Blind Doll

Gracie was playing with the American Girl Dolls.  She had glasses on one and came to McKinley and said,

"If you put the glasses on the wrong doll, will she go blind?"

Seriously, I can't make this stuff up.

Police Man

We were on our way to swimming and Gracie saw a truck with flashing lights.  She yells out,

"A policeman!"

McKinley calmly says, "Uh, thats an ice cream man?"

I guess the flashing lights and annoying music was confusing to her.

Grandchilds

The latest "Gracie-ism"

"Mom, did you know Grandma's have to love their Grandchilds?  They can't be mean to them."

Good thing her Grandma is one of the kindest women in the world.

Baby

Gracie was playing with her itouch and Elsie crawled over to her and tried to take it.  Gracie looked at Aaron and said,

"This is why we don't need a baby, a naughty baby."

Look

Last night we were making caramel popcorn, well, Aaron and McKinley were making caramel popcorn.  I had to rescue them.  As McKin was bringing the caramel mixture to a soft boil I realized they hadn't popped any corn yet.  So, I hysterically ran to the pantry to start poppin.  As I'm heading there I say to Aaron, "Where's the popcorn?"  He says back, "I don't know just look".  Gracie pipes in and says (very dramatically, like the commercial),

"Look, look with your special eyes"

(you know, from the 1-800-contact commercial) 

Freckles

When Gracie is with Ben I can guarantee there will be great blog worthy conversations.

Gracie: Ben, do you see my freckles?
Ben: Yes Gracie.
Gracie: Aren't they so cute?
Ben: Yes Gracie.

Same day, Gracie is in the bathroom needing my assistance wiping.

Gracie: Ben will you go get my Mom?
Ben (quietly): Yes Gracie.
Gracie: Ben, I told you to go get my mom!
Ben (very frustrated): I AM!

Some day when they are married they will act like a real married couple, oh wait, they already do!!!

Guinea Pig

Gracie approaches Olivia with a mattress pump in her hand and says,

"Come here, let me try something on you." 

"Put this in your mouth" (of course its the end of the pump). As she pushes down and Olivia's mouth fills with air she almost falls on the ground laughing.  She is such a character.
