When Amy was round I filmed them dancing to their favourite song (Katy Perry - Fireworks)

They're all funny but in particular watch Krystal.....

In the car yesterday, Kory was trying to explain adding and subtracting to Krystal, it wasn't going too well so I decided to illustrate the point using (theoretical) apples so she could imagine having objects.  Here is the conversation that followed:

Krystal: What is zero add one?

Me: You tell me

Krystal: I don't know

Me: Ok, let's think about if the numbers are apples.  If you have zero apples and Kory gives you one apple, how many apples do you have?

Krystal: ZERO!

Me:  No, it can't be zero, where has the apple Kory gave you gone?

Krystal: I ate it!

Today Mummy was showing me photos of her and Daddy when they first started school, so thought it would be funny to put them on here with mine.

Love
Kory

I posted this photo on another site I use and it got a lot of giggles and was popular, so thought I'd pop it here too!

James spotted this, it's rather amusing!

Even Mummy's and Daddy's need a break sometimes so Kory and Krystal took over with the Sunday jobs for the day ;-)

I just wanted to record this for the future, one of those wonderful "kid comments" that would be forgotten.  While eating dinner of pasta stuffed with Tomato & Basil the other night, the conversation went something like this......

Kory:  "What are the green bits?"

Me:  "That's basil, it's a herb"

Kory:  "Oh right. Corriander is a herb too, isn't it?"

Me:  "Yeah that's right"

Quick as a flash..... 

Kory:  "I think it should be called Krystal-ander!!" 

Needless to say, James, Laura & I dissolved in fits of giggles.

Classic!

This is from one night before Christmas.  Krystal and I swapped socks, then I thought it would be a good idea to swap all of our clothes.  So we did.  We both thought it was really funny.

Then the next morning, I put some pants on my head and was running about and Krystal wanted some too, so I got her some of my pants and we were both running about.  Aren't we silly!??

I am a little fairy
On tap o' the Christmas Tree
It's no' a job I fancy
Well how would you like tae be me?

A' tarted up wi' tinsel
It's enough to mak ye boak
An a couple o' jaggy branches
Rammed up the back o' your frock!

An' these wee lights a'roon me
I canna get my sleep
An' there's the yearly visit
Fae Santa - Big fat creep!

On Christmas Day I'm stuck up here
While you're a' wirin' in
An' naebody says, "Hey you up there
Could you go a slug o' gin?"

It's nae joke bein' a fairy
The job's beyond belief.
You've got to go roon' the wean's beds
An' lift their rotten teeth.

But o' a' the joabs a fairy gets
An' I've mentioned only some;
The very worst is sitting up a tree
Wi' pine needles up yir bum.

When a' the fairies meet again
By the light of' the silvery moon,
Ye can tell the Christmas fairies
They're the wans that canna sit doon.

The Christmas tree's a bonny sight
As the firelight softly flickers
But think o' me I'm stuck up  here
Wi' needles in my knickers.

So soon as Christmas time's right by
An' I stop bein' sae full o' cheer,
I'll get awa back tae Fairyland
An' I'll see yous a' next year

Her photo appears in the gallery on this website 4 photos down as I write this. 

I loved Coral's "Itsa" so much on holiday I was noseying on their site when we got back at what other colours they have.  I saw the gallery and sent in the photo of her on it.  I exchanged a few emails with the owner (the one who appeared on Dragons Den if anyone watches it!) and kind of forgot about it again until tonight, while watching the Dragons.  So I just went for a nosey and found her looking back at me!

How cool!
