Eliza:
Eliza really hurt her ankle about a week ago, and she wouldn't walk on it for the entire day. She was trying to tell me what was wrong and she kept saying, "ouchy bagel! ouchy bagel!" I finally concluded she meant ouchy ankle. I taught her "ankle," but she insists that it is now a "pankle"
Hazel:
We have been drumming up the conference excitement and Hazel was remembering how we played bingo. She couldn't remember the exact name for it though and it came out as:
"Remember how we play conference Mango?"
Then last night as I was putting her to bed she woke herself up from her sleep and asked me, "Mommy are you brave enough to take me on a parachute? I will be brave it you will go with me in a pink parachute." Then without another word she rolled over and went to sleep. Totally random since I don't know where she has seen parachutes, but still very cute. We may go skydiving sometime :)
Miriam:
Miriam was eating a lollypop from her birthday. I told her to finish it and them go brush her teeth. She was a little irritated that I would be so pushy, so I explained lollypops were REALLY bad for teeth. She looked thoughtfully at me and said, "They are not that bad." "Yes they are." I replied. She then said, "Well Mommy, they are not as bad as Lamanites." Very logial, I had to concede defeat.
Jacob:
Jacob and I were reading the Book of Mormon, and I was trying to explain to him what the word "dominion" meant. I told him that Jared and I had "dominion" over the house we are living in. Jacob thoughtfully replied, "No mommy you don't, the Landlord does."
The kids also love having Uncle McKay around and it is nice to have another set of hands to read books or do whatever :)
