  5. That is hilarious! kids today are too smart! My soon-to-be-3 year old told my husband to “Change the clock!” when he was told it was time for bed 🙂

  9. So I’m gonna go out on a limb here and say you better figure out how to get 2 steps ahead by the time this one is in grade school 😉

  13. Oh my goodness!! I love it!! Sadie is hysterical!! My Sadie cracks me up too…one day in conversation she asked why I get to do something and I said “because I’m the mom”. Sadie says to me “but I’m the next mom”. I just about died. What a moment.

  15. LOL!!! totally reminds me of my 7 year old at that age! always trying to negotiate and make us laugh to get out of a sticky situation! i will never forget the day that he cried when we were trying to get him to ride the short bus to preschool and he yelled “but you told me to never go with strangers and i don’t know this creepy old guy!!” gotta love them! and yes, she is a total mini j in that pic!

  17. That really is a dangerous combination!!! 🙂 Oh Steph, I love the expression on her face!! She’s got that one down pat! 🙂

  21. Gorgeous!!!! And SMART. Woman, you are in TROUBLE!!!! (mine is like that too although I might be biased – haaa!)

  22. That is sooooo funny! She is amazing! LOVE that face!Yep you’ll have to watch out cause she is smart! Hope you get your stuff soon!

  29. What a smart cookie she is!!! LOL, I can’t believe your stuff is still in Savannah – I’d be having an anxiety attack by now – you’re much more patient than I am 🙂

  32. Totally loved her reply and she So looks like your hubby in this pic…didn’t see it before but so do now ! I try not to smile with the things the boys say too 🙂 but sometimes you can’t help it can you.

  34. a picture is worth a thousand words…but, GOOD GOSH, thank you for including words because they are hysterical! i like to imagine i was a lot like Sadie when i was a kid, witty and quick on my feet. 🙂

  35. I think I may have awakened the boy sleeping on the couch with this one. Well played, indeed Sadie! I wish I’d written down the many funny things my kids said. I just didn’t have the mind of a scrapbooker back then.

  40. LOL, awesomeness. I’d probably tell her you thought they were already on and start looking and tickling her. 🙂

  41. So hilarious!!! And I was thinking the exact same thing…..how much she resembles J…..this is such a priceless shot, how on earth did you capture it? This you have to scrap for SURE,

  45. oh my gosh! Patience panties…hilarious!!! I need to find me some of those too! 😉

  47. too cute! That comment would be something my 5 yr old would say!! How is it the little ones are too smart for our own good sometimes?? LOL

  48. Oh my look at that face! lol How do you not just wet your pants laughing after that comment and expression? I love your Blog you are so creative and your kids stories make me cry with laughter and stories when your husband was at war or surprised your Harper with flowers at the door just made me make my own ugly face and cry! I look forward to the “snow” adventures in RI! haha I could just imagine your little fashionista and your Sadie when they see all the snow that falls there! Enjoy and thank you for making me laugh. Grace

  78. still witty and quick on my feet. 😉 she will be. you’re doing an AWESOME job with all your girls! (and sisters really are the best :))

  80. haha. I love that you thought to yourself, “well played.” Sometimes the things my four year old says to me leave me blinking at her, because that’s all i can do. when did they start getting so smart ?!?!?!

  87. Oops sorry, mispelled Lucy’s name….typing with my big thumb on the ipad doesn’t help…LOL;)
