Funny things the girls say

Back in 2015, I decided I wanted to write down funny things the girls said because I knew they would likely outgrow them with experience and age. I started out strong and then forgot about doing such, remembering occasionally during a year to completely forgetting almost four years ago and recently stumbled upon what I had written. So here are some of the funny things the girls said in their earlier years.

Avery in response to me saying Grandma Adele was old:
- Avery: She isn’t old, she just uses a cane. – Fall 2015
Harper in response to Justin peeing with her nearby in the bathroom.
- Harper: Daddy, what are you squeezing? – Fall 2015
Avery in response to putting on a winter hat. – December 2015
- Avery: This hat SUCKS
Emerson asked if Justin could mail a hand drawn picture to baby God for his birthday – December 2015
Emerson in response to hearing something she doesn’t want.
- Emerson: FINE, fine, fine, fine (with the tone of a 15 year old girl). – Jan 2016
Emerson in response to not wanting to clean up the playroom – 1/2/16
- Emerson: It gives me allergies to clean up. For real.
Avery told Justin to stop yawning while reading books in bed because its so rude -Feb 2016
Avery and Harper: “Okay, Mommy Madusa” – repeatedly Summer/Fall 2016
On Mother’s Day, Avery shared that Mommys are smarter than Daddy’s – May 2016
All the Girls – This entire past year to present (August 2016) – Whausay? Instead of “What did you say”…they say it real fast….reminds me of “What you talking about Willis”
Avery in response to what I should do with the Thank You card that Ms. Duffett gave her for the Holiday Gift Card Avery gave her. “Mom, can you put this in my baby book. I might want to read it when I’m in high school.” – Dec 2016
Harper – All the time in December 2016 – “What the hecker?” – in terms of what the heck?
Harper when I was taking her to the bathroom at our neighbors The Fosters and she saw there was a window in the bathroom. Harper: “What is that!” Me: “A window”. Harper: “A window in the bathroom! What the hecka? That’s WEIRD!”
Emerson and Avery having a heated discussion – they were trying to resolve a situation on their own…Emerson was quite frustrated talking with her hands and Avery was fairly calm. They were both sitting looking each other in the eye when they spoke. Emerson was getting frustrated and said “We have a problem, we need to solve this Avery!” – Jan 2017
Avery – in general says “seriously”, “for example”, and “literally” when having conversations – Feb 2017
Emerson upon me bending over without a shirt on…”why is your belly so wrinkly…ballerinas don’t have wrinkly bellies.” My response…well I don’t know…it just is. A Ballerina?” Emerson said, “yeah, you were a ballerina when you were a kid”. – March 2017
Avery made me a painting. I asked her what she used. She said “oil pistachios”. Justin said you mean “oil pastels?” to which she replied, yes – March 2017
“For real” or “for real life” – all three girls when they are trying to prove a point that something is true. – May 2017
After visiting Grandma Brenda at the cemetery and asking about everyone that was buried there, Avery said “Man, it’s going to be crowded in heaven by the time I get there. Later, in the car ride home she asked if we knew what night we would die. After Justin explained that only God knows, Avery waited about 15 minutes and then said’ In my sixties, I am going to start wearing pajamas so I won’t have to go to heaven naked. – November 2017
May 2018 – Dinner conversation – somehow the girls started talking about boobs. They were going on and on about bras and how you are supposed to cover them, and when you get them, and the fact that boys don’t have them…at least most boys. Justin was starting to get very uncomfortable and he said such….Harper turned to him and said, “well we are talking about it so you can leave and go somewhere else if you don’t want to be a part of it”.
December 2018 at Dinner: the girls were talking about ‘weenies’ and Emerson explained that a ‘weenie’ is just a man’s vagina.
