A few more

Okay...my niece really is hilarious. I promise after this post I really will start to blog about my own life and children again, but I was just reading through more of my sister's blog of funny things her daughter has said I was laughing so hard I was crying, so I decided to post a few more of the funny things Addie has said (the previous post was all about her too - if you haven't read that one yet, you need to).

Addies dinner time prayer- "Heavenly Father, help this day, please bless that this food will be good and it will help me grow-up to be a mermaid..."
uh? ok

Addies prayer tonight"Heavenly Father, please bless Grandpa that he will feel better (he is having surgery tomorrow) and he will be safe driving and that we will grow to be big like Clifford (the Big Red Dog)....

Me: "Addie you need to eat your squash, it will make you healthy and strong"
Addie "It doesn't make me healthy, it makes me sick"

Addie came and slapped Ammons butt and said "I just gave you a butt high five" (4 yrs)

Ammon accidentally gave Addie a big fork to eat with. Addie asked "Daddy, can I please have a lowercase fork?" (3 yrs old)

Addie was playing with her aunt Jeneve and play hitting her. I told her to stop hitting and she replied "but mom I prayed to Heavenly Father and he answered my prayer and said it was okay"....yeah nice try Addie (3 yrs old)

I was standing at the sink doing dishes (pregnant) and Addie came up to me and said "mom you have a really big bum and a really big belly"... well thanks Addie

Addie was outside playing with her friend Cada when I heard her say this "Cada, I'm Jesus and you need to put this mud on your eyes and then wash it off...." good thing I was there to stop this one. (3 yrs)

We went camping last week and both Addie and I got woke up in the middle of the night sick. Addie was telling someone about getting sick when we were camping and then said and my mom had A LOAD of throw-up" (4 yrs)

Addie and I were playing make-believe. I asked her if she would make me some strawberry cake. She just looked at me and said "Mom, I am NOT your servent!" (3 yrs)

We were in the store when Addie saw a little girl with freckles.Addie: Mom, Look!!! that little girl has dot's on her face. (sigh) I wish I had dots on my face.

We were at the hospital with Grandpa Marren and the doctor was asking Addie if she was going to be a doctor when she grew up. She replied "yeah I'm going to be a doctor and a teacher but mostly I just want to be grown-up".....well at least she has given up on the idea of turning into a mermaid

Last night while driving, Addie asked why she needed to wear a seatbelt. We asked her what she thought would happen if she didn't. "Well, the door would fly open and I would fall out and fly through the window and get a cav...what is that called again when your teeth fall out?"
Ammon: "a cavity?"
Addie: "Yes, I would get a cavity"
hmmm... I guess that is something to worry about.

Today in church, Addie was talking to an elderly couple sitting behind us. After a while she said "Are you guys married yet? Is she your wife?" after they replied in the affirmative, she said "Well are you going to have a baby then?"
Also in church today, when it was especially quiet, Addie said in a not quiet voice "HEY MOM did you hear me just TOOT!"

Me-"Hey Addie are you ready to go out to the garden?"
Addie- playing in the sandbox "uh, uh maybe in just a minute, but um mom, uh (clearly stalling for time so she can play in the sandbox longer), actually mom, you need to go change your clothes. Your shirt does NOT match your pants."
I'm so glad I have a 3 year old in the house to give me fashion advice.

Addie just came running in to see me and said "Mom, I just saw President Hinckley on the TV!! He didn't die yet!"

Addie was reading a book while I was doing her hair. It was a book of the Nativity story. She started telling me who everyone was. " This is Jesus, and this is Mary...." When she got to the page with the Shepard keeping watch over their flocks, she asked " Mom, is this Mary's little lamb?"

Yesterday Addie wanted to bring one of her new bug friends inside. I explained to her that bugs need to stay outside because that is where their families are and they might get sad if they don't get to see their mom and dad anymore. This morning, Addie was playing in her sandbox and I could tell she was holding a bug. I asked her what she had and this was her reply. "I got a bug but it's okay. It's saying 'I don't want my mother, I don't want my mother'. His family is gone. They are not in the sandbox, they are not in the grass, they are not..."
Oh Addie, you are so kind to take care of all those orphan bugs.

There is a cute little boy named Benson next door that Addie has started to play with. Tonight, she was out playing with him and I told her it was time to come in for bed. She was almost in the garage and she turned around and yelled "I'll see you later Hansom. Good night Hansom"

Me: "Addie, run go potty"
Addie: "But mom, the pee pees are saying 'I don't want to come out, I don't want to come out'."

Addie: "Mom can I have some more rice?"
Me: "You need to eat some more veggies and chicken first"
Addie: "Daddy will you eat my veggies and chicken so I can have some more rice?"

Ammon: "Hey Chalise, do you want some I-C-E C-R-E-A-M?
Addie: "I Want some I-C-E C-R-E-M!!!"

Addie: "Mom I need a drink of water"
Me: "What's the magic word?"
Addie "Bibbity Boppity Boo"

Addie was looking at our wedding photos and telling me she is getting married too. I tried to tell her that she needs to go to elementary school, and high school, and college and do lots of fun things before she gets married. She looked at me with a confused look and said "But mom, I'm only 2 and 1/2 years old."

Driving home from Northern Utah, we were trying to think up a name for our new van. We finally decided on Gus Gus (from Cinderella) which of course Addie liked. Coming off the freeway, we went over a cattle gaurd and Addie just started laughing. We asked what was so funny, to which she replied "Gus Gus tooted"

I was exercising in the living room and was straining a little. Addie came in with a dish towel drapped over her head.
Addie: "I'm Jesus, and I will help you exercise"

Setting: Grandma and Grandpa Vincent Dinner table eating Sunday dinner together
Grandpa: "Addie, would you say the blessing?"
Addie: "yep" (and then, in a very sing-song voice) 'Heavenly Father, are you really there and do you hear every child's prayer, please bless the ......In the name of Kimball, Jesus Christ, amen"

Addie: "I got married mom"
Me: "You did? Did you get married in the temple"
Addie: "No, I got married in my bedroom"
Me: "Oh, who did you marry?"
Addie: "ummm.. a prince, but he's gone now"

Addies adaptation of the story "Snow White""Once upon a time in a land far away, there lived a beautiful young girl named Snow White. Her wicked step mother gave her a poison apple and killed her and then the dwarfs came. There was Dopey, Sneezy and Yawn and they all lived happily ever after."She used to tell this story in more detail but I think she decided to skip all the fluff and get right to the important details.
We had fish for dinner last week and Addie was saying the blessing on the food.Addie: "Please bless the fish and please bless that we will eat my goldfish".....Oh her poor fish are doomed.During dinner, after eating all her fish she asked "Mom, can I have some more selfish"

I have a 3-1/2 year old niece and a 6 month nephew. I totally like all your quotes. I want to get my brother and sister-in-law to write down what they say.
