"Butt Holes"

The yard is getting more undulating and the kids like to fill the little holes with water. Because we live in WA and the water table is so high (that's my guess anyway), the water doesn't drain very well. So they fill up the holes and stomp around in them and make a muddy mess. This practice of course makes the holes a little deeper. 



The other day I came out and saw Lydia and Henry sitting in the holes then moving from hole to hole saying, "Henry! Come sit in my butthole!" Then Henry, "Lydia, you need to try my butthole! It's a good one!" 

I had a good laugh and we renamed the holes "Butt Pits". Hopefully the neighbors won't call CPS...

I Changed My Mind

Henry walks over to Adam with his hands cupped like he's holding a bowl.
Henry: Aaaaoooomm. [He motions like he is eating something from what he is holding]
Henry: Dada, I changed my mind. I put a new mind in my mouth and here's my old mind. Please hold my mind so I don't lose it.
Adam: Ooohh, Okay. [Adam takes Henry's mind carefully and holds it in his hands.]
Adam: Where should we put it?
Henry: I don't know.
Adam: Let's put it where Peter can't get it. How about up on the piano.
Henry: Yeah! Please put my mind on the piano where Peter won't get it.

Adam walks over and puts Henry's old mind with his rock collection where he won't lose it.

Swan Princess

Lydia as she dumps over a hundred cookie cutters on Adam: "You need water because you're the swan princess."
