In our 8th month we moved into our new home so it was a full month including adding all the snow and the holidays so I decided I would put together a list of all the quotes I hear on a daily basis.
Disclaimer: No Judgement here, if you can't find the humor then stop here...
They always say that kids say the "darnest things" well I believe just that. They pick up on so much that they hear and repeat like little parakeets. Some good and some bad.
Since moving into the new home to date we have had 2 mice encounters, multiple deer encounters, a roadrunner literally running out of our garage, owls hooing outside our window, and the worst of the worst a snake. Anyone who knows me knows that snakes are my biggest fear. We were in the backyard and the kids were messing with the outlet box and I looked down and saw a snake hissing and attempting a strike at Blakes ankle. Mother of the year over here took off to the front leaving my kids with the contractor and the snake. I'm in the driveway hyperventilating as he brings the kids peacefully to the front. The snake is killed and we realize it's a baby copperhead attempting a strike in cold weather. What? yes, cold weather....
Richard-"Who's scared of snakes?- "mommy scared of names, she run real fast"-Blake
"No Richard, I've got it"-Blake
"I want to be naked please"-Blake
Me-"Sit down Dax (referring to going down the stairs)"-"No I have poop, I can't sit"-Dax
"Oh shit it's broke"-Dax
"I want cock!" Me-"what?" "cocks I want them"-Blake talking about socks
Me-What are these? "Big cocks"-Blake
(Fighting nicely-have I mentioned that's all they do?) "Excuse me please get out of my spot. please go see mommy for time out"-Dax
"Blake if you don't stop screaming the dump truck is going to pick you up"-Dax (I swear this is all him)
The month of December flew by, we had Penguin Ryder (our elf) visit daily. Some days he forgot to take flight to a new location, actually that happened quite a bit. We added an Advent calendar to our month and each day after naps Peguin Ryder would leave a treat so that was lots of fun. We decorated cookies with our friends, made ornaments, and went to the Devon Saturday with Santa where they saw live reindeer. The kids saw Frozen and absolutely loved it. Every Santa encounter we had they actually talked to him and asked for cars. Well to their surprise Santa made their wishes come true and delivered them a great Christmas. Santa put new cups in their cars that looked very much like coffee cups and when Dax saw it for the first time he said "hey mom look, santa brought me a coffee cup".
Paige was sick for the entire month and we are finally getting out of it. Even as sick as she was with her head cold that baby was such a delight to be around. She is just the happiest baby. She is pulling up, into everything, eating cheerios, and loves green beans. She loves to wrestle down her brother and sister. Both are finally so sweet to her. Blake loves to kiss and hug on her and Dax is so kind to his baby and always is so gentle with her.
Paige weighs 17 pounds 3oz in the 27th percentile and is in the 2nd percentile for height at a whopping 26 inches, we even double checked it and think she was measured to long last time. Yes that is half an inch shorter than last month. My sweet little Paige now has 6 teeth, 4 on top and 2 on bottom.
