Can we go to the ABC Store

After preschool today the kids and I had to run a quick errand at the post office, when we pulled up....
Jack: Oooooh can we go to the ABC place?
Me: the what?
Jack: The ABC place
Me: Jack I have no clue what you're talking about
Jack: The ABC store over there (pointing across the street) where I got my toy police car!!!
Me (looking across the street):  You mean CVS?
Jack: Yes, the abc store.

A Scooby Doo Wedding

Tonight I put both kids to bed, went downstairs to clean up and watch some Tv, and assumed that  since all was quiet upstairs then everyone was obviously sleeping. Apparently that whole saying about assuming anything applies to making assumptions about sleeping children as well.

When I headed up to bed at 11 pm I realized I could hear voices in Zoe's room. I stood outside her door for a few minutes and could hear bits and pieces of talk about a wedding and finally decided to open the door and go in. I found both kids, out of pajamas and in dress clothes....
Me: What in the world is going on? Why aren't you guys asleep? Where are your pajamas?
Jack: Oh I had to get dressed up
Zoe: Yea, we were having a wedding
Me: Who was getting married?
Zoe: Oh I told Jack we were, I'm Daphne and he's Freddy (my kids are obsessed with Scooby Doo).
Jack: Yup we are all married,  those are the kids  (as he points to Zoe's five million stuffed animals).

So to recap, the day started off with Jack having a reaction to peanuts, heading to the ER for treatment, everyone had a quick nap and recovered from that, we played outside all afternoon, and THEY ARE STILL AWAKE AT 11PM!!!

Cat Got Your Tongue?

Zoe has apparently learned the phrase "cat's got your tongue" somewhere, but missed the memo on how to properly use it.....
Jack * whining and crying*
Zoe: Awww Jack what's wrong, cat got your tongue?
Jack: NO CAT! *still crying*
Zoe: yea that cat does have your tongue and he's scratching it and making you say wahhh waaahh waaahh

Chanel Chance

Winston, as he passes Zoe coming down the stairs: Zoe have you gotten into Mommy's perfume?
Zoe: No, I put on some of my perfume. I just let Mommy borrow it when she wants to smell fancy.

I'm Feeling 22

Zoe: Mom play me the hamster song.
Me: The what?
Zoe: The dress up like hamsters song
Me: What are you talking about? Can you sing it?
Zoe: You know..*begins singing* "It feels like a perfect night to dress up like hamsters....oooh I'm feeling 22."
Annnnd apparently Zoe has thought Taylor Swift was dressing as a hamster and not a hipster this entire time.

When You Wish Upon A Star

Me: Hey Jack and Zoe look how big the moon is tonight.
Zoe: Oooh mommy can we wish? I wish for a star.
Me: It's wish upon a star, you can actually wish for whatever you want.
Zoe: Ok...I wish I would loose my tooth and the tooth fairy would forget me. You know why? Because that really did already happen to me and she left me tattoos and lip gloss with my dollars.
Jack: Ughhh I wish to not loose a tooth so the fairy doesn't bring me lip gloss

Bedtime Prayers


 Zoe: Dear God, please help me not be scared tonight. Also please help Jack be more bad than me so I don't keep getting in trouble.
