Our snowboarding princess

Cady came out dressed like she is in the video and this is her tale of why she is dressed this way. Note, she really has no clue about snowboarding. Rob hasn't been at all this season and if anything she might have heard one conversation about it..as in, "Have you been boarding yet?"

It's very typical of me to take a video going the wrong direction. Not sure how to fix it.

Master Negotiator

Cady just went pee on her potty like she does everyday but today she wanted M&M's. Our system is that she gets one sticker on her chart everytime she goes. If she fills all the boxes on the chart she gets to pick a big candy from her Halloween Candy. She gets M&M's for poops since she is having problems with that.

But today after she peed she came into me and said she wanted M&M's. I told her we don't get M&M's for pees but I'd be happy to help her with the stickers. She said, "Yeah, but on John and Kate she gives M&M's for pees". I told Cady that when she was really little she got M&M's for pees too but now she gets stickers for pees, M&M's for poops and a big candy for getting all of her stickers.

Cady says, "What I get for farts?" [:|]

From the backseat...

The three of us were driving to Wes' Memorial Service and Cady was chatting away in the backseat.

"Mommy, look at my tummy. It's so big. I think I'm going to have a baby. But not yet, the baby has to get bigger. And then I'm going to go to the Dr. and squeeze the baby out and after that I can have a beer!"

Lordy, the conversations they remember. I'm driving and racking my brain trying to connect her thoughts and then it hit me. A few weeks ago we had this conversation.

Cady: "Only daddy drinks beer"
Me: "Sometimes mommmy drinks beer but not when she has a baby in her stomach. She can only drink beer when there is no baby in her stomach."

The things she remembers astounds me!
