Kaia's latest -isms

Kaia says some random things that make me laugh...the following are from the past week or so~so, here's to hoping you have a similar sense of humor as me~

Kaia and Brennan were trying on my dresses and playing pretend. Kaia put on a little black dress that on her was an floor length evening gown. Then, she put on some black heels that are easily four inches. She came and asked "Mom, do I look Beautiful?" I told her I thought so and I asked what she thought. She said...
I think this makes me look 7...or maybe even 8!




Kaia was watching television at her grandmother's house (what I think of that is for a separate blog :) and of course every commercial was primed to sell to her age group. Kaia is an absolute sucker for mass media marketing. So, every commercial break she went to ask grandma for a particular toy or amazing childhood distraction. The way she asked was...
Can I have ___________ for my next birthday when I turn 6?
Then the next commercial break would roll around...
Can I have ___________ for my birthday when I turn 7?
And next...
Can I have ___________ for my birthday when I turn 8?

Kaia made it all the way to her 16th birthday. I guess the upside is she does not expect Santa to bring her all of these plastic prizes this Christmas! At least she was considerate enough to space them out :)



The most recent was yesterday. Kaia was coughing and she was asked why she was coughing. Kaia said...
I have a frog in my throat.
Kaia was asked how long the frog would be in her throat. Kaia said...
It will be there for 99 hours and then we have to get him out and take him back to the pond because there is a lily pad without a frog.

I would like to know, how the frog ended up in the throat in the first place? And more importantly why it decieded to stay there for 99 hours! Is the throat really that pleasant of a place to be?
At least their was consideration, that while the frog must have been enjoying it's joy ride there was still it's home to return to, upon the lilly pad.

I am wondering if Fisher - Price or Wal - Mart, or Disney, would pay a child labor tax remebursment fee, to the submitting parents of a donated test child subject?

They could hook up the child to a brain wave lenght monitor and decihper the cerebrial fluid alteratations, durning one of their mass marketing stagedgy commericals, to see what it is that is working so well.

This gives me great faith, knowing that corperatacracy is alive and well, in our brains and living rooms!

Long live Hanna Montana!

Hey Jenna, I am so glad that you started this blog about your kids. I feel really bad that I did not get to see you the last time we were in Utah. I am going to be in California the 21st and the 22nd of December. Is there any chance that you are going to be there the same time?
