A Day In The Life...

Just for fun, I thought I would high-light some phrases you're sure to hear if you were to spend a day with us...

"Hannah, let's not use Mommy's brush to brush Bentley's hair today." (For those of you who don't know... Bentley is our dog.)

"Hannah, people drink water out of cups and dogs drink their water out of bowls. Can you please find your cup if you're thirsty?"

"Lindsay, you should try to limit the number of times per day that you burp... it's really not a lady-like thing to teach our daughter." (For those of you who don't know... I have 2 brothers... and a Dad :-))

Me: "Hannah, what would you like for breakfast?"
Hannah: "Hi-He! Please Mommy?" (Hi-He = Ice Cream)

"Hannah, it's nap-time... have you pooped yet?"


What are some phrases you find yourself saying over and over again to your kids... or husband? :-)

A Day in the Life...

Here are some examples of very typical conversations between me and Joey... if you know  us at all, you know these to be true (or you got the text or saw it on Facebook...);

Conversation #1:

Joey: "Lindsay, who discovered America?"
Me: "Abraham Lincoln. WAIT! NO! Bill... umm... George Washington? Ok, I know this... Amy Grant sang 'In the year of 1492, when Columbus sailed the ocean blue.' So, Christopher Columbus?"
Joey: "I'm texting everyone I know... I can't believe you just said that!"

Conversation #2:

Lindsay: "Is China in Asia? I mean, If we go to "The Asian Pearl" for dinner, can we order Chinese food there?"
Joey: "Lindsay, China is IN Asia... the Continent."
Lindsay: "So, we can get Chinese food there?"
Joey: "I'm texting your Dad. Where in the world did you go to elementary school?! This is going on Facebook."

So... now that I've completely embarrassed myself (not really. Hey, with a dad and 2 brothers like mine, you gotta have thick skin!). Here's the conversation we had yesterday... hopefully, you'll think it's funny because I DIED laughing (and yes, I have Joey's permission to post this :-))!

Joey: "You should make that seafood stuff your mom made for dinner while we were there for Christmas.":
Me: "That was good! I'll get the recipe. Did she serve it over rice or noodles?"
Joey: "Neither... she served it with pasta."

How perfect can 2 people be for each other? I love him so much :-)
