Today my three-year-old had me rolling with the giggles!


She came up to me smiling and saying loudly(what sounded like to me - because she doesn't pronounce her 's's so well), "mommy, its peeing outside! mommy it's peeing outside! mommy it's peeing outside!" I asked her to say it again slowly and she replied, "Mommy! I said it's peeing outside!" So as I'm thinking in my head, is someone peeing outside our window and she is seeing this? Then I'm thinking how perverted if someone is! So I then quickly look out the window and there is nobody out there and nothing out of the ordinary. As I breath a sigh of relief, I turn back to my daughter, still very puzzled and then as she says it again this time pronouncing each word more distinctly, "Mommy it's pring outside!" - - - - the lightbulb goes off in my head and I realize she is saying, "it's spring outside!" not "it's peeing outside!"


I blame the mix up entirely on my mind being fuzzy from my pregnancy!

Andi's first joke

Today as my three-year-old and I were driving in our minivan to pick up Jenna from tumbling class, Andi asks me, "Mommy, why did the chicken cross the road with his shoes on?"
So with interest and a smile beginning to spread across my face, I replied, "Why?", expecting her to tell me the punchline.
Instead I was surprised when she said, "I'm not telling you mommy, you are supposed to guess."
With this response the smile that was beginning on my face turned into a full blown grin followed by a giggle. I then replied, but honey, I don't know why the chicken crossed the road with his shoes on."
She was not happy with this response and told me again, a little more sternly this time, "mommy you have to guess!"
So thinking I will teach her the proper way to tell a joke at a later date, and instead just share in the simple joy of her own special way of telling jokes. I responded with, "did he cross the road to get to the other side?" And that was the response she was looking for! With that she shouted, "yes!" and began to boil over with giggles.

The very first post

Hello out there . . . . .wow, writing the first entry has suddenly become just a little intimidating. Well best thing to do is just jump right in and begin!

I think I will start with a little introduction - - My name is Lisa, I am a 35 year old stay-at-home mom. I have been married for 7 years to my college sweetheart. We have two little girls who are just filled to the brim with spirit and spunk, as you could probably tell from the picture above! The oldest is Jenna, who just turned 6 this last weekend. The picture was taken on her birthday party at a gymnasium, the kids were able to run around and play on the equipment. Our girls had a great time! I hope all of the guests had a great time too! Our middle child is Andi, who is three. Our third and youngest princess isn't in the picture yet, because she is still baking in my belly. She is due to make her first appearance in this world in early June. I think I will have to put an ultra sound pic up soon of her.

Oh, and if you are wondering why I call her a laughing princess too, and she isn't even born yet?
Well, that's because every time her sisters are around my belly giggling she starts to kick and move, so I naturally assume she is laughing right along with them.

Does any one else have daughters that are close in age? Do they giggle like crazy together and whisper secrets in each others ears, looking up suddenly to see if any one has heard with a twinkle in their eyes and then burst out into long peels of laughter that are tough to recover from?

Their laughter is the sweet, magical music which we orchestrate our lives too. This blog is about the happy melody of family life with our three laughing princesses as they grow. So if you want to find out what happened today, then check back soon for the next post . . . . . . .until then, God Bless
