More funnies from my hunnies

Today's drive home was hilarious. Here is one of the conversations we had

Emma: mummy, do cats fall in love?
Me: um, well, they mate.
Emma: what's mate?
Me: they have babies together.
Maddie: how do the babies come out? Through their peanuts?
Emma: Maddie, cats don't have peanuts, silly. The babies come out of their butts.

Then I drove by roadkill (squirrel) and a crow was pecking at it. I heard Maddie say "oh my gosh oh my gosh oh my gosh what is that bird doing with that piece of poo." I said "um, eating it but it's not poo." She said "what is it?" and I said "a dead squirrel." I peeked at her face in the rearview and she was horrified! I burst out laughing and the girls asked me questions about dead animals the entire way home. They decided that cars are allowed to hit rats because they don't like the colour of rats but they can't hit any other animal. Not even crocodiles with huge mouths! What a hoot these two are!

Facebook gets all the blog love!

Ok, so I post about the girls on Facebook and I forget to post here. Must remember to blog more! Here are some more funnies from my lovelies...

Emma: I have a red spot on my tummy, a "skeeter" bite on my arm and a bruise on my leg. I'm just falling apart!

Maddie: mummy, why do I have lot's of napkins and Emma only has one? Me: because you spill a bit more than your sister. Maddie: ah pickle nuts, you're right.

Emma says "ok Mr. Brain, I need you to tell your friend Mr. Tummy to be quiet and stop eating my sister's chips."

Maddie: will we die? Emma: yes but only when we are 158 years old.

The girls are a joy to be around and are sponges; absorbing everything around them. They helped me in the garden today and they both love planting. They were patient and good listeners and were thrilled when I let them decide where to put the impatiens an begonias. They get along well, for the most part, and play together nicely. They often put on performaces and will sing to me or act out something from a show they have seen. During said performances my eyes must be on them the entire time or I hear from them! So cute!
