Avery's prayer

Avery gave the prayer tonight before going to bed and she said in her princess high pitched voice,

Dear Heavenly Father, please bless that we can sleep good.
That we can be good.
Please Father. Please bless that we can have some lunch.
In the name of Jesus Christ, Amen.

We all busted up laughing. Lunch? This kid is all about food.

Chocolate milk, part 2

Avery always likes to drink chocolate milk, and she asks for it over and over.  Whenever I tell her that she's already had chocolate milk today, she says, :Yeah, but I haven't had another chocolate milk!"

pretty sneaky.

No Smoking

Our neighbor was out smoking and I was talking with her for a few minutes and Madisen kept trying to interrupt us. I kept saying, "Hold on Madi". Finally I said, WHAT Madisen!? Madi turns to our neighbor: Jesus said we shouldn't smoke! We have to choose the right."

!!!  (Awkward:)


.....Thanks Madi.

I love Spending!

We were having Family Home Evening last week and we have started (again) the chore chart. We were giving  the girls' their money for doing their chores that week and splitting the money in three ways in their piggy bank. Spending-60%/Savings-30%/Tithing-10%

They are both really excited about getting an allowance. It's not much, but to a kid it is! Anyway, Madi said as we were done, "I love the spending part the the best!"

Typical girl.

Head blowing up?

Today in Primary Avery yells out, "My head hurts. It's gonna blow up!"


(me...giggle, giggle)

Gravity

As we were driving home from picking Madisen up from school she asked me,

"Mom, so the eartf(earth) is round like a ball, so how can we drive on it? Because we would fall off and be upside down?"

Hmmm....I wasn't quite sure how to answer this as I had a brain *toot.

I said, Well the earth is so big, that it's like it's flat.

Madi: But it's not flat so how come we don't fall off.

We have gravity to pull us down.

Madi: Oh, ok. (like that made all the sense to her.)

Those round things...

Madisen asked me last night, "Mom, what are those things?" pointing at my shirt.

I said, "What things? This picture on my shirt?"

Madi: No, those round things on you?

Me and Ryan finally getting what she is talking about and trying not to laugh...."Those are called breasts. Every girl gets them when she gets older."

Madi: Well, why?

Me: Well, because that's how girls are made. Breasts are there to feed our babies when they born. They produce milk.

Madi: How come boys don't have them?

Me: They just don't. Only girls

Madi: What do you do with them?

Me: Well, like I said, they are there to feed babies milk. When a mom has a baby milk comes out of them and feeds the baby. And when you get bigger and older like mommy and have a baby you will get them too.

Madi: Oh.

100 Jelly Beans=Fat

I picked up Madisen from school yesterday and I was talking with her about greater and less than. I would asked her things like what number is greater 5 or 7 and she would tell me.

I then asked her what is greater 99 or 100. She said 99.

I said, "would you rather have 99 jelly beans or 100??" (thinking she would rather have 100, what kid wouldn't want more candy, right?) 

She said, "99 jelly beans."

I said, "Madi 100 jelly beans is more or greater than 99." 

She said, "I know! BUT 100 jelly beans will make you FAT!"
