Kid Quotes::Vol. 56

I know I have missed some good ones. Better keep writing them down because you really can't remember these awesome one liners if you don't!

One from Brendan...

Setting--We have dance music on. Brendan is banging on a plastic box with tinker toy sticks (make shift drums...to the music) It's getting a little bit on my nerves...

Me: That's starting to get to me a bit.

Brendan: Like it's too loud? Or just annoying?

Me: ummmmm

Brendan: (before i can even answer) Because I really don't need you discouraging me right now because I really want to learn the drums.

Drums continue......


And another gem from Easton. He is full of them right now. 4 year olds are the best for Kids Quotes!

Easton: Mom, don't you think Olaf (our hamster) is cuter than Annabel?

Children's Museum

I almost forgot to post about going to the Children's Museum with Easton and Annabel. It really was fun having just the 2 little ones for week. It was so much easier (not to mention cheaper) to just pack up and go do something fun. They enjoy the same things since they are closer to the same age (don't have to entertain a 10 year old while doing toddler-ish things and vice versa). We enjoyed the Children's Museum one afternoon just me and them and it really was a blast. Sadly Brendan and Wyatt have kind of outgrown the Children's Museum and it's hard to figure out how to take the little ones there since the big boys are in my care 24/7. The things moms can do when there children go to school.....
