Don't Ever Want To Forget!

Jeffrey and I have been thinking for a while now that we should start a blog so we can document all of the funny things our kids say and do. At first he said I should just start blogging more of that stuff on my blog, but I feel like not everyone would appreciate it as much as we would. You know, pearls before swine. :) So I decided to dedicate this blog to JUST Jacey and Jaclyn...and soon Thomas. I'm not making it private, because I'm sure there are some who might enjoy a post here or there, but I don't expect anyone to really follow this. It's mostly just for us. I'm also not going to try to backdate and remember past funny things, unless they come to mind and then I'll blog them. For now, I'll just start with today.

I told the kids that they were going to Mandi's on wednesday and if it was nice out, they could swim in their little pool and go in the bouncy house. So Jacey included in his lunch prayer, "Please bless that it won't rain. For real. Like actually for real, I'm not joking."

Jacey and Jaclyn were getting ready to go outside to play and I was helping Jaclyn get her sandals on. Her pinky toe got stuck and I said, "Oh, oops! Your pinky toe!" and she said "No, my purple toe!" She was wearing purple nail polish.

While playing outside, a mosquito was buzzing around Jaclyn's face and she freaked out. I told her to just brush it away. She said, "OK, I'll push it away and then I'll knock it dead." Soon after, it started to thunder and she came running in and said, "Mom, I hear the storm, and it knocked me dead!"


Jacey and Jaclyn were spitting at each other and thought it was hilarious.  Jaclyn took it right in the face and decided it wasn't a fun game anymore.  She yelled at Jacey, "Hey, don't spit at me.  It's not kind and it makes me really greasy!!"

Actually, while I've been writing, I've remembered that I facebooked a few more the other day. I'll include those too.

Thomas was crying and Jeffrey was rocking him and trying to soothe him. He started singing "Don't worry, be happy" to him. Jacey came over and leaned right into Thomas' face and said, "Don't worry, Daddy will stop singing soon."

Thomas was crying a few days later and Jaclyn started rubbing his face and said, "It's okay, someone won't shoot you." She did the same thing a few more times throughout the week, but said "someone won't put you in a fire" instead. ????? :)
