Shiloh Says... [Part 2]

... because this girl still makes me laugh. A LOT.



(Brace yourself... there are a lot of these!)

N: "Before we cross the road, we need to do what...?"
S: [in exasperated tone] "Look both ways for kids..."

* "I got choked... there was a bone in my juice."

* "I do a lot of dropping, don't I? But yetis do too." [see Yeti Stomp video]

* "Did you see that little tree I was talking about? It's a baby tree. It wanted to grow into a mommy tree but it couldn't."

(Doing a devotion about waiting for good things)
C: "Shi, have you ever had to wait for something good?"
(She nods)
"What were you waiting for?"
S: "For God to come."

* "Daddy did a great job getting me dressed. He didn't turn this around" (points to shirt).

* "Swimming sure made me a lot of thirsty."

(Getting into the hot car)
"Mommy, it's hot... will you turn on the conditioner?"

S: "Daddy, will you carry me?"
N: "Why don't you walk, sweetheart."
S: "But I don't want any more exercise!"

* "How does God tinkle and poop?"

* "Mommy, I need some water... that candy went down the wrong pipe."

(Using restroom)
"I'm going to need some privacy."

(Talking about how attitude shows what's in her heart)
C: "What do you want to have in your heart?"
S: "Good things."
C: "What types of good things?"
S: "Fish, and treadmills, and... raccoons."

* "Let's high five!"

S: "Daddy went to get my surprise."
C: "Yes he did. I wonder what it will be?"
S: "Maybe a hot gun."
C: "A what??"
S: "A hot gun. Maybe he's bringing me a hot gun."
C: "Ummm... what? What does a hot gun do?"
S: "It makes glue... it's what glue comes out of."
C: "OH! A hot glue gun... right?"
S: "Yep."

(After picking up Nick's cousin Scott)
S: "Daddy, where are we going?"
N: "Home."
(sad face)
"Why, what's wrong?"
S: "I want to go pick up some more guys."

* "I'm not scared of the dark. I have beautiful eyes that help me see in the dark."

C: "Shi, please be sure to put the flashlight back in the drawer when you're finished."
S: "Well, it's in the bathroom so I can use it in the dark. It says, 'Yes, I want to be in here right now.' "

MawMaw: "What are you going to do with your hammer?"
S; "Ham."

(Discussing disobedience)
S: "But God shows me gracey."
C: "You mean God shows you grace and mercy?"
S: "Yes."

(Potty time)
S: "I'm finished!"
C: "Did you [go #2]?"
S: "No... I think I'm going to wait until baby brother gets here... until he's born."

(Yelling loudly in Target to get my attention)
"MOMMY!!!!!!!! Mommy I need to go POTTY REALLY BAD!!!!! If I don't my BOTTOM WILL GET INFECTED!!!!!!!!!"

*(while I was pregnant)
"Hurry, Mommy!! Hurry and eat all your food before baby brother growls again!"

C: "Your bottom isn't quite big enough to fill out the big potty seat yet, is it?"
S: "No, but yours is."
C: "Yes, yes mine is."
S: "But daddy's isn't. He has to stand up."

C: "Shiloh, who is your best friend?"
S: "You are, Mommy."

* "I need to file my nails too... they're getting a little trimmy."

(out of the blue, breaking silence in the car; Shiloh begins chuckling)
S: "Daddy can't be a captain! He's a boy!!"
C: "Umm... boys can be captains...?"
N: "Shiloh, what is a captain?"
S: "Captains are not anything. They're pirates."

(all 3 of us out in her baby pool; pre-Caleb)
* "Daddy, you got BIG MAN BOOBIES!!!!!! Mommy has big mommy boobies. I got little girl boobies."

(to Caleb, the first time they meet)
* "You're part of our family."

S: "I wish I didn't have 2 eyes."
C: "How many would you like to have?"
S: "Just 1..." (smashing the other one closed)
C: "Why just one?".
S: "Cause, like I have just one nose."

(singing to the tune of "Oh my darling, Clementine")
* "Oh my child, oh my child, oh my child, Clementine! You were lost and I couldn't find you... but the sun and a flashlight will help me find you."

N: "Shiloh, were you trying to take your brother's pacifier?"
S: "Umm, nope! Well... probably a little."

S: "Who were you talking to [on the phone]?"
N: "Mr. X." [name removed for privacy ;)]
S: "Is he prickly?"
N: "Umm... I don't know... why?"
S: "Cause... I need to feel his back to see if he is prickly."

(after weighing herself on scale)
N: "Go tell Mommy how much you weigh."
S: "Mommy, Mommy!! I weigh 9-1-1."
C: "9-1-1? Really?"
S: "Yes. I need to STOP [thrusts hands our in front of her], drop, and roll."

[in reference to a lady who had stopped to comment on how cute Caleb was as she walked past]
* "She sounds like a daddy."

* "Mommy, you're my majesty, and Daddy, you're my king."

[asking questions at bedtime to stall]
S: "Mommy, I have a question."
C: "OK, 1 more question."
S: "My last question has a lot of questions."

N: "How are you doing, baby girl?"
S: "Umm, a little bit good."
C: "Why just a little bit good?"
S: "Cause, that's just how I feel sometimes."

* "That would be a LOVELY help!"

N: "I really love you, Shiloh."
S: "I love turkeys."

* "Hey! Yoda and Mia live in a skyscraper."
(which, of course, they do not.)

(talking about my haircut)
* "It looks good, Mom. So did they use a knife or what?"
