the allen family: First Snow

So, I'm a little (well...a lot) behind on my blogging....

Our first snow was actually a few weeks ago before Thanksgiving, and the kids were absolutely thrilled !!

Quoteable Kids!!

1-9-10: While enjoying Cooper's Birthday Brunch at IHOP yesterday, Danny and I got a good chuckle when Cooper said he wanted to try the "butter King Kong" syrup...more commonly known as butter pecan!!

2009: The very first thing Shae asks when she wakes up in the morning is- "Can I watch Foo-vie and hab snacks?" Her favorite movie treats (though to her dismay she does NOT get first thing in the AM!) are "pah-corn" and "lick-or-lish"

10-25-09: I got the kids some new vitamins that were on sale; Cooper refuses to eat them, saying "they taste like hippos!!"

10-20-09: At the corn maze, when it was Cooper's turn to be the leader, he came to a fork in the path and decisively announced, "let's split up, gang!!" We were cracking up!

10-20-09: As we were looking at a picture of the ariel view of the corn maze, Danny explained that it was shaped like a dinosaur! Shae in particular became a little scared, thinking there was a dinosaur IN the maze, so Danny reassured her, explaining that dinosaurs are extinct. Cooper then inquired "Daddy, why do they stink?" HA!!!

9-24-09: After passing by a girl blowing a cloud of cigarette smoke out of her mouth, Shae exclaimed "THAT girl has a REALLY HOT MOUTH!"

June 2009, every Sunday!

Mom or Dad: "Shae, what did you learn in nursery today?"

Shae: "I have snacks in ursey!"

7-3-09: in the van en route to OHIO for Bryan's wedding, we must have passed by a skunk, and Cooper says "EEeewww!! It smells like there's a giraffe in our van!!"

Can't remember when this one started: "No I am'nt!!" (translation= am-int: Jadanese conjunction for "am not") Cooper and Shae have followed in his great example as well!!

June 09

Shae calls sunscreen "SCUM SCREAM"

Summer 08

Cooper calls the theater "Few-dah"

Aug 09

Shae keeps running in the bathroom while Cooper is going potty, so I tell her, stay out so Cooper can have some privacy...she says "Cooper have pirate teeth?" HA!!

since Shae has been able to talk, she says "lock-ah-lahsh" for washcloth!

August 16, 2009: After bathing the kids, I hear Danny telling Cooper, "Leave your private parts alone!" Then, Shae pipes in: "Pirate Parts says AAaarrgghhh!!" LOVE IT!!

August 09: The kids think it is okay to burp as long as they say "excuse me." However, burping has been out of control lately, so I told them it is better manners if they keep their mouth closed when they burp. Shae's new favorite thing to tell me is, "Mommy, I burp with my mouth closed!" Lovely.

July 09: Shae calls me in while she is on the potty: "Eeewww. I have ri-a-dea. (diahrrea)" Nice.
