Kids say the darndest things...

This is going to hopefully be a new feature of the blog. Stuff my kids say that crack me up:

Hayden: "Guys...pick a number between 6 and 7." (HA!)
Caleb: "Did that girl take stupid pills this morning?" (Double HA!)

Hayden: "I can spell Max and DVD...Max is spelled M-A-X and DVD is spelled D-V-D."

Okay...so Hayden was on a roll this week and church this week was particularly eventful with our kids so here's a couple of highlights... During church Hayden is drawing a picture and the speaker says, "I know the church is true..." Hayden rolls her eyes and whispers to me, "OF COURSE it's true! What do you think we are doing here?"

Most of you know that our kids (and we) have been praying for another baby for some time now, so during this same meeting after the 4th baby blessing ended Hayden says---not so quietly, "Why do all of these people get a baby and we don't?" (Again... rolling her eyes for emphasis.)

Same meeting: Rob is on the stand to bless the sacrament so I am juggling all four kids and trying to maintain some dignity. Max is being a turkey, crawling on the floor under the bench giggling being hyper and silly so finally after struggling to get a good hold on him to pull him up to the bench I gave him a little discreet pinch on his love handle...not so discreet when he starts crying loudly and saying, "YOU PINCHED ME!! YOU PINCHED ME!! YOU PINCHED ME!!" Nice!
