Colton & Candy

Colton "working"

C: I'm only going to spend the night for one night, because my brothers will very miss me.

C: If you make us a cave of darkness, I'll stay in it forever! But I will miss my brother, and I will be hungry.

Me: Have a little candy there?
C: I have lots and lots! I have some on both sides [of the table]!

C: I am working [looking at candy], so don't let any of the babies cry.  If they do, just tell me. 

C: That bag is for you to take to work! But you can only choose one at a time.  And the other bag is for me to keep for the babies when they get old enough to have candy.

Me: I can only do one thing at a time.
C: Well Mom, you just have two hands!

Me: I'm hungry!
C: You can have some of my candy.
Me: I'm hungrier than a piece of candy.
C: It's candy or nothing!
Where have I heard this argument before?

Is There Such a Thing as Too Sparkly?

Halloween candy + sour cream mustache from dinner

C: This juice is too sparkly!
Say it isn't so!

C: I have a schmooper idea!
Me: You do?  I think you are a schmooper boy!
C: I'm not a schmooper boy! I'm Colton! Call me Colton!

Forgot my water bottle at the gym tonight ~
C: Mom, are you going to go back and get your water bottle?
Me: I'll see if someone turns it in to the lost and found tomorrow.
C: Sarah will go get it for you!
Thanks, Sarah!!

C: Hey Mom, I want an apple.
Me: Sure, we can share one when we get home.
C: And I'm going to eat it ALL!
Me: You are? You don't want to share?
C: You can have the stem!
Me: Oh, thanks.

Happy Girl

Me: Is Mama a sad girl?
C: He's a happy girl! He's not sad. Can't have that!
