Poo brush- toothbrush

Gamgee or cah bee - Kambri

Ohpee an wookie - hopie and lukie (the babysitters kids)

Bye da- spider

Up me - pick me up

Bot ah mon - batman

Peek a bah

Bee bop - flip flops

Boobie - movie

Shoeson - shoes (yes that's right just shoes)

Goggie - dog

Wowey pop- soda pop

Ha ket - chocolate

Farf-ed

Cohen was jumping on the bed tonight and he passed a bunch if gas, stopped for a quick moment and looked at me and said, "I farf-ed"

Looking so mature

Kambri was showing off her newly pierced ears at preschool this week and one of the girls in her class looked at them and told Kambri they made her look at least five or six years old.

Protection

Brian is out of town for the week and Kambri gets a bit nervous at night time. She asked tonight if Nate was tough enough to protect us. I answered that of course he was. She then asked if he could kill a guy......

It's your birthday!

The other morning Cohen climbed in bed with us and Brian said to Cohen, "tomorrow it's your birthday!", Cohen replied, "no, it's your birthday".

Buddy

We call Cohen Buddy and so he answers to that name. When we were in the hotel for our tri the other week Cohen was sitting on the floor playing and we were watching tv and a character on tv said, "watch it Buddy" Cohen turns to the tv and replies, "ok".

Sing me a song Elton!!!

My little runner!

A few weeks ago I signed Kambri up for a one mile run. She ran the entire mile! When we got to the end Kambri said, " this is great! I was made for this!"

Hugged a little too tight!

The other morning I woke Kambri and gave her a big hug. She quickly pulled away and whined "mom, you almost made me poop!"

Shoeson

A few weeks ago Cohen asked me where his shoeson were. I guess he interperates, get your shoes ON as, get your shoeson.

Dirty

Cohen scratches at my freckles and says, "ewww, dirty mom!"

My Little Pony

Kambri left her toy in the loft yesterday. I said, "Kambri, could you please pick up My Little Pony". She looked at me and said, "why do you always think that toy is yours?"

Tormado

We were getting out of the car at Fred Meyer's the other week and it was windy. Kambri looks around and says, "I hope a tormado comes. I would like to go to Muchkinland". We the explained to her that tornado's are bad and they do not take you to Munchkinland.

YAY!!!

Every time Cohen sees something that excites him he loudly yells YAY! I love it! I'm always trying to get that reaction from him,..but it has to be something special to get the yay.

Where are your teeth?

Cohen has become very good at pointing and identifying his facial features. When I ask him to point to his ears, nose or eyes he quickly does so. When I ask him where his teeth are he gives me the biggest cheesiest grin to show off all of his pearly whites.

The Big Boss

I went to pick up Kambri from primary a few weeks ago and she held up her Book of Mormon and said, "Mom, look what the big boss gave me...and he said I could keep it!". She was talking about the bishop.

The Newsium

We were on our way to visit the museum last week and Kambri said, "Mom, I'm so silly I thought it was called a use-ium, but I now know it's a newsium!"

Uh Awesome

Kambri likes the song Somebody by Kings of Leon, so it came on the radio the other day and I said, "Kambri, what is this song?" she answers in her sassy tone, "uh awesome!!!"

What a Dream...

Today I was sitting in the foyer at church with my naughty children and my friend came out with her three children as well and my friend asked, "are the kids being crazy?" I said, "yeah, Kambri's been a real nightmare today". Kambri rolls her eyes and says, "Mom, I'm a DREAM!"

Finally a Cohen Story

This morning Brian and I were sitting in our living room downstairs talking and as we were talking I kept hearing a weird sipping noise. I knew Cohen was in the kitchen so curious of what he was doing I walked into the kitchen to see him with the cup that scoops out the dog food in his hands, he was dipping it in the dog water and then trying to sip out what ever water he was able to get.

These Boots Are Made for Walkin'

Today was my sweet girl's fourth birthday. For her birthday I got her some hot pink cowboy boots. She was really excited to put them on. She put them on and began to sing, "these boots are made for walking and that's just what they'll do and one of these days these boots are gonna walk all over you". Silly girl.

Good Answer, You Get A Gold Trophy

Kambri is doing a new thing where she'll ask you a question and if you answer it the way she likes she will pretend to set something in front of you or pretends to hand you something and says, "yep, that's right and because you got the right answer, you get a GOLD TROPHY!!!"

Silly Shirt

Cohen has a shirt that has the body of a dinosaur on it and the neck of the dinosaur goes up to the neck of the child wearing it...I'm not sure if that makes sense but that's beside the point... Kambri the other day walks up to Cohen, giggles and says "Cohen, you and that freakin' silly shirt,".

Look I found a picture of the shirt!!! You've never been so lucky!

Princesses of the Week

Nathan has been trying to teach Kambri her days of the week. It never seems to stick so he gave each day of the week a princess name and guess what....it worked!!! It goes like this, Snow White, Jasmine, Ariel, Odette, Belle, Giselle and Cinderella. Ask her what day of the week it is and she knows its Cinderella.
