Oh the Funny Things

So earlier today I was feeling bad for using Allie's love of Simon Says to make her help clean up.  After a few "Simon says touch your toes" and  "Simon says jump up and down" I'd throw in a "Simon says pick up all your shoes and put them away."  Then tonight Allie was wanting to play Simon Says again, so Coleman, whose chore tonight was to gather the trash, says, "Simon says go get the trash."  And she did!  He asked me if that was OK, and since I had used that trick earlier in the day, who was I to deny him? 

Other funnies:

Allie looked at her third helping of ravioli tonight and said, "You're goin' down!"

A few nights ago I overhead Spence and Allie playing in another room.  Spence said, "Whoever says ouch first loses."  Pretty sure that's my cue to go check out their "game"!
