Playing Ball

One of my favorite moments of today was when Nate came up to me holding a ball and asked me to play catch with him.  I was washing the dishes at the time.  He stood patiently in the kitchen, clutching the ball, until I was finished.  The funny part about this game of catch was that Nate was wearing no pants.  And at one point he was sitting on the ground with his legs out in front of him.  I'm all for being comfortable and 'au naturel', but that boy needs to start wearing pants!

I'm go eat all that butta...

The other day, Lily randomly began talking with a southern accent.  Of all things, it happened when I caught her eating a stick of butter.  After explaining that it will make her sick, I took the butter from her and put it back in it's place on the highest shelf in the fridge.  She responded with an astonishing, "I'm go'  climb up thayre and eat all that butta, and when you buy mo', I'll eat all that butta y'all".  Her response was actually longer but being so caught up in the humor of the moment, the specific wording has escaped me.  The funniest part is we have no idea where she got it from.  One of her friends at school must have an accent, or maybe she saw it on one of the rare TV shows she watches.  Regardless, it's hilarious. Thankfully Tom caught it on video tonight.  We'll be guaranteed a perfect little angel when she's a teenager with all the blackmail material she's giving us now.
