Beware: this underwear may leak without warning

We're eating dinner the other night and Addison stands up in her chair. I say "Why are you standing?"

"My chair is wet."

sigh. "WHY is your chair wet? Did you spill your drink?"

"No."

noticing that her shorts have a particular wet pattern, "Did you pee in your pants?"

"No. My underwear just leaked"

Is booger a bad word?

Ah, Addison.

We went out to dinner tonight and while we were waiting for our food, Mark and Addison start a conversation.
Addison: "You're a crazy head!"
Mark: "No, you are a silly head!"
Addison: "You are a booger head!"
Mark (teasing): "oooo! You said a bad word!"
Addison (confused): "No I didn't."
Mark: "You said booger."
Addison: "Booger's not a bad word. It's a yummy word!"

mmmm...yummy.

Silence is Golden . . .but the things kids say are priceless

Today the girls and I went to see "Ramona and Beezus". It was REALLY good! Addison is a lot like Ramona, kind of a super sweet, fun loving, 'bull in a china shop' ;)

There is a scene in the movie, where the parents are under a lot of stress & everything is going wrong. The sisters get into a fight, with Beezus storming off after telling Ramona that she ruins everything she touches. Ramona goes to feed the cat (who is very old) and finds that he's passed away in his bed. A very tense and emotional scene.

Everyone in the theater is quiet, you can hear the sniffles. I look at Caroline and she has her hand over her face, sobbing. I'm crying now and as I put my arm around Caroline to pull her closer, Addison gets right up in my face and says at the top of her lungs "DID THE CAT DIE?! JUST LIKE L.D. DIED, RIGHT MOM?!

Gotta love her!
