Crazy Quotes By Clair

So, yesterday, we were on the phone to family and Clair goes and gets like a MILLION tissues. She had this HUGE wad as big as her head! Kate came running to me and of course had to tattle. I went around and corner and there she was with her cranium sized wad of tissue. I said, "Clair, for the love of Nancy...what are you doing?" She says (in her most calm, plain, everyday, whats the big deal voice) "I have to blow my noes." Then she proceeds to put her tiny little face into that huge wad of tissue and make her mousey little attempt at blowing her noes. I would have lost if laughing if I was so mad about the fact that she just wasted almost an entire box of tissues!

Clair is almost over this one, but she is finally getting the hang of saying the prayer. However, she started saying something about Jesus, but Stephen and I couldn't figure out what it was. Then one day Kate said, "Clair, how come you bless that Jesus will get fixed?" (Kate obviously speaks Clair-ish.) "Clair said, "Because he has holes in his hands and feet." It made me happy to realize that she does pay attention in FHE...since we had several lessons about this before Easter.

Finally, both my girls are totally crazy about George Strait. I have his 50 number one hits in the van and we listen to it all the time...as requested by Kate and Clair. Kate's favs are "Baby Blue" and "Ocean Front Property". Clair loves "Baby Blue" (as well) and "All My Ex's Live in Texas". They both sing at the top of their lungs. While we were at church for the Cinco de Mayo party we weren't allowed to call Cinco de Mayo (long story if you haven't already heard) Clair got on a piano in the room off the kitchen and started playing and singing "Baby Blue". It was too cute.

Anyways, we are looking forward to a short week as we will be camping this weekend for Mothers Day. We are ALL so excited, esp the girls. We have fishing, paddle boating, hiking, playground playing, and bird watching on our list. Tonight for FHE we will be planning food. Kate's main concern is marshmellow to roast! We go on Thursday and will be back Saturday in order to get ready for church. (Pray for nice but cool weather!) The following weekend we will be on our way to Texas. Stephen is going to Monteray, Mexico and the girls and I will stay with my mom and dad. It will be great to see them, esp since they have never seen me full on in the radient beauty of pregnancy...I am being very sarcastic! :) Anyway, we hope you all have a great week! Love to you all!
