Someone get the door

*Ding dong* NanaCuckoo's doorbell rang as the kids played.

FairyPrincess: "Nana, you have a customer!"

TerrorInTraining: "Customer's here!"

Ou est ma couche-culotte?

I was gone for the weekend for work. Here is a nugget relayed to me by Daddy.

 TerrorInTraining, very naked: "Where is my diaper?"

 Daddy, a bit perplexed: "I don't know, bud. Where did you put your diaper?"

 TerrorInTraining: "I don't know. FairyPrincess took it!"

 Daddy, still perplexed: "FairyPrincess, why did you take his diaper off?"

 FairyPrincess: "I was helping him. He had to go potty."

 Daddy, now in semi-alarmed state: "Did he go potty? Where?"

 FairyPrincess, in her best 'duh' demeanor: "On the potty."

And he actually had. Apparently FairyPrincess is going to potty train TerrorInTraining for us. I sure hope so since it's a task I plan to tackle next week.

Facial hair

FairyPrincess: "Daddy has moose-stubble."

-Any facial hair on Daddy is just called stubble by the kids. Apparently Evie heard the word mustache and translated it as moose-stubble.

Motivation

Last night I decided to take the kids on a 10-mile bike ride. So here I am, not having ridden in years, pulling 90 lbs of dead weight...errr...kids and trailer, trying to get up these huge hills/bridges (mistake?). We're slowing down the higher up the hill we get.

FairyPrincess: "Mom, are you running out of power?"

Me: *grunt* "Yes" *grunt*

FairyPrincess: "It's ok. Keep going!"

Dinner Commentary

Upon walking into the house after coming home from preschool, FairyPrincess declared:

"UGH! This dinner stinks!"

Thanks kid, too bad you're still going to have to eat it.

Not a quote, but an action report

Action Report:

I like to sleep on my back. I even sometimes sleep with my hands on my chest or abdomen. Last night I fell asleep in TerrorInTraining's room. When I woke up I discovered he had tucked a sword under an arm and laid his Captain America shield over my hands.

The Voices

FairyPrincess: "Owe owe! The voices are all gone!" (said as she clutched her ear and cried)

Someone's at the doctor getting checked for an ear infection.

Thriller

FairyPrincess: "Mom, want to see my dance for school? It's Uncle Jackson!"

*proceeds to show me something Thriller-esque*
