Quirky Kids

Sam: My stomach hurts so, tonight I will need Orange Juice instead of milk.
Me:  Oh, I'm sorry Sam, I didn't know your stomach was hurting.
Sam:  Yeah, it won't be better until the end of April
(This was his way of asking for OJ instead of milk.)

Yesterday, Ray slept with a picture of the baby elephant at our zoo that I tore out of a magazine for him.

Mike and Sam went to the car wash.  When they got back Sam came inside and said, "Mommy I was FREAKING OUT in there."

Mike keeps telling Sam that he should tell me how he feels about me.  It goes something like this, "Mommy, are you feeling okay?"

Ray is elephant obsessed.  Today I bought him two little plastic elephants.  I had intended to only buy him one but then he noticed that they had a baby and a Mama.  When we left the store and got in the car he kept saying, "Mama, thank you elephants!" over and over.  Totally worth the $10 I spent on two plastic elephants.  And now he is sleeping with them too...

And when I took this picture, Ray said, "Elephants Cheese!  (He does have a stuffed elephant too; I don't make my kids use magazine clippings and hard plastic animals for their "loveys"!)

Ray is looking at the above picture saying, "Elephants and Sam!"  He still hasn't figured out how to identify himself.  To his credit sometimes we call him the wrong name too!

Quirky Daddy:  We just got the outside Christmas lights down this week!

  1. The car wash story is hilarious. Also cool that Ray is getting into elephants. Zetta is still partial to brown bears.

  2. Cousin B and Ray need to get together and share elephant stories.
