Well, I guess it's ok then
K: Boogers taste good to me.
Me: You aren't supposed to pick your nose.
K: I just like to eat them.

Growing up in a modern world
Jamie was driving her shopping cart around the downstairs.
J: "I need to find Chuck E. Cheese!"
K: "You have a map!"
J: "No, I don't have GPS!"

By jove, I think she's got it!
This whole thing happens while I'm in the shower.
Katie comes running in butt naked.
"I went pee pee in the potty, Mama!"
"Good job!"
"I get M a M!"
She runs off with the cup of M&M's.
A couple minutes later, she comes running back in, still naked.
"I did a pooper in the potty, Mama!"
"Great job!"
"You need to wipe me, Mama!"
"Can you try to wipe yourself?"
"OK."
She runs off.
A couple minutes later, she runs back in, still naked, carrying a piece of toilet paper.
"I wiped myself real good, Mama!"
"Great job! Now can you go get dressed?"
"OK!"

Or maybe a close relative
We were at Barnes & Noble today, where there was a big display of Curious George dolls. Katie walked over to them and got all excited.
"Look Mama!"
"Who is that?"
"It's George Bush!"

I'm going to have to find her one
Katie shuffles off crying about something inane. My dad calls out to her to put a lid on it. From the other room, snuffling, "I don't have a lid!"

Isn't she a little young for this?
"Mama, how do they make horses?"

At least I'm still young and smart
On the way to preschool this morning, I was informed that one time, when Daddy took Jamie to school, he opened the wrong back door in the drop-off line. I think I need to work a little more on this "no tattling" thing. After the girls spent a few minutes collaborating each others stories, they started to speculate on WHY Daddy would do such a thing.
Apparently, it's because he's old. Old and forgetful.
I wonder what they say about me when I'm not around?

It comes from Sonic, too
Last night, we had chicken for dinner. Jamie proudly told me, "Chicken comes from chickens!"
So I asked her where beef comes from.
"Cows!"
And pork?
"Pigs!"
What about hamburger?
And Katie yelled, "McDonalds!"

For once, her sister wasn't even butting her nose into anything
"Don't worry 'bout me, worry 'bout you."

Copycat
Things Katie is learning from Jamie:
"That makes me angry!"
She threw herself on the floor and threw a fake tantrum to do what Jamie does.
