Kids say the Funniest Things

Kids are notorious for saying the funniest things and mine are no exception to the rule.

So I am going to start posting weekly their comments before they have a chance to escape my mind. I am gong to be doing a lot more writing and blogging in the near future, (or at least that is my goal) because this great site the blurb was brought to my attention.

I will start with Paxton. Since he doesn't say that much when he does speak he has every one's attention.
Lately when Brenna has been getting to our home in the morning to watch the kids, Paxton looks at me and says go and point for the door and follows me there and gives me my hug and kiss goodbye.

Also he has become obsessed with this little boy Jake who is in nursery with him and comes over to play. Jake sadly is moving to Utah in December and we are not sure how the Paxman will handle this one. First off he has made up his own sign for Jake in sign language. This is done by making the same sign as Mommy or Daddy but Jakeis in the middle of his face. Whenever we are saying prayers he signs Jake as well as says hisname as to remind us to bless Jake every night in our prayers. He is also shoe crazy (man he is my little clone) he loves his shoes and loves to wear them. Bless the poor soul who doesn't know the sign for shoes because is Paxton doesn't have his on he is making the sign, which is banging the thumb side of your fists together.
Max a while ago told Trent and I that he needed a motorcycle with two helmets, we asked why two helmets and he said one for him and one for his wife, (who I was recently told by him was now Ellie, he is going to work for his dad and she is going to stay at home with their 100 kids) he also needs a house, a big bed, a couch and a lamp and that will be all.
I drove up to our friend the Johnson's house to pick up a DVD with Mika in the car and she randomly said that she would be able to Trick or Treat in this neighborhood again because it would remind her of the Johnson's who are moving to Utah in December. This is the true drama of a girl though because is just got better, she went on to say that Christmas was coming so fast and who were we going to eat Christmas Dinner with this year because the Johnson's are moving. The irony of this is we have never eaten Christmas Dinner with the Johnson's.
This has been the comments that I can remember right now. i am going to attempt to write them down and blog them firstly for my posterity and secondly for your amusement.
