Funny Quotes from Kara

Now that Kara talks (and talks and talks), she's become our primary source of entertainment up here in Oregon. Here are a few highlights from the past two days:

-Kara saw a man sitting under a tree smoking a cigarette. She asked Kim, "What him doing Mommy?" Kim replied, "Relaxing." Kara watched the smoke collect around the man's head and she said in alarm, "Mommy, him on fire!"

-Kara is currently potty-training. She's been really good about going in the potty, but last night she forgot about not wearing a diaper. We were at the neighbor's, playing on their beach, when she walked up to me and said, "Poop in leg." It took me about five minutes of charades before I realized that she'd pooped her pants and it had rolled down her leg. Since she was wearing elastic-bottomed pants, it settled down around her ankles. What to do with the poop? Well, the neighbors have a black lab named Ruby and they put little orange cones near Ruby's poop as reminders. So I let the turd plop on the grass and put a cone next to it. After taking Kara back home and changing her, I returned to clean up the mess and saw that it was gone! I asked Rielly, the seven-year-old neighbor, "What happened to Kara's poop?" He shrugged and said, "Ruby ate it." Kara heard this and kept repeating, "Ruby ate my poop Daddy!"

-Kara said, "I just farted." Kim replied, "Kara, we don't say 'farted,' it isn't a nice word. We say 'tooted.'" Kara promptly returned, "I know Mommy, I just farted out of my mouth." Kim: "Kara, that's called a burp." I don't think she understood Kim through all the laughing.

You just totally un-did all the warm fuzzy feelings the kittens gave us with that dog story. I think I will need to go see Dr. Basta for that one, or maybe a hypnotist. I am laughing so hard about the burp and how she's talking. We miss you VERY much!
