek and NiNi was doing the seeking.  She came to the living room where I was sitting and asked if I knew where Meagan was hiding.  Refusing to divulge any information I said, "I plead the 5th!"  She said, "Darn it!  I don't even have five dollars!"

Chris' company party this year was cocktail attire.  I don't even own a regular dress (I am not kidding) let alone a cocktail dress, nor a single pair of heels.  So I grudgingly bought some jewelry and an acceptable outfit.  When I put it all on NiNi said, "Wow mom, you look like a rich lady!"

With all the stuff Ethan's had done, he has become very comfortable using proper names for all of his body parts.  I took him to Subway for lunch after his urology appointment.  As we were eating I saw an older lady eyeing him and smiling.  When she got up to leave she stopped by our table and tried to engage him in a little small talk....what's on your shirt, what are you eating, etc.  Next thing I know he tells her, "My penis feels better!"  I think she was hard of hearing because she replied, "Oh that's nice sweetie"

I had to give NiNi a "time-in" the other day.  By now she knows all the "therapy lingo" we try to use on her when she's having a meltdown.  As I was holding her and talking to her (quite against her will)  she yelled, "This is NOT highly recommended!"

Whenever I won't buy NiNi something or take her some place that costs money she says, "Aw mom you're so cheap on me"

It is adorable the way that Ethan still mixes up his words.  For example, he loves to yell at his sisters, "You not better say dat!"
