On the Record

As has been the case for awhile, Harper talks way too well / much for his age.  Some things overheard the past few weeks:

-- After his teacher asked him to pick something up, "Miss Maegan, I did not bring my listening ears today."

-- In the car, randomly -- "Mom, I can't wait for my penis to grow big." I could do an entire blog about what Harper says about his penis, but I will refrain.

-- Also in the car, randomly -- "Did you know that a circle does not have any sides."  We cover lots of different topics in the car.

-- Harper's old teacher just had a baby and she brought the baby by school to say hi to the kids.  Harper asked her how the baby got out of her tummy and commented that she had her baby out now but when was she going to put it back in?

This kid.  I'm not sure what I'm going to do with him.

Paprazzi?

We have had a lot of storms this week, which has been nice.  One thing I really miss about Kansas is the thunderstorms.  Suffice to say, I probably hear thunder in Utah about five times a year.

The other night Helena was standing upstairs looking out our bedroom window watching the rain.  I was in the bathroom negotiating with Harper about getting out of the bathtub and Helena screams, "Mom! I think someone is taking my picture!"

"What? Someone is taking your picture?" I yell back.  What in the world is she talking about?  Then I hear the thunder.  Oh.  Funny.

"Helena, that's the flash of lightning from the storm.  Nobody is taking your picture, silly!"

Helena Quote of the Week

First thing in the morning, yelling to us from the bathroom as we're eating breakfast in the kitchen:

"Oh, MAN!  Come on guys...why isn't there any toilet paper in here??!!"

What kind of a ship are we running anyway?
