B starts with Apple

The Scene: Olivia just wrapped up MOONING the entire neighborhood on the lakeside, ran into the bathroom, and proceeded to shut the door to brush her teeth.

Mark WHISPERED to me, "What.. the... hell... are we raising?..."

Olivia popped the door open and dead pan faced said, "A MANIAC!"

LOL, we have no idea how she heard him and I said, "Where do you learn these words, how do you get so smart?!"

Olivia replied without missing a beat, "I drink Smart Water...Hey!!! B starts with apple, ba-ba-ba... BAPPLE!!!"

I have a complaint to file. Olivia hogs the dance floor and I am tired of it. She makes us all sit down while SHE dances. Enough, seriously. I didn't buy the disco ball to sit idly by and watch it spin. This is BS.

Uh oh, how did that happen? What?

The German Wheel & Smarty Pants

Olivia's cousin stayed over last night. At bed time, cuz had a few moments of missing her Mommy. Olivia grabbed her throat and said, "I think I am going to throw up, Mommy." I said, "What?! Why?! What's wrong?". "I'm sick of all this crying," the little stinker replied.

I'M THE CRAZY ONE!

Report from school today: The last half-hour Olivia was crazy...like out of her mind crazy. When the other parents came to pick up their kids, Olivia greeted them at the door and screamed, "I'M THE CRAZY ONE!!!!!!" and pulled down her pants...and underwear.

Charlie, on the other hand, greets every parent with a hug. Awe.

Up in Kevin

‎"Mommy, in 'Kevin,' or um is it Kevin? .... In heaven, yes in heaven, do they have food? And, potties? How do you go potty? How do you walk in heaven? I know, you need one of those things.... Yes! A walker!"

No! Mine!

There is no concept of my versus their toothbrush when you have a 16-month old grabby-grabber and a four going on 34 year-old that wants to be just like Mommy.
