Emma walks into the office today looking like this:
Then she says in a robotic monotone:
Emma: I am a robot alien. You must move like this.
And she starts waving her arms.
Mike is Dad. Carina is Mom. Emma is our oldest daughter. Sara and Gabe are our toddler twins. This blog is about us, the funny side of life here in our little world.

Thenzer
Emma: (pounds on Carina and Mike's bedroom door) Mommy, wake uuuuuuuup!
Carina: (puts pillow back on head and rolls over)
Emma: (continues to pound on the door and then suddenly just...stops)
Carina: (sits up, listening intently because a quiet child is a trouble-making child)
Emma: (stops banging on the door, but seems to be mumbling something quietly)
Carina: (opens the door and looks down at Emma)
Emma: It worked!
Carina: What worked?
Emma: My magic word!
Carina: What magic word? Huh?
Emma: My magic word to wake you up!
Carina: What word is that?
Emma: Thenzer!
Carina: Thenzer.
Emma: (while waving her arms dramatically) Theeeeeeennnnnnnzzzzzzeeeeeeerrrr

Randomness rewritten
Emma: I'm a Polar Bear expert, I think!
Next completely unrelated one.
Emma: My nose is falling off! You're sitting on it!
And another.
Emma: Your eyebrow hair is soft, Mommy.
And one from Carina:
Carina: Where are my glasses? Oh yeah, I'm wearing my contacts... right.

70!
I do something we call baby push-ups with Emma. I lie on my back and she lies on my chest. I then put my hands on her hips and push her into the air. She counts each time I do a rep. This is how she counted today:
Emma:
One!
Two!
Three!
Four!
Five!
Six!
Seven!
Eight!
Nine!
(She starts laughing a bit at this point)
Ten!
Eleven!
Twelve!
Thirteen!
Fifteen!
(The laughing gets harder)
Twenty!
Seventy!!!
(and she completely collapses into laughter)
