You and Emily are asking me to play on your Leap Pads and I've told you no.  I told you two earlier that I was going to be working and that you both needed to find something fun to do.  Once I told you no about the Leap Pads you both whined at me and I said, "go in the playroom and find something to play with.  If you can't find anything in there that you want to play with then I will just sell all of it at the garage sale or give them to little kids that don't have anything to play with.   Then you two will be crying about how you have nothing to play with."  You were standing right next to me (Emily had gone away to find something to do) and you said, "no I won't.  If you give away all of the toys, I will play on my Leap Pad!!"

In the end, thankfully, you did come up with something other than your Leap Pad to play with. ;)

Today we went to the grocery store and we got one of the car baskets.  Once y'all were settled inside and we were ready to go, you said, "let's do this!!!"

As we were driving you asked me, "What's that?"  I didn't know what you were referring to since you were behind me so I asked, "what?"  Your reply, "What's that that I'm pointing at with my foot!"

Today I referred to Emily as a Crabopolis because she was being grumpy and crabby.  You were very offended for her and told me, "Don't call her a crabopolis!"  When I asked you what I should call her, you told me, "Emily Rose!"

Lately you have been asking me, "Is this today or tomorrow?"  Or sometimes you will simply ask, "is this today?"

This morning, Emily asked me if she could have more tea.  When I answered, yes, you exclaimed excitedly - "Emily, Mama will give you more tea!"

Mama: Everett, get in your chair please so we can go. (car seat)
Everett: No, I'm not ready yet.
Mama: Well, when will you be ready?!
Everett: 8 o'clock

...sigh...

I just finished singing, "This Land Is Your Land" and you lifted your head off my shoulder to say, "YOU and me?!"  (last line - this land was made for you and me…)  I said, "yes."  Then you said, "I thought it was made for me and Mimi!"  Clearly Mimi has sung you that song more recently.  haha
