When RaeAnn saw Despicable Me she thought the bomb beds Gru had for the girls were so cool! Tonight out of no where she kept telling me she really wants bomb beds with a ladder and everything, I was SO confused until I realized she was talking about BUNK BEDS!! Dur Mom!!!

After telling her to clean up her room for the fifth time yesterday RaeAnn told me she was going to run away from home...Here's how the conversation played out....

RaeAnn : Mom, I can't stand you!!!!! I'm running away from home!!!!
Mom : OK, where are you going to go?
RaeAnn : West Virginia
Mom : how are you going to get there? It's pretty far ya know.
RaeAnn : well I'm gonna walk, but when I get tired I'm going to come back home and get a water and then I'm gonna leave again

Good idea RaeAnn, have fun with that!

not necessarily a RaeAnnism per say...but just to show off her sassy attitude...
Yesterday when putting up the Christmas tree Thurman and I were "loudly discussing" where to put the tree without having to rearrange the whole living room...RaeAnn chimes in "wow, I thought this was going to be more exciting"

and while looking for Christmas shoes at Target, she fell in love with a pair of shiny purple shoes...I said "oh you really like those?" She said loud enough to get everyone in the aisle to laugh "Dur Mom, they're purple!" I'm really not looking forward to her teenage years!!

Last Sunday at Church, RaeAnn told me she would like the church to have a yard sale so she could buy their podium microphone and put it in her bedroom...just what she needs!!

RaeAnn was looking through The Great Big Toys R Us Book for the 100th time when we heard her say "Where are those damn video games?!"

RaeAnn was changing into her pj's when she decided she really needed to pee. So she left her clean underwear and nightgown in the living room and ran to the bathroom...a couple minutes later she came out with toliet paper stuffed between her legs and I said "what in the heck are you doing?!" she said "I'm using this for underwear!!"

RaeAnn just ran out of her room screaming, Thurman went in there to see what was wrong...She said "Did you see the gorilla in there????"
