Funny Kids

Joseph just has to get dressed as soon as he gets up these days, he also has to have his shoes on at all times. So yesterday I was getting everyone out of bed, etc and I heard him going through his dresser. I stepped into his room and found him standing on his step stool, arms draped over the open top drawer and holding a pair of underwear in each hand.
"Joseph, do you need some help?"
"I'm tryin to pick my underwear, should I wear red or white?" He is only 3 1/2 and was referring to the color of the elastic. So my answer was red of course and he was good with that. I pulled out two pair of pants, khaki or blue jeans. He picked the blue jeans. From there we move on to the shirts. I pull out two, one is maroon with Buzz Lightyear on it and the other is just a plain red, long sleeve. He picks Buzz. So we're set right?!

10 minutes later our other 3 1/2 yr old boy gets up and has his Lightning McQueen shirt on. Joseph jumps up and runs to his room, pulls out his Lightning McQueen shirt that he wore the day before and put it on. They are only 3!

Then just last night, Albert was talking about work and said he used the work midget and everyone acted like he had just killed someone. He likes to debate HR questions with me...He says, why can't we say midget, that's what they are. What else should we call them?
Sweet, levelheaded Gabriella had the perfect answer, "By their name?"

It is never a dull moment around here. Right now I have a 15 mo old getting over a stomach virus and 3 more just starting! It is gonna be a long weekend!
