Random Mutterings that are My Days


    On many occasions, I've thought to myself that people would think I'm crazy if they could hear half the things that come out of my mouth on a daily basis.  Some things I say are mundane, routine instructions or reprimands; other things make me sound like my Mother (no offense, Mom!), or some, like I'm the guy from Clockwork Orange.  So, I wrote down some of the phrases I said the other day.
     It was last Thursday, the day started at 5:45 a.m., with Kelsey and Sierra up first, Quinn following around 7 (that's sleeping in for him!).  Quinn had school in the morning, and we also had a Parent-Teacher Conference, so afterward, I just played with the girls at home before heading back to pick Quinn up.  It was pouring down rain all that day, so in the afternoon, we played in the playroom and they "helped" me make dinner.  Here's a glimpse into my own wonderful little madness, always hectic, often sweet:

Morning:

     Kelsey, did you actually just spit your apple into that toy?

     Hey, please don't put your finger in your diaper

     I'll be the mommy bear, you be the baby bear
   
     Take one more bite and you're done!

      Bless you.  Oh Sierra, you have boogies...

     Stop twirling your underpants and put your clothes on

     oh, jeez, you just stomped on my toe...

     Girls, get your toothbrushes out of the toilet...uh, garbage...gross

     Kelsey, leave your coat on

     Girls, stop ripping things down off the shelf!

     Quinn, we have to get your shoes on or we will be late for school

     Sierra know please eat your shoe, Sweetie
     Sierra, you didn't do a good job of holding your baby, now she's muddy, poor Baby

     Love you, Sweetie! have a good day, and be a good friend!

     He's mentioned two girls saying they "hate boys" and hate him...

     You're a bus you idiot

     "Ring around the rosie..."

     No, Honey, we don't rip something out of our sisters hands... Look at this book here and then you can trade

     Get off your sisters head

    Oh, Sierra, are you just dumping all the pieces out of the puzzle?

     Go on up, hold the railing;  No hitting, hitting hurts, You both have to hold the same side;  Keep going, leave the basket alone, go on up, watch your fingers, leave the cereal boxes alone...

     Time to go get Quinn - no please leave your shoes on, Sierra; Kelsey, your coat... Stop pulling those off the shelf... Stay here

      "Black coat, white shoes, black hat, Cadillac..."

Afternoon:
 
       Quinn, did you meet caterpillars today?

       As soon as you finish your lunch, I will turn on Calliou...;  Good eating girls;  Sierra no spitting; 

      Kelsey, why are you crying?;

      Stop leaning back in yiur chair please; Quinn don't point that fork at her; please, don't rub eggs on the table; chew and swallow; Kelsey, you should not be turned around right now; too bad calliou is over, now you might miss Thomas too;

      Stop leaning back... Stop Kelsey's back there - time out!  You do not lean back on your chair because you can get hurt if you fall backwards, and you just pinned your sister too, time out!

      1...2...3... It's just the vacuum, Honey! 

     Quinn, please be gentle with her while I do this.  Quinn, don't push your sister.  Quinn...Stop...couch... You just knocked her off the couch!  Time Out!

     Time to go upstairs, Girls; hold the railing. 
 
     Girls, leave your brother alone.  I'm sorry, Honey, they just wanted to see your Valentines...

     ouch, watch the toe...again with the toe....

      Sleep well, Sierra.  Mommy loves you!  <Sigh>

      Sleep well, Kelsey.  Mommy loves you!

      "Strawberry shake, strawberry shake..."

      Winning is not everything, Honey

      Quinn, do not dip your butt in the toilet, that's gross, there are germies!

       Mommy's little Keltee; you're angry that you woke up, poor girlie

       Tickle Torture, tickle torture!  Kelsey needs to be tickled, too!

       Hi, Mommy's Beesa, such a good sleeper

       Cater-pickle

Evening:

        Cuddle bug Sierra

        Pretend the blankets are islands and try not to step on the floor

       Just Pounding on some chicken, what's up?

       So pa-ritty

       Hey, Mr. Berenstein Bears Forget Their Manners, what do you say?

       watch the toe...ugh, killing me...

       What kind of loonie doctor are you?  If you cut off my arm, I'll tickle you with the stump of my arm!

       Please don't make fingerprints with your barbecue sauce

       You said "BEAR".  So smart!

      "Figaro, figaro..."

       Honey, why are you yelling?

       Daddy's home, yay! 

      "...and Goodnight to the old lady whispering, Hush...."

      "...That's all there is, there isn't any more..."

      "...Round and round go the days and nights, Up and Down go the Sun, Moon, and Starlight..."

       Good night, sweet Sierra;  Good night, little Kelsey

       I Love you Quinn, Good night; YH, YS, and YI...

Mommy off duty
