My Darlings: October 2012

Sometimes..... making sugar cookies is kind of exhausting. So is teaching four dance classes in one day. So is being 11 weeks pregnant. So is having two kids. But it's all worth it. Especially the sugar cookies. #justmademyalreadyprematurelyfatbabybellyevenbiggerwithlotsofdeliciousprettycookies

Quote of the Day

Drew: "Moses, I love you!"

Moses: "Go away!"

Drew: "Shut up."

My Mom: "Moses! You come here!"

Moses: "No!!!"

My Mom: "Please?? I want to hold you!"

Moses: "WHY?!"

After seeing Madagascar 3:

Drew: "So, what did you think of the movie Valentine?"

Valentine: "I thought it was perfect."

My Mom yelling down the stairs: "Valentine? Was that you coming inside or did somebody come in the door?"

Valentine: "WHAT???!"

Mom: "Did somebody come in the door?"

V: "................. Grandma!!!!! There's no somebody at the door! There's no somebody at the door Grandma!!"

Moses at the doctor's for his 18 month check up while screaming hysterically at the doctor trying to listen to his heart:

"I WANT GOOO!!!!! I WANT GOOOOOO!!!!!"

Valentine: "My hair is so short Mama."

Me: "No, it's getting so long and it's so curly and pretty."

V: (with a sigh) "Yeah, it's so beautiful........ Oh well."

While rough-housing and playing with Drew-

Valentine: "Guards! Get him!!!! Guards!!!!"

Drew (to me): "I just cleaned up my stuff in the room and rearranged a few things. It's not perfect but.... neither are you."

Thanks Dear. I love you too.

While helping Valentine in the bathroom I looked in the mirror-

Me: "Oh jeez, Mommy's face looks so yucky."

Valentine: "Yous face is yucky?"

Me: "Yep, yucky."

V: "Noooo!! (laughing) Mommy's face is beautiful!"

Me: "Haha, your face is beautiful!"

V: "No you!!"

Valentine: "Look at the airplane Mama!"

Me: "Wow, where do you think it's going?"

V: "The office."

Me: "The office??? What office?"

V: "The Mommy Office!!!!"

Moses grabbed a big bag of pirate's booty in the car-

Valentine: "Look at Moses Mama! He's got a big booty!"

Me: "Moses, NO! Do not do that, that's so naughty!"

Valentine: "I'm being nice a you Mama. I'm nice."

Drew (coming home to the kids in tears and me seething): "What happened?? What's wrong?"

Me: "Um... they suck. No, that was immature, I'm sorry, I take that back....... They're horrible."

Micah: "I'm gonna man up, be brave, and go see that movie." (about 'War Horse')

Me: "Valentine, what do you want for breakfast?"

Valentine: "Um... eggs and peanut butter sandwich."

While cleaning up Valentine after she peed all over herself and my mom's couch-

Me: "Valentine!!! We do NOT go pee-pee in our underwear!!! You're a big girl, you know that!! We do NOT do that!!!!"

Valentine: (looking down) "It's not so terrible Mama." (looks at me) "It's not so terrible."

Me: "Yes it is, it is so terrible. Don't do it again."

Valentine: (looking down again muttering) "It's not so terrible Mama....."

Page: "You're gonna diiiie!"

Dad: "Do we use these, can I throw them out??"

Jordan: "Yeah you can throw them away we don't use them anymore...... but that one Dance Dance Revolution Pad has so many dear memories."

I started to nurse Moses while some of the family was around....

Merry "Drew, do you wish that was you?"

She has been on FIRE lately!

Jessie: "So, how was Page and Ted's honeymoon?"

Kasi: "Good, they said pretty much all they did was hang out in the hotel room and on the beach."

Merry: "And make-out."

Me: "Valentine, please stop doing that."

Valentine: "WHAT'D YOU SAY?!" (continuing what she's not supposed to do)

Me: "Valentine, that's enough!"

Valentine: "WHAT'D YOU SAY??!" (still doing it)

Me: "Valentine! Sto.."

Valentine: "WHAT'D YOU SAY?! WHAT?!" (still doing it)

Summer (addressing everyone): "So, if you could have a million dollars but could never use the internet again would you take it? Which would you rather have?"

Many arguments ensued about whether a million dollars is worth more than a life time's use of the internet..... after a few minutes we hear.....

Merry: "So, would you rather have food or sex?"

Silence.

Everyone: "What did you say Merry???"

"Did you just say sex?"

Nico: "She didn't, she said text."

Me: " No, she said sex."

Merry: "Uh, yeah, I say SEX."

Valentine: "Whoah Momma, she's so heavy!" (while holding Moses)

Valentine: "Happy Tine-tine's Day!" (on Valentine's day)

While Valentine is awake in her crib at midnight and being ignored by her annoyed parents: (yelling) "Momma?!........ Hey Momma?............ Mooooommmmmaaaaaaa!......... Daddy?............ Bicah?!................. ANYBODY!!! HEY ANYBODY!!!!!!!!"

Valentine: "Aw, come on!"

Kasi: "I was a creepy teenager actually."

Merry: "Um, Ted. Probably at my wedding I will dance with you third. First my husband, then my dad and then you."

Yelling from the other room-

Me: "Valentine?"

Valentine: "What?!"

Valentine: "Wight back!"

Response from Bud to my text saying "IT'S A BOY!!!"

Bud: "Hurray! Madie you really pulled through on this one."

"Page I saw the commercial for Grey's Anatomy and there's a shooter in the hospital and the Nazi gets pulled out from under a bed!"

"What are you doing Idiot A**?"

-Sassy while driving

"Snow globe, snow globe, I am yours" - an excerpt from one of Merry's poems

Jordan: "I look like a MONSTER today!"

Valentine: "No means stop!"

"Are you all IDIOTS!?"
