What can I say...?



Today when I got out of the shower I saw that Bridget had been playing in my room and I had a nice mess of toys and fish crackers spread thoughout my floor. I said, "Bridget, you need to clean up all those fishies on the ground. That's not where they belong." Her reply was, "They are for my dog." (She only has stuffed animal dogs- no real pets here) I said, "Bridget, I really need you to clean those up and put them in a bowl for your dog because I might accidently step on them if they are all over the floor." Without missing a beat she said, " That's okay if you step on them, my dog likes crumbs."

So, what am I supposed to say to that?

That's great. That is totally something that Drew would say so I think that it is hilarious because I have had many moments like this at my house.

So funny! What a smarty pants!

Last night during our FHE game, Buzz disappeared and 10 minutes later we found that he had dumped about 5 different games on the floor of my bedroom - cards from RISK, Sorry, Cranium, MadGab, etc. (plus all the little pieces) were mixed and tossed all over. The rest of FHE was spent reorganizing the games. No cute comebacks here, let me tell you.

Hey, missed you at Grease! Hope I didn't get you into trouble by introducing myself to your hubby, "and you know Melissa, How?". Um, yeah, I'm her blog-friend, and my cousin is married to her cousin, and we went to the park today...

It was very sweet of him to tackle the play with all 4 girls along.
