Eat your beans

We had black beans at dinner tonight. Chris eats them up no problem. Payton's were just sitting there. I told her to eat some of her beans. She says, "No, they're bugs." I explained they weren't bugs and told her to eat at least one. So she picks one out and pops it in her mouth. Then she scrunches up her face and tells me, "You made me eat a bug."

You're lame

Tonight at dinner, Chris didn't like something I said, so he said, "Mom, you're lame." Lame is his new favorite word now that he's heard it on a couple of shows. I said, "That's fine. Still doesn't change anything." Then Payton came to my rescue, "Mom, you aren't lame. You're just regular." Thanks sweetie!!

Payton wants what??

Today Payton asked me when she's going to get boobs. I told her probably when she's 12 or 13. She said, "how about when I'm 5?" I don't think I would be ready for that. I'm positive Ron wouldn't be ready for that. Oh, and by the way, she wants them to be purple.

I'm the tallest in my class

At dinner, we were talking about how tall Chris is now. He told us that he's the tallest in his class (which doesn't surprise us). Ron says to him, "Wow! The tallest in your class." Chris responded with, "You know that means? I can't punch anyone." Good policy to have :-)
