More Ariana and Annika

Since my last post about the things my cute nieces Ari and Anni say, I've heard and remembered a few more.

We were at the store (a few years ago) getting some food and other things when we went down the aisle where the milk is. A lady was there getting milk, she grabbed three or four gallons so Ari said...
  • Lady, don't take all of it!

I tried to tell Ari that there was enough milk for everyone but I was laughing too hard to explain it to her or to really care.

I was just in California with the family, at night my dad would usually tell my nieces bedtime stories. One night Annika walked up to my dad and said...

  • Grandaddy, if you don't tell me a story tonight I'll call you stupid Grandaddy but if you do tell me a story I'll call you King Grandaddy.

Anni really loves story time.

When Ari was a little younger we would watch her and Annika while Kelie and JR were at work. As nice as I usually am and as much as I spoil my nieces, sometimes I had to lay down the law and be an enforcer. When this would happen and I had to tell Ari not to do something, she would always try to think of something smart to say back to me. A few times she really couldn't think of anything right away so after thinking for a few seconds she would say...

  • Oh yeah, well, you're in a wheelchair!

Ari is pretty clever and very good at stating the obvious.

On Ari's birthday Anni was sitting at the table eating breakfast when she said to Kelie...

  • For my birthday when I turn five, I want Robbie to have a sleep over.

How cute are my nieces?

More to come...
