It's Friday... dance!

Having kids means, you stop everything you are doing on a Friday to make a video of them dancing.  Please turn the volume up on your computer or iphone or whatever (Grandma Powell has to get out the headphones at work!) and get the weekend started right!

Brian got me the music of Glee for our anniversary (love it!).



And then a moment of joy with Corrie... 



Yes, we heart Kelley Clarkson here!  Thank you Aunt Betsy for satisfying my craving for good dancing music.  It's working!  The sad thing is in the first video I recognize some of my moves that Corrie is copying.  Oh boy...  Happy weekend everyone!

Quoth the Corrie:

Corrie, did you wash your hands?
"Yes"
Just now?  When did you wash your hands?
"When I went to the potty.."
And when was that?
"Umm...... a couple of days ago"


"Where are you going, Mommy?"
Daddy and I are going on a date!
"Oh! Like to McDonalds??"

"Do you know what, Mommy?"
What?
"I wish my bottom could go like this [moves to one side of toilet seat],  and like this [to the other side], and like this [to the back]..."
Well honey, one day your bottom will be big enough.
"Yeah, like yours!"
