Conversations

Kenzie: Mom, where is my money that I earned for reading 1,000 minutes?
Courntey: Oh ya, I'll go get it.
(I start to look for some quarters because that is what we agreed on if she didn't cry and complain, she would earn a quarter every day. )
Kenzie: Mom, can I have a dollar?
Courntey: Sure I can give you a dollar.
(I go to my purse and begin looking for a dollar bill.)
Kenzie: Oh mom, can I have one that has a 100 on it?
Mom: No Kenzie, you can't have a hundred dollar bill!
Kenzie: Oh man!
(I hand her the dollar bill and she runs up to her room to put it in her piggy bank. And if you are thinking, "Wow! She has a hundred dollar bill?" My answer is no, but I wish!



Bedtime, as you all know is %$*^^! You put the kids in bed and every 5 minutes they find a reason to come out. This was Lexie's excuse.
Lex: Mom, I have pink eye.
Courtney: Oh good!
Lex: No mom, that's not good!
Courtney: Okay, well, go to sleep and you'll get better in the morning.
Lex: No mom, I think it will get better if I just stay up.
Courtney: LEXIE GO TO BED!
Lex: OKaaaayyyyyyy...
(10 minutes later)
Lex: Mom, I need a drink.
Courtney: You already had a drink.
Lex: I need another one.
Courtney: Hurry and get one.
(5 minutes later)
Courtney: ALEXIS, GET OUT OF THE BATHROOM. YOU ARE DONE GETTING A DRINK. GET IN BED.
Lex: OKaaaayyyyyy...


Courtney: Say ma ma.
Jordyn: Da Da
Courtney: Say ma ma
Jordyn: Da Da
Jared: Say Da Da
Jordyn: Da Da
Jared: I don't know what your problem is, she says my name just fine.

Did you do a facepalm after Jared's comment or a smack up the backside of the head? Haha, or more appropriately a good eye roll and get annoyed.

I think Kennedy and Kolby can give your bedtime excuses a run for your money!

Why is it always "da,da" and never "ma, ma" first? All our kids did the same thing. Where would they be without the milk and the 24-hr. care? I do NOT get it. "Da, da"... Ugh!! Good luck on the bedtime routine. When they are teenagers, it will change to "Get up!" Ha!
