Gems from Jenna...

A week or two ago Jenna wanted to bottle feed her baby.  I had no idea where the bottles were and I didn't want to look for them so I said, "Why don't you breast-feed her?"  (Incidentally, Jenna had been preoccupied with the notion all week).


Jenna said, "No, her don't wanna be breastfeeded.  She wants real food!"


That about killed me.  Did the doll want a cheeseburger?!

Last week Jenna was walking around the house with her shorts unbuttoned.  I said, "What's going w/your shorts?"  While pointing to her unbuttoned shorts. 


Jenna said,  "My girf * is grand."   *girth

The Friday before Easter, we all went to my parents' house to have dinner and hide some eggs for the girls.  Jenna and I made chocolate chip bunny shaped muffins.  


I hadn't used the pan before and didn't know what to do or how long to do it for.  They ended up very black. And that was on a lower setting than recommended for a shorter amount of time!   I laughed and said, "Another kitchen disaster with Kelly.  I should have a show called 'Kitchen Disasters with Kelly.'" 


I said it so Tim could hear in the next room and then I heard Jenna say, "And Jenna!"


So I said, " You don't make disasters in the kitchen.:


And Jenna smiled and said, "No, but I DO make them in the living room!"


Indeed she does.


Luckily, I made the next batch fine and as an afterthought had Jenna use small M&M's for the eyes, cut jelly beans for the nose and coconut for the whiskers.  They looked cute and we took them with us to the party.

Last week Jenna said, "When I grow up my babies are gonna be crazy just like we are."


That's a good possibility...

Yesterday we were at Wal-Mart and Jenna was using some birthday money.  She wanted to spend it all on Ashley.  (AWWW!)

That girl is a trip! And I think it's a very good possibility that her babies will be crazy, seems to run in the family. ;-)
