Caley: Mom, Zeke took another cookie.
Mom, taking cookie from his hand: No, no more cookies, you already had some.
Zeke: But mom, I wanted to have free cookies. I had two, now I have free!
Mom: You can't have three cookies...
Zeke: But I want to be strong, and free cookies will make me strong!
Mom: No, cookies don't make you strong....they make you chubby.
Zeke: HEH-HEH!
Me: Well, it's true!
Zeke, running off: You are just makin' a big fat yie!
Caley: Who did a big fat lie?
Zeke: Mom did a big fat yie that cookies make you chubby!
So....power cookies or chubby cookies?

Personality Crafts
See that last post?
The one right below this one.
My blog was hacked, as you can tell from the tags.
I'll let you guess who wrote that.
BACK TO YOUR REGULARLY SCHEDULED POST
Anyhoo, I was babysitting my siblings the other day, and I decided to take out a bunch of craft supplies and have a craft night. I realized that all the crafts my siblings made totally showed their personalities.
For example.
Zeke, my youngest brother, spent the night using his beloved dinosaur stamps. After covering the construction paper, he cut out each one to give to his BFF AJ. Scissors are another favorite hobby of his. His was the biggest mess to clean up. Totally Zeke....dinosaurs, AJ, and a messy but fun time.
Riley made a mask from a paper plate, being sure to use pink and purple butterfly and flower, and heart stamps. Riley is often lovingly teased for being so....ah...spacey? That isn't quite the word, but her dream world would consist of fairies, rainbows, ponies, and she would be Princess Smiley. She told us a few weeks ago that sometimes her smile just wouldn't turn off, and she just couldn't help but smile.
JD....ah, JD. It's making me smile now just thinking how very JD his mask is. It's a nice mask, its just that the face is kind of far down, and the stick is falling off and kind of off to the side.
Caley made a paper bag puppet. Ms. Meticulous was only half finished when it was time to clean up for bedtime.
Hannah's was a girly-girly puppet, with colored beads and yarn and a huge green bow at the top of her head.(The puppet, I mean, not Hannah herself.) AJ likes art, I like crafting, and Hannah is in the middle.
AJ made a pig puppet. Like I said, he enjoys art, like drawing. He made it complete with pink ears and pink beads for the nose.
My poor little mask go only eye holes and half a head of hair since I was so busy distributing supplies and helping everyone else.
(Just so the public knows this was actually "posted by Alex at 10:16", not posted by her Pops while she was sleeping)

My Dad
Just wanted to post a quick note here about my Dad. My Dad is pretty much the most amazing and coolest guy in the world. Not only good looking, but he's also charming, delightful and so loving. On top of all of that, Will Ferrell, Jack Black and Steve Martin are sad little men compared to the hilarity my Dad brings. What can I say, my Dad is really just AMAZING.
And I promise, when I am older to care for him and help him in any way I can.
I also promise to make him a cake, just because he deserves it.
Oh and I'll wash his socks after he's been out cutting the grass.
And I'll give him 20 bucks....just cuz I can.
In summary, I owe everything I am to my incredibly awesome and hilarious Dad!
