Kids Are Entertainment

The Boy:
1.) A couple of days ago I set the kids up for a picnic lunch on our front walkway. I hadn't served the food yet, but when I brought the food outside Nathan sitting happily in the sun and chewing away on... something. I cringed. "Nathan, what are you eating" Kaeley piped in, as always, "Oh, Mommy, he's eating gum he found on the wall." Yeah. And then the boy had the nerve to get angry with me after I threw it away!

2.) Yesterday, as my boy was dressed up all handsome for Easter, he was sitting in his car seat. He started chattering about his window. I finally understood him to say, "Mommy, you get dat off my window, peeze?" I looked back to see what he was talking about and he was fiddling with something slimy and large that was smashed onto the window. I knew instantly what it was, but he couldn't find the words to tell me what it was. I asked, "Nathan, where did you find it?" He answered, "Um, in my nose." Yep. When I pitched a fit about that being disgusting he tried to get it off the window to put it back in his nose.

The Girls:
1.) I had to find a spot in the apartment for Nathan's little bike. I cleared out a spot in Kaeley's closet. This morning I walk into the girls' bedroom to find... nothing. The girls were no where to be seen, but I could hear Kaeley quietly chanting out numbers, or something. I open up the closet to find Alynna standing next to the bike, which Kaeley is pretending to ride. It wasn't as gross as Nathan's experiences, but it was amusing to see Kaeley on a stationary bike just as happy as could be. It turns out she's started a detective club for girls. Later Nathan was initiated into the club and I haven't heard a word of it since.
