What Gracie says

After 2 cups of hot chocolate Steve asked Gracie if she was gonna be bouncing off the walls in a minute. She answered "yep" while looking around at the walls. She then walked into the living room and Steve asked her what she was doing. Her response? "I'm gonna jump on the walls!"

Steve was reminding Gracie she needed to be quiet at bed time and was telling her the consequences if she wasn't. He asked her what she was gonna be and she looked him square in the face and said "A horsey?" Hmmm.... Where does she get her sarcasm from?

Talking about Ellie: "Sometimes she is not a nice baby. Sometimes she's a cry baby."

Driving past a hair salon in Marysville there is a window with a strawberry painted on it. "Mom, that strawberry is wearing shoes. (very matter of factly) That's silly. Mom, that strawberry has hair. (again, very matter of fact) That's silly."

While she was disobeying, she told Steve "Well, God says obey. God says obey your moms and dads and Ellie's"

I've been talking to her about telling the truth lately so when ever she disobeys and Steve or I tells her she needs to obey she says back "We-ll, the truth is not obeying!"

Gracie snuck into our room during the night and the next morning Steve was asking her how she slept and why she came into our room. She told him she was scared in her room. He asked her why she was scared and she said "I don't know, I was just freaking out!"

Grace and the cousins were gonna play Simon Says. Rachel said "I"m Simon!" Gracie said "I"m Theodore!"

After my in laws were here for dinner: "Mom you did a good cooking when Grandma and Grandpa were here."

Noticing we only had two string cheeses left in the drawer "I thought we were gonna save them for Micah and Tyler"
