Literally

Jake: "Did you memorize your lunch number yet?"
Lizzy: "Nope. But I was confused when they said 'punch your number in'. I thought we were going to really punch our number. Like literally punch it."

Homework


Lizzy had this paper for homework.
Her answer to number three (and the hearts she dots her i's with) made me giggle:

Magical

Lizzy, waking up after a tough night sharing a bed with Morgan: "I don't want to sleep with Morgan anymore."
Me: "Why not?"
Lizzy: "She is just too tough to sleep with. I don't ever get any sleep."
Me: "Well you should see how you two sleep. Every time I check on you you're both in some weird positions - feet in each other's faces or falling out of bed."
Lizzy: "Yeah. I don't know how we do it. We must be magical."

Phone Call


Lizzy, on the phone: "Hello? Oh hi. Yep she's here but I'm not really sure she wants to talk to you."
**The phone was for me - it was my mother-in-law! And yes, I took the call!

Oh Susanna

Jake: "We learned a new song at band camp today.
Lizzy: "Yeah! He can play that one song about a guy who has something on his knee and he's from a different town."
Jake: "Um, do you mean 'Oh Susanna'?"
Lizzy: "Yeah, the guy from a different town."

My Fans

Jake, after Lizzy said something funny: "Now THAT'S a Lizzy-ism!"
Lizzy: "No, it isn't. But I do wish I could meet all my fans."

Pinch Me

Me: "Lizzy, your friend Addyson is going to be at daycare today! You haven't seen her for a really long time!"
Lizzy: "What?!?! Somebody pinch me!"

Booster Seat Butt


We spent much of today driving - from daycare to band camp, to the post office, to Healthways, to the salon, back to Healthways, to our house, back to band camp.
Lizzy and Morgan were pretty good passengers, until our last trip:
Lizzy: "Are we ever going to sit somewhere else? I've been in this booster seat for all day. I've got booster seat butt!"

Customers

Lizzy was helping Lexi water the neighbor's flowers and got a little wet.
Lizzy: "My panties are all wet!"
Me: "Just take them off and get in the van. Let's go home."
Lizzy, misunderstanding, takes her panties and her dress off and climbs into the van completely naked. It was only a two block drive, so Lexi and I didn't say anything and just let her ride home in her birthday suit.
Lizzy, as she jumped out of the van and into the house to find clothes: "I sure hope there are no customers here!"

Naughty House


Lexi and Jake babysat the little girls for me last night so I could catch up with some old friends.
I was gone for two hours, max.
Lizzy, as I walked in the door: "Finally. You're home. Welcome to the naughty house."
I didn't even ask.
I just sent them all to bed :)
