4-year-old: Where are the cookies? They didn’t just walk away. If there is one thing I know about cookies, it is that they don’t have legs.

“Who’s that?” “Jack Funston” “No, my like him”
She is evidence that brainwashing works.

Junior was in fine form today with the players at family day, first asking Hartley who is a better player out of him and Baguley, and then asking Saad if he was the fastest on the team. When Saad asked what he thought, Junior said “number 49 is faster” which drew a few laughs.

My youngest is 14 months tomorrow. She has been repeating words / sounds for a while now. She has Hi and Bye down pat. Nana (Banana). She can actually say Boo-beri (Blueberries).
Most impressive, last week she started turning to the Kitchen Bench and saying “Ay Oogle”. It’s terrifyingly hilarious. Google Home doesn’t quite pick it up (yet).

Again on the “bragging”. I was talking about wanting to learn another language using an app so my 6yo goes “DADDY! You have to STOP bragging. Else your head will grow big… and… you will just float away like a balloon! Then you will never see us again. Would you like that?!?”
Apparently she has heard the words bragging and big-headed in the same context somewhere…

6yo: “Wow, Daddy those are big sentences”
Me: “Yes. See this one and see if you can read it…”

Miss 4: Daddy, I want to do snowboardinf, it looks fun. You go on a board and then you go on the snow and you go fast.
Now Daddy has had the Winter Olympics on for the past 16 days and figured Miss 4 had not pay one iota of attention to them so was a bit surprised by this. So I respond with
“It does look fun, did you see it on the Olympics.”
Miss 4: "No they do it on Paw Patrol and all the pups have lots of fun.
That makes more sense and Daddy’s instincts were right…doubt she even knows what the Olympics are let alone they’ve just been on for the past 16 days.
