How does she know 'sushi'?

The other day J, M and I went to rent some movies from Blockbuster Video. When we pulled up to the store M saw this poster. When she saw it, she perked up and announced "Sushi Bear!" I asked her to say it again to make sure I heard her right, and she said "Sushi Bear" and pointed at the poster. I look all around and at all the posters and I inquire "what's a sushi bear?" she points again to the same poster and says "Sushi bear. Right there." I look at the poster and realize she is calling the panda from the Kung Fu Panda poster 'sushi bear'. We have not yet seen this movie, and so I it took me a minute to figure out why she was calling it a sushi bear.....it's because he is using chopsticks and holding food in them. After I figure that all out, I turn to J and say "how on earth does he know what sushi is??" (which J nor I eat.) We both sit and ponder for awhile, and J finally perks up "The raccoon movie" (as M calls it)...in which there is a cat called Yoko who eats sushi...and she gets made fun of, and its a whole debacle on one of the episodes we have. So there you have it...my daughter knows sushi.

You have to teach them early, otherwise they end up like you and Emily who are crazy and don't eat sushi. You're crazy.

And on that note, your crazy person butt has not added yourself to my fan club list on my blogger. Get to it Crazy A##.

Stranger Danger

Ok. So, we've talked to M about strangers a bit, telling her to be safe and what not. A couple of times she brings it up when we say no she can't do something and she says "because there are stangers?" or some such. We haven't talked about it recently, but apparently the message stuck: We were at Wal-Mart, had just finised checking out and J went to use the restroom and M wanted to get a drink from the water fountain -I was still a few steps behind, so M said "Mom will you come a little bit closer?" and I said yes, and she continued "because you wouldn't want a stranger to grab me." I smiled and said "No I wouldn't like that." And she said "You would say 'oh no! someone has taken my child!" At which point I couldn't help but laugh and tell her how much I loved her.

Clearance Puppy

This has been a really crazy weekend. Thursday J got a call from a breeder he had been speaking to 3 or 4 months ago. We were going to go look at a puppy of his (with no real intention of buying) back then, but when we called the breeder said he just sold the last female 2 hours previously. Then on thursday he called to tell J that a buyer backed out last minute and J has first chance at getting her, so Friday we went to see her. She was discounted for us (and b/c she is older now, I think) and much more affordable - and so we brought her home, and her name is Sugar. Sug (shoog) for short. She is very sweet and calm, and listens really well. She is a yellow lab, and for all of you who have read the book or watched the movie - yes, we bought the "clearance puppy"! And actually we stopped at Blockbuster to return some movies and a big Marley & Me poster was in the window and M said :"Is that a picture of Sugar?" - I hope not! Saturday was the last 50 cen...

Caught Bare Bottomed.

Yesterday I went to retrieve my kids from playing in the backyard with the neighbors....When I round the corner I behold my 5 year old daughter with her shorts baring her bottom to the 6 year old neighbor boy. Me:  M!  E!  It is time to go home. now! M:  E did it too! (while sheepishly pulling her shorts back up and E snaps his head around to look at me with big eyes and "O" mouth) WHY?
