Kids Say The Darndest Things

I love all the little funny things that my kids say . . . Luke needed a "bambaid" (band-aid) for his finger and Caleb wanted some "ogert" (yogurt) for breakfast.  Haylee used to say she was "foi" (4) and in kindergarten everyone in Maddie's class had the last name "Bullard".   All too soon they think they know everything.

Pigs Are Flying

I've done it!  Yep, I've joined the exercise club.  I am on day 4 in my new quest of getting my body back and getting back in shape.  I'm trying all sorts of workouts, but mostly including walking/running.  I've spent 2 days at the church walking the parking lot and gym, 1 day on the high school track, and today spent my first day in the gym.  It's been 8 years since I set foot in a gym and it was great to get back! 

Working out does have it's drawbacks though.  I must have been extra tired last night because when I was helping Haylee with her hair this morning she pointed something out on my pjs and I thought I had lost a button - then I realized they were just on inside out - oops!

A Conversation With Maddie -

Me: Sit down so I can braid your bangs.

Maddie: But I don't want them braided.

Me: You can't have your hair hanging in your eyes.  I thought you wanted to grow your bangs out.

Maddie: Seriously, is this what you want to do to them everyday?  Will it look okay with my hair curled?

Haylee: Yeah, Janie does it all the time.

Me: That's where I got the idea to braid your bangs.

Maddie: Really?  Okay then.

Thanks goodness for cool aunts like Janie!
