Summer Quote Board

Colt says to Karin "You are a freak of nature"The situation: I can swallow a handful of pills at once (this morning 5 pills were gracefully put down with one swallow) Colt on the other hand has to take one pill at a time and use the momentum of his head whiplashing backwards to make the pill that has been strategically placed in the very back of his mouth attempt to go down the windpipe. It is not uncommon to have to try a couple of times to get the pill down and then it usually gets stuck. It is the funniest thing EVER to watch!

BUT MOMMMMM, It was just an Ask-in-it (Accident)

Colt and I were on a date last night - over dinner after a temple trip we were reminiscing about our girls. We like to say "remember when?" One of our remember when moments was when River used to say ALL the time "WHAT???" (said either really fast or slowly: Wwwwhhhhat?) and then "What you saaaaayyy?"She was really into finding out what everything meant and if she didn't understand a word she would ask about it. Oohhh, our sweet, smart little girl!

River tells us stories all the time. In her story she said "Princess River was in the highest room in the tallest tower of the castle and the dragon was flying this way. Oh no! So Princess River opened her backpack and there was her parachute! She jumped out the window and flew down. Whew!"

Silver got her shots today. River watched with wide eyes as the nurse gave Silver her shots. She counted "One, two - It's okay Silver. Oh No!!! You have to have another shot!! Three! Ooooohhhh, It's a ROUGH DAY!!!"

River just got a big girl bed. She LOVES being a big girl. She fell out of her bed last night and came in to me in the middle of the night crying: "Mommy......(sob)......my bed just squashed me....flat.....like a Pan-Cake!!!"
