Kids say.....

the funniest things! And my sister keeps telling me that these are the kind of things I need to include on my blog, so here goes...

• I pulled up to the gas station today, handed the girl my debit card and told her what I wanted. Jacob, who thanks to Dora and Diego is obsessed with the Spanish word for everything, asked me if "$20 regular" was the Spanish word for gas...
• Right now, Jacob's world revolves around the fact that he gets to go to kindergarten this fall. One day I got turned around on my way to Jennifer's new shop and said "Darn it, I don't know where I am going." Jacob asked me if I had gone to kindergarten when I was 5 and learned the right path, and I absentmindedly answered yes. At this point he said "So what happened, you went home from school, went crazy and it fell out of your head?"
• Last night at Valerie's, Austin fell and hurt his wrist, and we thought for a few minutes that he needed to go to the hospital. After we determined he was okay and were headed for home, I got teary in the car about Austin being hurt. Jacob asked me why I was crying, and I explained to him that I was sad Austin fell. He got very serious and said, "Mom, what do I always tell you when you cry? You need to calm down." Hmmmm Brian, I wonder where he got that idea from.......
• Austin is starting to jabber a lot, and while he is not quite as prolific in the comedy department as his big brother, he has added a new phrase to his vocabulary this week: Rotten Turd. -----Please bear in mind he is deep in the throes of the terrible twos and is (most of the time) called this completely out of love! :)
