How things have changed....

This morning Hope asked me if I watched Bug's Life when I was a little girl. I told her I didn't, and she asked "Well, then, what movies did you get in the mail when you were little?" I told her when I was little you didn't get movies in the mail; you had to go to the video rental store and rent movies. "Rent store. What the heck is a rent store??" I had CheapFlicks' movie list memorized; she doesn't even know you can go to a store to get a movie.

Things you don't hear every day....

This morning David poured a bowl of Rice Krispies for Hope and told her breakfast was ready. Since she is the world's biggest dawdler, she was still trying to get dressed. So he yelled up the stairs, "Well, get your pants on and get down here! Your cereal is getting cold!" Um, isn't cereal supposed to be cold?

Hopey then proceeded, because she can't sit still at the table, to dump that same bowl of Rice Krispies all over the carpet. My medications must be working better, because I didn't yell at all. I just went and got the dustbuster to clean it up. But seriously, what genius puts carpet in a main eating space? One more item to add to the list of things I don't want in my next house.

Well good morning to you, too....

This morning I took Joel into Naomi's room and put him on the changing table so I could change his diaper and get him dressed. Naomi was awake, but I left her in her crib till I was done with Joel. This was the conversation that went on:
Naomi: Hi!
Me: Hi Naomi
N: Hi!!
Me: Hi
N: Hi...... Hi!..... HI!..... HIIIIIIIEEEEEEEEEE!
Me: are you saying Hi to me or Joel?
N: Dole
Me: well, he isn't gonna say hi back.....
