random Friday...

Corinn falls asleep any time, anywhere!
but especially in the car...5 minutes after pulling off, i can expect 2 look in the rear view & spot her snoring

this also happens on the bus almost every afternoon...last week, no1 woke her up!

it wasn't until the daycare did a roll call that they realized she was missing...Miss Ashley asked Gabby, "did Corinn go 2 school 2day?"
Gab says, "yeah, she was on the bus."
they quickly called the bus driver & she brought Corinn back b4 she even realized what was going on

& on the way home that evening, we talked about how from now on, every1 is 2 make sure their siblings r accounted 4 when they arrive at school/daycare every day ;0)

Jaden has this new thing...he likes 2 use quotation marks when speaking

meaning, he'll put his fingers in the air & do the little gesture like he's putting the word he's using in quotes...he puts a lil emphasis on the word too

recently, he's asked, "so tell me, what do u do at a fall 'festival'?"
or, "Ma, what exactly is a 'tack'?"

it cracks me up every time!

Corinn is a cleaning fool!

she loves 2 help out around the house & while i was doing the dishes this past weekend, i put her 2 work sweeping the floors & wiping down the table & counters

as she was sweeping, she says,
"dirt makes flowers grow Mama - cause i've got a book about it."
"i'm gonna sweep it up tho - we don't want flowers growing in here!"

then, as she's wiping down the table, she says,
"wow, what a messy family!"

~lol~

last week, there were 3 nites in a row where what we had 4 dinner, wasn't exactly on Gabrielle's favorites list

chicken stir fry
spaghetti (i know, she's weird!)
salmon cakes

on the 3rd nite, she was fed up...asking, "when will we have a dinner that i like again?!"

i reminded her that just a year or 2 ago, she loved salmon cakes!

her response was, "well now, i'd rather drink toilet water!"

when my mom went along with Corinn on her field trip on Monday, the mother of a little boy in Corinn's class introduced herself

she said that her son, Ethan, came home from his 1st day in kindergarten & told her, "there's a very nice girl in my class that's my new girlfriend...she has a little bit darker skin than me, but i think u'll really like her!"

too sweet!

-----

on the weekends, i let my girls have a cup of coffee with me
~gasp~

well, it's actually 1/2 coffee, 1/2 milk...& it's way better than if they were allowed sodas all week long (we don't keep soda in the house)

this past Saturday, the girls were having their coffee at the dining room table (Jaden is so not interested) & Corinn says, "Mama, u're an AWESOME coffee cooker!"

well dear, i do try!
;0)

lastly, i had 2 share this...u know i've gotta do 1 every season now! & hey, in this 1, my hair actually looks pretty similar 2 what i've really got goin on right now! ~lol~
