Yesterday, we went to a wedding. It was really fun, except that Addison had to pee every ten minutes. The following is what went down on the fourth trip...the only one that there were other people in the bathroom for, of course.
me: do you need help, or can you do it yourself?
Addison: I can do it myself. Can you shut the door mom?
me: yep...good luck

About a minute and a half later....

me: Are you almost done?
Addison: I'm just wiping my bum

About a minute later...

me: Addison, are you done yet?
Addison: I'm just wiping my BUM I said! (with a growly "bum") Mom, you have to be PATIENT! (growly patient for emphasis).

So, the other two ladies in stalls start laughing and re enact the whole scene between the two of them. A few coolers will make any situation super entertaining!LOL

Moral of the story...be patient. Addison will be out when she is DOOOONNNEEE!!!

A conversation with a policeman

I got stopped at a checkstop tonight, and the policeman on duty was one I knew. He made a comment about our van, and the rest went like this:
him: you've sure had this van awhile, hey? Are you getting a new vehicle soon?
me: yeah, we'd like to.
him: a new minivan?
me: probably a car, for the mileage.
A little more chit chat about kids, and I was on my way. As soon as we pulled away, que Addison
Addison: mom!!(angrily)
me: what?
Addison: you forgot to tell him that we are buying a 'vertible'! (with a growl for the last word...just to show how angry she was).
me: a what?
Addison: a 'VERTIBLE'!
me:, oh, a convertible?
Addison: yeah!
me: I'm sorry, I didn't know that was the plan.
Addison: it is, I want to buy one!

Soooo, will the next vehicle be a 'vertible?' maybe someday!
