Joey Says the funniest things...

Saturday 9/24/11

Driving in the car, the whole family had been out and about running errands and had lunch. On the way home Josephine says "oh damn it". Steve and I look at each other and smirk. I had just said this the day before and she had repeated it so neither of us were surprised when it came back out the next day.
We tried to let it go, but after she said it 3 times I said "Joey, do you even know what that means?" To which she replies "it means your frustrated."
What a smart little girl!

Wednesday 9/28/11

Steve was getting ready this morning and asked Joey for kiss before he left. She says to him "Daddy where are you going?"
Steve: "To work"
Joey: "Why" (this is the main question asked right now)
Me: "Daddy has to go to work to make money so that we can go to Mickey's house this weekend"
Joey: "Oh, ok" and as Steve is walking out the door she throws in "Daddy, got some money for me and Mommy too, ok!"
Oh if it were only that easy!

Wednesday 9/28/11

It is still warm and humid here this time of year. It is about 70 (feels a bit warmer) when we leave the house in the morning and gets up to 78 or so during the day. Josephine is still wearing tank tops and sun dresses daily unless I fight with her to put something else on. This morning she had a tank dress on and I was trying to get her to put a sweater on, of course she said "no, I don't want it". Since it is new and I just bought it, I asked "Do you not like it for today or do you not like it at all?" So you looks at me walks away and says "I don't like today, tomorrow or ever!"
Well ok, 3 going on 13 here at our house.

Spring Break & Easter

Now that Joey goes to school we are subject to the school calendar for traveling. We just got back from a very nice week in Hilton Head with my father (Pop-pop). We had beautiful weather while we were there, we hit the beach all but one day! In addition to beach time we also got to play with our cousins, shop, eat, golf and hunt for Easter eggs!
I have uploaded some of the pictures highlighting the vacation. I took over 800 so appreciate the cut back that I did for the album. I know that some of the pictures seem similar, but when you have such a fantastic subject it is hard not to go camera crazy.
Pictures can be viewed on the right side of the blog or at this link.

How to make rainbow

On the short drive home from school today Josephine and I had such a great conversation. I am amazed daily on how bright my little girl is and how much she really takes in.
The sky was overcast and I was asking Joey if she thought it was going to rain...here is how the conversation went:

Me: Do you think it will rain?
JK: And make a rainbow?
Me: I don't know, but you need rain and sunshine to make a rainbow in the sky.
JK: Rain is water.
Me: Yes, you are correct!
JK: We can put water in our hands and throw it into the sky.
Me: That is a great idea.

What an amazing little girl!
