Funny happenings

Baby Brudder

A few months ago, shortly after Chase was born the family attended Friday night services at our synagogue.  The kids love to participate and during the service the Rabbi asked the congregation if there was anything of note they wanted to announce to the other members of the group.  Darcy, our 4 year old daughter and one of our triplets, immediately raised her hand and was the first called upon to make an announcement.  Darcy proudly announced that she had a new baby brother, to which she received  many "Mazel Tovs".  The Rabbi went around the room and the group listened to a few other announcements from the congregation.  Just as the Rabbi wanted to move on the next part of the service, Bryce, our other 4 year old daughter triplet raised her hand to make an announcement.  Proudly, Bryce announced that she had a new baby brother.  Without missing a beat, Darcy piped in, "He's the same one"!

Who is Gorgeous.

The whole family went to the zoo and we were playing in the petting zoo.  I was "monitoring" Avery's whereabouts.  Another parents comes up to me and looking at Avery says, "She is the most beautiful child I have ever seen."   I smiled and said, "thank you".  She then looked like she had an epiphany and said, "I mean, after my kids of course". 

What's Your Name?

It is very surprising to me that our kids are not intimidated by adults and feel free to ask questions.  A few weeks ago we were out for dinner and we were preparing to leave.  The kids started talking to our waitress and she stopped to chat.  Cooper saw her name tag and asked, "What's your name?" She replied," My name is Brandy".  Cooper looked at her and said, " I have a Yuval in my class".  She did not have anything to respond.
