Already?

Today I think Caroline finally realized that at one point mommy and daddy didn't have any kids. I know its hard to believe seeing as we'll have three on our 5 year anniversary but really at one point in our marriage I wasn't pregnant, for example the first six months. Anyways we talked about getting married and having kids and I guess I should have seen the big question coming. Caroline asked me flat out, "Where do babies come from?" I was a little (well really) surprised that she asked because she's THREE not ten THREE. So as quickly as I could I came up with, "Mommies and daddies make babies and they grow in mommy's tummy." Thankfully she was happy with my most basic explanation but I thought I had a few more years to think of something better to say. Wow parenthood is interesting!

Funky Sayings

When I asked Graham who was in charge today he raised his hand and said, "me"
As I was putting Graham down for a nap he looked up and said, "Me not tired EVER." Nice try.
On the way home from a mother/son activity I was asking Devin a few questions and I guess he had enough because he finally said, "Mommy can you not talk to me right now?"
When Shawn walked passed the kids coloring today he overheard Devin say, "I"m coloring a machine and it poops, and poops." Boys will be boys I guess.
Caroline says to me today, "How about we go shopping just the two of us while dad is on vegitation." Me, "You mean vacation?" Caroline, "Oops, yeah."
Yesterday Caroline asked if Graham was made of plastic. In response Devin said, "No he's made of boy."
As we were sitting down to enjoy some chocolate chips Devin said, "I like chocolate chips, they make me feel good."
Devin was in his room for a time out. When I opened the door to talk to him he ran over slammed the door in my face and said, "I'm not ready to talk yet." He's good at expressing his feelings.
A few days ago when I called Devin by his full name (Devin Michael) he looked at me and said, "No me Michael, me Devin." He's funny.
When I told Devin he needed to share his toy with Caroline he replied, "But I love it." Apparently he thought that meant he didn't have to share it. Sorry kid.
