Aubrey’s Cake Confession

by

Last night the girls and I made a chocolate layer cake, just because we could. They ate a really healthy dinner and were both allowed to have a small slice afterward. This morning Aubrey climbed in bed with me REALLY early, before 6am, not sure exactly of the hour but it was still dark outside. I was sleeping with my earplugs in but heard a muffled something about Emma eating “that chocolate cake.” I think I grunted and rolled over to go back to sleep.

After dinner tonight, Aubrey came running out of the bathroom and said, “Momma, it was me that ate that chocolate cake, I was just lying to you.”
Me: (trying to remember what exactly she was talking about) Oh.
Aubrey: It wasn’t Emma, Momma. It wasn’t! It was just me and I ate it with my hand and I’m very sorry.

Good to know if I’m not smart enough to catch her, she at least has a conscience!

Anyone know of a good military PRE-school?

I was feeding the girls dinner really early today, because they woke up from naps REALLY crabby.
Aubrey (4) and Emma (3) were wrestling in the floor, as usual and I called them to come eat….
Emma (to Aubrey): I’m going to eat my dinner, PUNK!
Aubrey: MOMMMM-MAAA!
Me: *Sigh* Emma, what did you say?
Emma(with a completely straight face): I’m going to eat my dinner, punk.
Me: What does that mean?
Emma: I’m going to eat my dinner.
Me: Punk doesn’t sound very nice, where did you learn that word?
Emma: At my ‘kool.

So….anybody know of a good military PRE-school? Apparently ours is teaching all manner of slang…

Aubrey Said: Ballet

by

Aubrey and Emma went to ballet class today. Aubrey has been before but today was Emma’s first class. At dinner tonight, Aubrey said, “Momma, at ballet class today no one was wearing anty panthies.”
Me: How do you know that?
Aubrey: Cause I didn’t see any sticking out of their leo-tarts.

Happy Father’s Day

by

During bath time tonight Aubrey asked some very pressing questions about her Daddy.
“Mommy, when you marry my Daddy, he have hairy armpits or did him shave them?”
Me: I think they were probably hairy.
Aubrey: Did everyone say, “Ewwww, GROSS! Him have hairy armpits?”
Me: Mmm, nope. I don’t think so, I don’t remember anybody saying that.
Aubrey: (VERY disappointed) Oh.

Happy Father’s Day to all the Dad’s out there, regardless if you shave your pits or not!
