Time for another edition of “Kids Say”…including Kingston’s first contribution.

Me–“I want chili”
Liam–“What’s chili?”
Me–“It has tomatoes, beans, and hamburger.”
Liam–“Oh! I LOVE chili!”
Me–“You do?”
Liam–“Oh wait, no…it was jello.”


Liam was working on a Lego creation. When it broke he said “well this is awkward.”



Me–“Kai, were you scared to go to the doctor?”
Kai–“yeah, I thought she was going to shot me.”




A convertible with its top down drove by. Kai said “that car had no toppings.”




Liam–“Is Sleeping Beauty the princess that sleeps a lot?”
Me–“Yes”
Liam–“So does that mean that she’s your favorite princess?”
***
Later, as I’m telling don about this conversation, I finished by saying
“Liam knows my priorities.”
Liam–“yes I do!…………what does that mean?”




Liam asked me to turn on the cold air when I started the van. It was a warm day so it was blowing hot air.
Liam–“Hey! This is hot heat! I wanted cold heat!”



Kingston–“Mommy, you are pretty.”
Me–“Aww, thank you Kingston.”
2 seconds later…
Kingston pointed to a rusted window frame and said “Pretty!!”

(It’s a good thing he has a cute smile!)

Last week was rough. Evangeline was extremely clingy and crabby for 4 days straight. After I found a huge lump on her neck, I decided to take her to the doctor. Strep throat. While it’s not as common, babies can get strep 🙁 Because of the size of her lymph node, she was also tested for TB and had her blood checked. Thankfully, the tests came back fine and she was back to health after she got some antibiotics in her system. 
Since she was feeling better and she looked like a little doll baby, I took her out on the deck to take some pictures. Backlight is so tricky! Good thing I have a cute subject to work with.

If you’re around her for any length of time, she will likely make this face. Don pointed out that it looks like she’s taking a “selfie” which makes this picture even more funny.

I hope we’re done with strep throat and doctor visits for a while! But she sure was cute waiting for the doctor today.
