Some Funny Things that My Funny Kids Have Said and Done Lately

Cade(on how he feels about the name Maddie Grace) Well, it's not my favorite, but it is a good yelling name

Bailey (when asked what she was thankful for) I'm thankful that I am so awesome

Bailey (when I asked her what she was excited to do when Maddie Grace comes) I am going to hold her (what if she starts crying) Then I'll put her in her bed (what if she is still crying) Well, that would be a nightmare

We had a baptism service after church last week and were talking about it at lunch. Bailey asked if it was scary...I said no, they just dunk you under really quickly. She then asked, If you're badder, do they dunk you deeper?? Later on that week, she was asking me about being "bath-tized" and said that she would rather be "showertized". Then again, it came up and she called it being "sanitized".

Bailey asked if we could have the salad with "nativity" chicken, instead of rotisserie chicken

This week was Cade's assistant teacher's birthday. I was lame-o and hadn't wrapped her present yet and said I would bring it the next day. Ms. Amy called me that day and asked if I knew and was okay with Cade's present for her (of which I was unaware). He had brought her Mexican pesos and tokens from Adventure Landing (an arcade). I thought it was too precious!

Cade's teachers came over the other night for dinner and Bailey got all dolled up with a fur stole, high heels, lots of make up and sparkly pink hair gel. I was commenting on the amount of hair gel and how it was going to be interesting to get it out. Bailey asked, "Is it too much? Do you think it looks tacky" I was cracking up!!

Cade is excited about the baby, but keeps reminding me that it COULD be a boy and we really should be prepared with a name and some boys clothes!! I think he's holding out a little hope that he won't be surrounded by sisters :)

This isn't a funny thing, but it was so precious. The other night, as we were driving home, Bailey started talking about how she really wanted to marry a man that was a Christian so that he would want to go to church with her and love Jesus. She also asked me if I would pray for this also. I was so touched that she was already thinking about this at five years old!!

This pic at the top is the lovely way that my children dressed up when Cade's teachers came over the other night. No shame in their game!! The other brunette sweetie is Cade's assistant teacher's daughter! They were so silly and had a blast having a fashion show for us. Bailey even came out in a hot pink straw hula costume at some point. I'm glad that Cade's teachers have a good sense of humor!!

I love my life and my kids truly make me laugh like no other! They are two funny people!
