Top 5 Saturday Laughs

I am feeling very reflective and thankful today.  I am thankful that I have the opportunity to blog about my family and the friends that I have met because of this.  I am especially thankful for my friends and family that make the Top 5 Saturday Laughs possible every week.  So before I go and get weepy (I do this on occasion) I will go ahead and post the true topic of the week.

5.  Claire has super sensitive skin as you can imagine from a red-head.  She had a rash under her eyes and we were advised to put vaseline on the skin to help the rash heal.  It worked wonders and we have continued to make that part of our night ritual.  Lately, whenever I put the vaseline on her eyes, she tells me, "Mom I can't smile with this lotion on my eyes."  So we wipe it in a little better and she busts out a big ol' one tooth smile.

4.  Natalie learned how to give those juicy open mouthed baby kisses this week.  Not only does she give these sloppy kisses, but lets out an excited "HA" afterwards.  She must know that they are funny too.

3. If you saw my previous post last weekend, we went to Trunk or Treat with my best friend Jen and her girls.  Claire and Addison absolutely love playing together.  After Claire's potty accident we decided it was time to go and Addison didn't want to leave all the fun.  Claire felt the need to explain that "I had an axcient (accident) and went pee on my costume so we have to leave."  I couldn't help but laugh at her candid response.

2.  Natalie has been saying lots of "Ma-Ma" and "Da-Da" this week.  She uses them for the right parent too.  She loves it when we get excited about it and squeals in delight.  She is such a little ham already!

1.  Before I can get to this laugh, I have to give a little background information.  Ryan's sister has two horses, Love and Cass.  Claire is obsessed with them and every other horse that she ever sees is named either Love or Cass.  Now for the laugh:  It was bedtime and I told Claire, "Alright Love, time for bed."  She was visibly upset by my statement and exclaimed, "Mamma, I'm not Love, I'm Cass."  I cracked up and Claire mustered up her best fake laugh to humor me, obviously not sure why that statement was so funny.

You can't help but laugh at these two!

  1. I just commented and it got erased- boo. Anyway, I love reading these laughs. Cracked me up. I am jealous that you get big mouth kisses. We don't yet-boo! I love the fact that she says I am not love- kids are so literal. Funny post:)

  2. That is just too stinking cute!! I really need to get her up on one of the horses soon! "Love" would be great already, but he's the bigger one. So, I don't know if that would scare her or not. But either way, Claire is awesome!

  6. Love that picture! And I think it's so funny when they're unintentionally funny. And a little too honest about their problems like revealing the fact that she just peed on herself :)
