Brookie - " She is warm". (Her doll)
Lukas - "She has a brain fever". "Her temperature is hot".
Brookie - "Oh, she's colder now. She has a brain freeze".
I guess they didn't need to worry about that condition because life went on.
Two funny things I remember them saying while I've been here. Believe me, they have said MANY funny things - especially while I drive - but I can't write them down then and when we get home I forget the wording and it's not funny when I try to make it up in my own words.
Brooke: "I want a sand hamwich.".....Luke asked for a ham sandwich with cheese and that white stuff. Which, after thinking for a second, turned out to be mayonnaise. The funny thing was she tried 3 or 4 times to say it right. Each time getting more frustrated and funnier.
Lukas: "This tickles my balls". The second step in the pool I hits him in an interesting spot.
I've had a fun time with the kids these past few days. Their mom and dad come home late this evening and the kids are looking forward to having them here. I have dealt with 'sore bottom' baby Roxy - which, luckily, I met someone in CVS on Thursday and she gave me a couple of ideas. The redness is gone, but Roxy still has a couple of blisters that almost looks like Chicken Pox, but they haven't spread at all, so I'm guessing that they aren't CP. Dropping Lukas off at school each day and then picking him up has been an interesting thing. I try to keep baby Roxy awake until I drop him off - 11:40 - a challenge - and then picking him up at 2:10 means that I need to wake her if things don't work out like they do in my mind. All in all, it hasn't been as stressful as I worried about. I'm sure they have watched more TV then they needed; that they usually get to swim more than 30 minutes; that riding bikes is more fun with Mommy and Daddy and that keeping things picked up is harder with Grandma here. (She doesn't like to step on Lego's or find a gum wrapper in Roxy's mouth).
Don't ever fly Spirit/Allegiant Airlines. Story to come.
