Just Another Morning in the ESPN House

It was a fabulous quotable morning in the ESPN house ...

Bia - "I don't want to wear that skirt it doesn't spin well ... MooooooooooooooooooM, don't leave!!"
Chatty - "I don't want to wear that outfit! I don't like it!"

Mr. ESPN (after tantrums by both girls and lots of tears) - "I can't believe it is going to be worse than this when they are teenagers, there is so much drama right now."
Me - "Oh you just wait dear ... we are in for it!"

Chatty -"Mom, Bia told me I have to get her shoes for her, but I don't!  I feel like I am her servant!"
Me - "Nice use of the word servant Chatty.  All I can say is welcome to my world."

Me - "Lord help me make it through this morning, please!"

I haven't had time to download my pictures, but will this weekend.  Until then I will leave you with some of the memorable quotes from our trip.
  • "This is the happiest place on Earth - You Will Be Happy!" - Mr. ESPN to the girls on the way into the park
  • "I go back to the hotel!" - Bia multiple times each day at the park.
  • "I'm sure glad I don't have this many to watch all the time" - Me to Mr. ESPN while watching 7 kids so my neighbors and my cousin and her husband could ride Space Mountain.
  • "That's not fair!" - Chatty
  • "We have the most ungrateful children" - Me to Mr. ESPN after our kids complained incessantly the first night in the hotel.
  • "I ride Dumbo" - Bia over and over again - in between wanting to go back to the hotel.
  • "Anywhere that serves beer" - Mr. ESPN when I asked him where he wanted to go for lunch.
  • "This is the best day ever!" - Chatty every day at the park
  • "Tell him to make a freakin decision - I am tired of making all of the decisions!" - Me to Chatty when Mr. ESPN sent her over to ask if he should by her a toy.

QUOTABLE QUOTES

I read so many blogs that have all of these inspirational quotes or Bible verses and I always think - wow I wish I knew those by memory and could put them on my blog.  Yes I know it wouldn't take much effort, with the internet and the Bible APP on my phone (thanks Mr. ESPN - maybe that's a hint I need to read it more), but life gets in the way.  So instead I decided I am going to try and remember to write down quotes I hear at work and home and post them.  My favorite quote from work this week (which I posted on FB):
  • "I can't fix STUPID!" - Love it!
Some others I heard at work this week:
  • "I am a MOG, part man part dog.  I am my own best friend."
  • "It doesn't matter what she wears he will find something to say about it.  She's got curves, it's kind of hard to hide them."
  • "Sorry I have cerebral flatulence today."
  • "You can work with the people in Bangledoor." (really they are in Bangladore, India - not Bangledoor)
  • "We make sh** fly!" (The company I work for makes avionics, wheels, brakes, etc. for aircraft - we are on most commercial flights and yes one of our slogans is We Make It Fly)
Let's see what next week brings ... maybe Chatty and Bia will supply me with some material!
