I am a 30 something stay at home mom, by title only. I am always taking somebody somewhere! Between soccer, scouts, football, piano, activity days, a primary calling, the never ending laundry, homework, visiting teaching, family home evenings, institute class, and an occasional lunch out with my husband my life is crazy. My goal is to raise happy, healthy kids, who have strong testimonies of our Savior Jesus Christ. If I get a hot meal on the table at dinner time a few nights a week I consider it a miracle!
**Mom, do you think old people are just cute as a button?
**These snow pants make my panties shrink
**My pinky toe smells weird. In fact, my whole foot smells weird!
**Mom, when I turn 18, will I be an old cripple?
**She was wrestling with Colton and I heard her yell "bring it on, butterball"
**At lunch in Leavenworth, we were talking about the small portions. A few minutes later Kennedy says, "this is a small lunch, indeed!"
**We were at the grocery store and she was riding in the cart. Whitley was trying to get in with her and she was freaking out. Landon asked her why Whit couldn't get in with her and she said "because I have space issues!"
**I told Kennedy to roll up her sleeves so that she didn't get them in her food. She said, "No because then I'll look like an Irish leprechaun"
**"Dad, you don't respect my cultures!" "What does that mean?" "It means you don't respect me as your boss!"
**Kennedy just told me that if she had medium brown skin and a black mole on her upper lip, she'd be the most beautiful girl in the world!
**She was trying to tickle my feet, and I kept moving them and she said "just take it like a man-I want to year you laugh"
**We were driving home from gymnastics, and talking about Whitley's upcomgin meet, and out of nowhere Kennedy yells from the back seat "Hey mom, can babies crush bananas?"
**She was helping Colton pull his boots off, and they wouldn't come off. She was leaning back and pulling as hard as she could and she yelled "I'll never give up on you, buddy"
**At breakfast this morning, after taking a big swig of milk, Kennedy declared "milk is my passion"
**She came to me in the middle of the night, sort of whimpering, and said "mom, I'm almost crying".
**Today she called Whitley a desperate peanut thrower!
And they are even the brown "boring" ones. My kids aren't so bad anymore, but there was a time when a fresh box of Spongebob/princess/hello kitty/blue's clues/spiderman bandaids meant that there were going to be several new "owies" in the immediate future.
PS I answered your comment on my blog, but I thought that I'd repeat myself in case you missed it- I would be happy to ship you some caramels, and I am very sorry that your trip was too short and I didn't get to see you and hand you some personally- but I totally get how crazy vacations are, and how you get pulled in a million directions.
Addie is totally the same way...holy hypochondriac with bandaids. That is hilarious. And by the way, thanks for the "dwarf" comment. Like your a GIANT!!! butthead
amy - so what kind and how much? just e-mail me and let me know and send me your address and I'll get them to you- I have no idea what shipping is to Washington, so you can just send me a check after the fact.

You are soo awesome! I'd love to have some caramels. Just tell me how much, and I'll send you a check and get you my address! Thanks again

Her and Lauren would be great 'nurse' buddies. BTW I'm enjoying a caramel as we speak.
Rachel, that was just plain mean! There's not alot I wouldn't do for one of Kirstens' caramels!
Why would she want to cover one of those gorgeous eyes? That said, band-aids really do fix all problems.

That is too funny. I remember a couple of my nephews always sporting band-aids for some random reason but they were like ... two years old!
Oh my goodness! I thought she had done something serious. . .what a crack-up. I don't know what it is about band-aids but they sure do love them.
I love it. Nothing like Band Aids to fix an eye problem. I guess.
Your blog just keeps getting cuter & cuter Amy! I can't keep up with people like you :)
love that so many are on her eye...this is the reason we DON't have or buy bandaids around these parts
