If found, do a DNA test please

I pick up Jilliane's "car book". Seems innocent enough. Morris the Moose- a cute little story.  She reads it all the time in the car. So, she must like it. Clearly...because she doesn't want it to get lost...

 THEN, I open the front cover....and find...

DNA. 

Yes, that says 'my blod'. (Translation: My blood) And yes, my little sister TOOK HER BAND-AID OFF AND STUCK IT TO A BOOK!! And THEN proceeded to add blood to it every time she bled somewhere for the next few months. Apparently, it's her DNA so it won't get lost. 

Yes, I think she has watched too many crime shows...

And yes, we all think this is gross...

The Turban

So...Jilliane went through a week-or-so phase where she wore a towel thing on her head every night while she slept or just randomly through out the house. We called it the turban.

And, I'm sorry for the bad picture quality. She refuses to put it on again to take a picture. I'm just glad we got the pictures we got. But, you can see it...kinda. She just put it over and wrapped it around until it stayed.

Yes, we all got used to it and didn't even blink an eye when we saw The Turban make an appearance.

And yes, we all referred to it as "The Turban"

She's a weird one, I tell you....

Questionable Questions

Jilliane is quite a question-asker. Many people ask questions. They're good. It's how we learn.  (When she asks a particularly 'questionable' one, I write it down and transfer it to the blog later.) Here is a collection of some of the random questions Jilly asks:

"Can you get lice in your eyebrows?"

"Do you want to play communion with us?"

Jilliane: "Is there a song called 'Boom Boom Dollar'?"
Mom: "Um...I haven't heard of it. I don't think so..."
Jilliane: "Well, can we listen to it?"

"Where do you get pregnant mannequins?"

"Is it bad to drive over a grave?"

"Does it hurt to get your tongue cut, like a snake?"

"Why did I wear flip flops? PAUSE. "Why do people ask questions they maybe do or don't know the answer to?"

"Wait....motorcycles have license plates?!?"

"Mom, how old were you in the eighties? Did you ever see a guy with a giant afro poking his hair?"

"Can you put a wiener dog in a purse?"

At the dinner table:  "Daddy, if you were really rich...what type of bath tub would you have?"

In the car:  "What does a baby lion look like when it gets out of its mom's tummy? Is it pink?"

"How does weather work?"

Jilliane: "Why does your mouth have to be wet?"
Mom: "I don't know..."
Jilliane: "Well, you should. You're an adult."

"Why do a lot of elderly people like applesauce?"

"Is Wells Fargo good?" (as in a good restaurant...we were discussing where to eat.)

"Dad, did you go to school in a one-room school house?"

"You know how cowboys shoot their guns into the air? Well, where does the bullet go?"

"Can we go to Cinemark to watch a three-hour movie?" (Three hour movie....okay???)

"SERIOUSLY?!? IT IS 10:00?!? *pauses and is quiet for a minute* "Is that late?"

"You know how I get quiet when I am mad?" (This was only funny because of how ridiculously untrue it was...that child....my goodness...)

I thought this picture totally perfects the post...the entire blog, actually...:)

Anyone know how to answer all these?

Marriage?

Jilliane talks about her future and wedding constantly. And it changes constantly too. Here are some of her ideas from over the years:

1. She's going to marry Christmas. (Get it? Lol:))

2. She's going to have an "Under-the-Sea" wedding, with a LONG dress. 

3. Her wedding will be at the beach. 

4. She's not going to get married.

5. She wants a NEON wedding. (Complete with neon dress(es), lights, tuxedo, etc)

6. Her wedding MIGHT be on the moon.

7. It will only have "a little bit of people".

8. Her fiancee will come. (The fiancee is a fabulous addition to any wedding. Get yours today! And yes, she actually told me this one day...as all the other things as well....)

9. At the end of the ceremony, her dad will say jokes. "Funny ones."

10. Everyone is going to swim at our house afterwards- for the party.

11. She will have shrimp to eat.

12. Her groom will wear capri pants. (because she is going to wear a dress that goes half-way below her knees, and he can't have long pants if she wears a 'kinda-short' dress.)

13. Her wedding will be in Disney World.

14. Her wedding will be "outside, near (not in) a little white church. Not near a neighborhood or anything like that."

15. Her dress will "not be a big pouf, but not djhfajhf (some weird sound she made) skinny and tight."

She declared this little covering a place that could be for a wedding.

You have to admit...the girl has got ambitions...hopefully, her 'fiancee' will be all for it. (And able to keep up with her...you know, IF he is invited...)
