My kids do the darndest things..

There are times when I don't know if I'm coming or going when it comes to my kids. Thank goodness for those moments when they make me laugh and I'm ever so very, very grateful that I am a blessed mother of Ashlyn and Ethan. So here are a few classic moments of my kids I'd like to share with you.

"But Why???"
Ashlyn: What's that boy doing?
Me: It looks like he's packing up his car
A: But why?
M: He's probably going on vacation
A: But why?
M: Maybe he needs a break.
A: But why?
M: He probably works really hard and need some time off.
A: But why?
M: Maybe he likes to play and wants to have some fun.
A: But why?

....get the picture? Yeh, Ashlyn does the "But why?" thing for everything. We got into the car from the grocery store and there was a bug on the outside of her window. She wanted to know "why" the bug was there and for the next 10 minutes, we went through the "but why's?" all over again.

Drive Thru



Ashlyn LOVES, LOVES to ride in cars at the grocery store. She pretends that she's driving (of course) and every time I stop, she's ordering:

Ashlyn: Uhmmmmm...I'd like chicken nuggets and salad, thanks!

At least she orders a salad!!

Open Wide!!





O.k. so when Ethan was about 6 months old, I took him and Ashlyn to get pics taken. And he kept on opening his mouth whenever we were trying to get him to smile. I still look at these photos and can't help but crack up at how comical the whole experience was. I so can't wait for when I can embarrass him with these pics!

Well, I know it's not much...I wish there was a way for me to catch all the nuances, funny phrases and silly dialogues we have in this home of ours...so your just going to have to take our word for it, our kids are funny crazy!

They are just so dang cute. It's fun to remember the little everyday funny things they do. I thought it was hilarious that Ashlyn orders while driving the play car. Now, that's priceless!!

How funny that your daughter is always asking, "but why". Seriously Hunter is on that kick right now and I wish I could extract those words from his vocabularly! Everything is why, why, why, why. But, I'm sure that I'll miss it when he isn't doing it anymore. Your kids look SO CUTE!

I am cracking up at these pics of Ethan. Hyo, you have the cutest kids. I wish we lived closer so we could get together, and I could hear Ashlyn's "but why's" in person!
