Aubrey: Mommy…how do babies get in your tummy?
Me: We’ll talk about it later Aubrey. It’s a really long story.

On the long haul from Charleston to Alabamer we watched Shrek 2 about 5 times. At the end of the movie Puss in Boots sings Livin’ La Vida Loca. HERE are Aubrey’s words, Emma was actually singing it correctly until Aubrey “taught” her the right words (“Repeat after ME, Emma…):

I’m back people! Had to take a brief blogging hiatus to get my younger brother married off to what is most definitely his better half, and spent most of this week working on revisions and new material for the book. But tonight AND tomorrow morning are going to be devoted to the catching up the blog! I hope you missed us! I missed you!
At bedtime tonight I was trying to listen to Emma tell a story, while Aubrey made miscellaneous background noises.
Emma: Eh-body BE quiet! You hear my boice? BE QUI-ET!
Aubrey continued to make random sounds.
Me: Aubrey you are too loud, I can’t hear Emma’s story.
Aubrey: Ack-shully…it’s my iguana.
FYI, we don’t have any pets.
