Morning conversation

For those of you that know me, you know I am not a morning person.
This morning was like all mornings & I wanted to lay in bed, but I have 2 children that need me, so laying in bed is not an option right now. Kenzie comes in my room & says,
"Can I go play w/ Emmie?"
I thought, sure. I can lay here a few minutes longer while Kenzie plays w/ her sister. Kenzie takes the large bucket of legos into Emmie's room so they can play (Emmie in her crib & Kenzie on the floor.)
The girls are laughing & playing & having fun. All of a sudden Emmie squeals, but in a good way. Kenzie yells at the top of her lungs,
"You're loud & I'm not!"
I had to laugh becaus anyone that knows Kenzie knows that she is not a quiet child. LOL!!!

Word of the day

Voidium: the lever that decides how loud or soft your voice is.

(In Mackenzie's case it is stuck on LOUD!)

If you are reading these Kenzisms...

then post a comment!

Kenzie really wants to know what you think so PLEASE post a comment if you stop by & read a post. THANKS!

Where are you from?

Todayw we went to lunch at Panera. We met some people from a local mommy group. Anyway, one of the moms asked me where I was from. I said, "New York. "

Kenzie looks at the woman & says, "My mom's tummy!"

How sweet!

Tonight we were driving home from seeing Christmas lights. Emmie was asleep. Here is the conversation:

Me: "Are you my little doodlebug?"

Kenzie: "Of course!"

Me: "What am I?" (loaded question, I know...)

Kenzie: "My best friend!"

The garden

Tonight Kenz was in bed. I went in & she told me I was getting smaller. I admit I have lost a bit of weight, but with the new "top" haircut & weight loss, I look very different.
Kenzie then proceeds to tell me that I need to go ot the "tushy garden" & get a new tushy cause mine is now too small! LOL! If only it was that small!!!

More shopping!

Apparently when we were at the cute store buying up the cute, someone went to the talking store & bought up ALL the talking. In the words of Kenzie:
"Someone went to the talking store & bought up ALL the talking & then they put it in my mouth. Now I can't be quiet cause I have too much talking."

***Someone PLEASE go to the quiet store!!!

How did you get so cute?

I love to ask Kenzie this. Her reply is ALWAYS the same.

"Mommy went to the cute store & bought up some cute & then sent Daddy back to buy the rest!"

Rasty?

Kenzie LOVES to sing. She sings all day everyday. The problem, well there are 2. First she is tone deaf, but I love listening to her anyway!!! Secondly, she cannot remember all the words & tends to repeat the same verse or line over & over & over.

Tonight she was singing her rendition of "Frosty the Snowman." Kenzie's version is called "Rasty the No-man!"

Here is "Rasty!"

Kenzie "style"

Kenzie has her own "style."

Throught out this blog you will get to learn about "Kenzie styles."

Tonight we will discuss hot dogs.

A hot dog Kenzie Style is simple.

See!

Hanukkah...by Kenzie

Here's the story on Hanukah.

Once upon a time there was a king & soldiers & the king wanted them to pray to a lot of Gods. The people came in & said "the church is so messed up." Then it got dark & the bad things came in & the parents got mad & the kids started crying. Then they lit 8 candles to make it light. That's it!

Again, more North Carolina education!!!
***Kenzie called Grandpa & learned the realstory tonight
***we are going to a Hanukkah party on Sunday night at the temple in Fayetteville.

Advice from Kenzie

"Don't get your drugs from the streets. Get them from the doctor!"

Gotta love that top-notch North Carolina education!

Where is Mexico?

The other night I was looking thourgh Kenzie's backpack & came across the flyer for the PTA/Holiday Cultural Program for the school.

Each grade level is assigned a culture. For some reason I thought kindergarten was assigned Mexico. Here is the conversation:

Me: "What do you know about Mexico?"

Kenzie: "They have a boat ride!"

Looks like my child's knowledge is limited to what she sees in Disney! LOL!

Turns out that kindergarten is assigned Native Americans. So I asked Kenzie what she knows.

Me: "What do you know about Native American?"

Kenzie: "The Indians used to live in Native American before we got here. Then the Indians went to Hawaii with teeh hula dancers."

Top notch education here in North Carolina!!!

Santa Clause is coming to town....

The other day Kenzie was singing the following lyrics:

"You better watch out.
You better not cry.
You better not pout
I'm tIlling you why..."

I said "tilling?" It's tElling!!! You're a redneck!

Kenzie replied, "I'm NOT a REDNECK! I'm a PEACH NECK!!!"

Footlettes!

The other day the girls & I were at Target doing some holiday shopping. Mackenzie started whining. Here is the conversation:

I said, "What's wrong Kenzie?"

Kenzie replied, "My footlettes hurt!"

I said, "Footlettes? What are footlettes?"

Kenzie says, "The part of your feet that hurt when you do too much shopping!"

Looks like Websters ahs a new word to add to the dictionary!

The Origin of Kenzisms

Many of you may wonder why I have chosen to start a blog called "Kenzisms." It's simple. My child says some of the cutest things & I want to be able to share her fabulous sense of humor with everyone! I will try to post a "Kenzism" everyday. Enjoy!
