Dillon-isms

I know it's never as entertaining when you are repeating funny sayings on a blog - but in my memory they are adorable...

Brandon and Dillon have recently started playing Super Mario - mainly just Brandon but Dillon instructs - ie, Dad, go that way, dad you didn't get the star bits, dad get the extra life - I think you get the idea. Brandon found a game on the computer that is easy enough for Dill to play and this is a recent conversation (it's the very condensed version of about a 5 minute long conversation) ...

D - I just don't like it, when the time goes off it kills me, I have to skedaddle but I just can't skedaddle fast enough and it kills me!

M - Well, isn't that because it's a timed game and you have to beat it before the time goes?

D- Yeah, but I just have to skedaddle if I'm going to win, I just don't like it.

(The enjoyment for me in that conversation was his usage of the work skedaddle, I have no clue where he learned it)

Exactly 75% of the people in our household are obsessed with babies - OBSESSED. (You can have 3 guesses as to which one isn't, though if you know us at all there is no need for more than one guess.) Regularly through out the day I am fielding 'baby' questions, we've already covered the 'how did it get there' a number a times. Additionally, Dillon is preparing at a very early age for marriage, if it were up to him it would probably be today, and he has no doubt in his mind who that girl will be, a dark haired fireball beauty named Olivia, who is 2. She is Kenzie's best friend in the whole world and the daughter of our friends. This conversation occurred in the car on the way home from playing with her and a few other friends...

D- When mommy's get babies do the daddy's get to watch.

M- Yes, of course, the daddy has to go to the hospital and help the doctor.

D- So when I marry Olivia and I'm going to be a daddy do I get to watch when she gets a baby?

Yes, my son is ready for life, he's just missing a few skills like ummm, kindergarten on up???
