Quotes from 2013




It's almost the end of the year! I had put a quote of Everly's up on Facebook today and it made me realize I should track down all the quotes that the kids' said this year. Thankfully, Facebook makes that easy.

Now I'm sure I don't have all of the quotes but this is a decent batch. Have fun reading.


Me - “Everly you need to be nice.” 
Everly - “No, I’m Everly!”

Logan just told me that the ScoobyDoo series is like the Bible: each episode is part of a whole. Great that he understands the Bible works like that, weird that he relates it to ScoobyDoo

“Who ordered the frappuccino?” - The kids were apparently playing "Starbucks"

“Dad when I was sleeping, Logan took my sock off.” – Ransom

“Dad, I will call you back. I really love you Dad. I’ll call you back, see you soon.” – Everly pretending to talk to Justin on her pretend phone.

Everly was having one of her fits (a pouty one; not a yelling one) and I told her she was being like Ransom. She must have misheard me and said, “ No, I look like Mommy!”

“I’m tired. I go sleep in the car. I can’t handle sugar.” – Everly

“I want tortillas, and bread, and chips. That’s all.” – Everly’s lunch request.

“My nose is rotten.” – Logan describing what I assume is a raw nose from a cold.

“Mom, I see frosting!” – Everly upon seeing frost.

“Mom, why are you putting on makeup? We aren’t going anywhere!” – Everly

Me – “You have hiccups.”
Everly  - “Yeah... I got them from Target.
Me – “Oh, I didn’t know you could get hiccups from Target."
Everly – “Yes… and Red Robin, and McDonalds, and the zoo…"

Merry and Bright



Lots of Christmas activity here! I decided to do an Advent calendar (tree) this year and base it on activities instead of treats. Granted some of those activities are treat related like "eat candy canes". The kids have been loving it and the race downstairs to look at the tag for the day.


One such activity was to take Christmas pictures and so we did. It actually was probably not the best activity considering how horrible the whole photo shoot went with Verity not sitting still and Everly suddenly forgetting how to smile. Somehow in the midst of all that, we got a few good pictures.

Here they are...
