More Funny Sayings

I know that 90% of my posts are about the things my kids say. But they are so funny I have to share them. Here are some things Hannah said to us this past week:

#1: Mommy, did you know that you are my woman?!

#2: Hannah is required to spend 1 hour each day in Quiet Time, which means she plays by herself in our room. When she is tired she has a really hard time entertaining herself and staying in the room until Quiet Time is over. Yesterday was one of those times, and she finally just came downstairs and sat there. When we requested that she go back in the bedroom, she sat down, put her chin in her hands, and said, "Shucks, I don't want to have quiet time!!!"

#3: Seth was trying to explain to Hannah what a joke is, so he used the most basic example he could think of. So for the last day and a half, she's been going around saying, super-fast, "A-guy-walks-into-a-bar-and-says-OUCH!" We hope she forgets this joke before she goes back to Primary next week (we had stake conference today).

Joshua has his own brand of humor and some unique quirks. He is such a boy. His favorite thing to do lately is to pretend to be a cat. He crawls around, snuggles, meows, and licks everything. However, we prefer him licking his pants or our arms to him licking the carpet, chairs, etc. everywhere we go. The worst is at bedtime, because he licks all over my face and chest while I am singing his songs. But if for some reason he's not doing that, he gets a kick out of pinching his nose and sucking in air, and then letting go to see how long his nostrils can stay stuck together without holding onto them!

You'll notice in the pictures from the last post that Joshua has a favorite round straw hat, which is stinkier and more battered than you can see in the pictures, and he wears it everywhere. All the time!

Joshua is the biggest Mama's boy this planet has ever seen. If Mommy is home, Seth can't do anything for him at all. He will cry and cry if Seth even tries to lift him out of his booster seat or pour him a bowl of cereal. It's ridiculous -- but kind of sweet too :)

He also is so cute with the way he talks. He loves to participate in scripture reading, and it's so funny to see such a tiny little person repeating words like stiffneckedness, visionary man, land of their inheritance, genealogy... you get the idea. He talks really well and has very grown-up sentences, but he still has a few funny words for things, like "helocoaster" instead of "roller coaster".

Anyway, they can be cute, even though at the moment I'm listening to them scream at each other...guess it's dinnertime!!!
