Out of the mouth of Babes

I feel badly for always making post about Carmen, but she is just so funny sometimes. And she says some really funny things. I have two funny stories to relate.

One night at dinner we had mashed potatoes. Carmen saw me add salt and pepper to mine and wanted to do the same to hers. She started with pepper and only added a little. Then she DUMPED the salt on into a little salt mountain atop her fluffy potatoes. I told her it was going to taste bad and she might not want to eat them anymore. She insisted that's was how she wanted them and scooped up a big spoonful. She made the disguested face and barely managed to swallow. So I said, "I told you it was going to be too much salt." To which she replied, "not salt, too much Dr. Pepper!!". I about peed my pants from laughing so hard. Of course she meant to say pepper, but she has a mommy who likes Dr. Pepper and always hears me order it when we go out to eat. It was just so funny!

The other story was one morning this week she woke up and immediately wanted some apple juice. I tried to convince her that she needed to drink some milk before she could have juice. She asked why she needed to drink milk. I replied by saying milk has calcium that will make her bones strong. She replied back by saying, "well I want juice...with SUGAR!". Now you have to imagine her saying with a lot of attitude, because that is how she says everything lately. Once again I almost peed my pants from laughing so hard. I just never know what she is going to say next!!
