Organized Chaos: 7/13/08

Just a few pics from our last couple of days...

Drewisms...

"...but Mom, the sun is GENUINELY in my eyes!"
"bathtised"
Last night Drew was telling us about an assembly they had at school about "Maraca - you know the country that has camels!" I think he meant Morocco? May 14,2008
Upon asking Drew about the other students in his class, he replied, "they don't call them students in London. They call them pupas."
Drew asked me where I was going last night and I told him I was going to Young Women's (I'm a leader for our church youth organization). Drew promptly responded "Young Women's?! You're not young!" Thanks, Drew.
Drew has let us know in no uncertian terms that he does NOT want to get married. When we asked him why he said "cause then you have to KISS!!" We'll see what he has to say about that in about 10 years.
"fly swapper" (fly swatter)
"family home meeting" (family home evening)

Addisonisms...

"I'm terribly busy..."
"I'm allergic of it"...what Addie says to any food she doesn't like...7/09
Out of the blue at dinner tonight..."wait for it...wait for it...(long pause)...BURP!!! Wade laughed so hard he about fell off his chair! Good thing we don't encourage this kind of behavior... 3/09
"...first comes love, then comes kissing, then comes riding in a baby carraige..." 2/09
"These Cheerios taste like goat." 9/08
"Mom...I wish you were a baby again so I could fight you." 8/08
"my forhead is thinking about..." - August 08
amn't
"Cannon Bum!" (cannon ball) 6/08
"on purfose" (on purpose) 6/08
In Addie's prayers last night she said, "thankyou for daddy saving us from the spinning potato". Ummm...anyone heard anything lately about a deadly spinning potato? Upon further questioning, we figured out she meant a tornado. We're just not sure when or where Wade so bravely saved us from said tornado! May 14, 2008
Addie likes to tell "stories". So when I asked her the other day if she was telling the truth or making up stories, she responded, "I'm making up the truth." Right.
In a recent bedtime prayer..."Thank you that everyone could know that I'm beautiful...(burp)...excuse me. I burpded."
"Dad, you just don't understand!"
"I have TWO holes in my nose to pick!"
"Mom! It's not YOUR choice, it's MY choice!" in response to telling her I didn't think what she was doing was a good idea. What 3 year old says that?!
"need-need" (she can't just say it once - it's always I need-need!)
"noe tails" (toe nails)
