Rollin' in the Wal-Mart aisles!

My kids are nuts and they never fail to amuse me or the line of people standing behind us in the check out line at Wal Mart. Both girls were sitting on the cart... it was the kind that had two big plastic bucket seats, not the kind where I would have to use my super human strength and lift Kristin over my head and into the basket. Anyway, I am standing in front of the cart pulling the two of them behind me, when I hear an exchange that goes something like this:
Krisin to Jenna "Got your nose!"
Jenna "Give it back!"
Kristin "Only if you give me 100 million dollars"
Lady in line behind us "snicker, snicker"
Jenna" Okay, here you go"
Kristin (while throwing up Jenna's nose) "BBBBLLLLLLLLAAAAAEEEEEEEEHHHHHHHH"
This is followed by laughter and tears as the people behind us and I try to collect ourselves and continue with our transactions.

I have two more Jenna funnies...either it is the age, or Jenna is particularly silly. Jenna has recently discovered the word sister. In the morning after Jason goes to work and Kristin goes to school, Jenna will ask "mommy, where did my sister Kristin go?" "She went to school" which is followed by "mommy, where did my sister Daddy go?"

Jenna asked for a string cheese last week and after eating a few bites, came running to me to announce that she was an elephant:


And, because I am on a roll, I will share a Jason funny. Poor Jason, living with 3 girls has to be tough for him. A phrase you hear frequently around here is "Good Girl". Jenna makes sure to announce to us when she thinks we are being a good girl, Jason included. We went to a friends house and I can't remember the circumstances, but Jason must have been pretty impressed with his buddy, because he proclaimed he was a good girl. I'm sure this would be funnier if I remembered the set up, but I don't so next time you encounter a mid twenty something guy, make sure to tell him he is a good girl and report back on his reaction. Then you will understand why this was so funny.

And in parting, last week Jenna was inspecting a freckle on Jasons arm. "Oh, no Dad! You have a boo boo!" Dad "It's okay Jenna, it is just a freckle." Jenna "It hurt?" Dad "No." Jenna "Don't worry, I'm a doctor."

Cute! Naiya once called her brother a good girl, he wasn't very happy with her :) And she calls freckles "sprinkles." Kids are so fun at this age!
