Jesus Loves You!

As most of you know, we are not a super religious family, but we make it a point to talk about religion to the girls. I think it's important that we bring them up Catholic like we were, but when they get older, we expect them to make their own decision on what if any religion to practice/follow.

I walked into the girls room where they had decided to empty all of their toys from their toy organizer. I stood and the door and sighed as I ran my hands down my face. Charlie walked next to me, rubbed my leg, and said, "It's okay mommy, Jesus loves you."


Can't help but laugh!

Teaching my Toddler to make her bed

After mastering, sort of, bed making, I expect the girls to make their bed every morning. But on Tuesday this week, I changed all of the sheets, and made the beds afterward. The girls kept messing up the bed, and I finally had engough.

I demanded that they make their bed, and Charlie responded by saying "Five Dollars Please," as she extended her hand.

Please give me patience please.

I'm NAKED!

The girls were having a blast in the tub on Friday, and after 20 minutes I decided it was time for them to get out before they turned into shriveled up prunes. when I walked in, they knew I was coming for them but they were having so much fun that Lucy cried, "Get out, I'm naked!"

It worked, I gave them 5 more minutes.

Naked Man

We don't censor our children very much, but sex is really not a topic I can dance around with 3 year olds. So when there is a sex, or just racy scene, we do the whole, "cover your eyes..."

Tonight we had a babysitter, tia Lizzy. Well, Charlie had taken a late nap, so when we got home she was wide awake while Lucy was resting so peacefully. I decided to take Charlie with me to drop off Lizzy back home. During the drive, Lizzy proceeded to tell me that there was an actor on TV without his shirt and that Charlie made her cove her eyes.

Charlie: "Cover your eyes Lizzy"
Lizzy: "why? I'm a big girl"
Charlie: "oh, Okay"

Then I ask

Mom: "Charlie, you saw a naked man on TV?"
Charlie: "uh-hu" (in a quite, I think I'm in trouble voice)
Mom: "why, you know better, you are supposed to cover you eyes"
Charlie: "mom, Lizzy tricked me"

Ah, according to Charlie she was tricked into checking out the topless man on TV, I think not, but just proves that a 3 year old is never wrong or at fault.....

Love me girls.

Pee Pee

Lucy woke up this morning and the first thing out of her mouth was, "daddy pee pee on me, change me mommy." ROFL, that's a funny one Lucy, but I think not.

Empathy

The girls were watching Pinocchio for the first time at Grandma's house. After the movie was over, I walked over to Lucy, who has tears streaming down her face. When I held her she said "he's a boy Mommy, he's daddy loves him."
