foggy fall morning...

Easton:

"Mom, it is really soggy out here and my breath is smoking."

I just remembered this one...

a few months ago Easton's friend asked him if he could have a drink of his water and Easton said he didn't want to share because the straw "has his guts on it."

Derek is soooooo funny!

char: (can never make a decision and asking for input) "Honey, what would you do if you were me?
derek: "well, I would be indecisive."

another example...

char: "when was the first time you went on an airplane?"
derek: "I think it was in high school with my neighbor."
char: "where did you go?"
derek: "Um, into the sky."

Easton: "Mom, come and look what your son did."

Me: I am thinking oh crap. walking into my room to find... that Easton unloaded all the clothes out of the dryer form me and put them on my bed.
"Wow!"

Easton: "He did the laondry for you!" he even cleaned out the lint tray!

p.s. a 4-year old who does laundry is pretty amazing I must say, but when did "my son" start speaking in 3rd person???

After talking with Easton for a few minutes about death, the afterlife and so forth he paused in thought. A few seconds later he said this:

"Are we going to die before we have another baby?"

To which I replied:

"I hope not!"

"Anybody who doesn't believe in miracles doesn't know our family."

Words to live by:
While we were making sugar cookies I gave Easton the extra dough to eat and he said "Hey dad, this is really good- it's made out of cookies."

"When kids are busy doing something good- they won't be doing anything bad."
My PAPA

I asked Easton what the best part of the Halloween party was, and without hesitation he replied: "Me."

While talking to my sister Melanie on the phone I said, "I am jealous that you get to go to Seattle." Mel replied: "I am jealous of myself." ha! ha!

"Mormon Women are like onions. They have lots of layers."

When Easton was finished getting a cavity filled at the Dentist today, he came out and went over to this little boy he had been playing with in the waiting area and said... "Feel this (pointing to his numb cheek) it feels really weird."

The other little boy out his hand on Eastons face and said...
"Yeah, that feels weird."

At dinner we asked Easton if he knew who the Presedent of the United States was...

he said:

"President Hinkley."
