Afton: When Kenton walked out of the room, Afton grabbed the wipes and yelled, "Come here Daddy! We need to change your diaper!"
Fall of 2011
Afton every time we got outside, "It's Chirvy". (English translation: It's Chilly)

Huck came to play with us today while his mom was sick. They are such good friends! They jumped on the bed together, shut themselves in closets, and danced with Elmo! While playing, Huck figured out that if he stood behind Afton, put his hands on her back, and walked forward, it would force Afton to walk forward too. He thought it was pretty funny- Afton did not. I kept telling Afton that he was just trying to play with her and that she should just go with it. After a few minutes Afton kept saying, "Stop, stop. stop" Huck couldn't stop- can you blame him? A few seconds later, Afton stopped, refused to go forward, crossed her arms across her chest and yelled at the top of her lungs, "BE NICE!!!!"

After listening the Belle&Sebastian's "Blues are still Blue" in the car, Afton says- clear as day, with no hesitation- "I like that song" (we are pretty happy she has a good taste in music)

A conversation that went on while I was trying to make dinner. . .
Kenton: Babe, where is my wallet.
Brittney: In my purse.
a few minutes later. . .
Kenton: Babe, where is my wallet.
Brittney: In my purse, in the closet.
a few minutes later. . .
Kenton: Babe, I really need you to tell me where my wallet is.
Brittney: I did, it is in my purse in the closet.
Kenton: I can't find it.
Brittney: (after going to the closet) Look, my purse is right here. It is in my purse.
Kenton: Oh, I thought this (picking up my wallet that he found in my purse) was called a purse. I was so confused- I was wondering how my wallet would fit in your purse.
OH THE WONDERFUL DIFFERENCES OF MEN AND WOMEN
Winter 2011-2012
Afton anytime she is in the tub, "My hand are angery"
I couldn't figure this out for the longest time but I just realized- she thinks wrinkly and angry are the same word!

Afton: "Mommy, I'm scared. I'm scared."
Me: "Afton, what are you scared of?"
Afton: "The ants, the ants."
Me: "Where are the ants?"
Afton: pointing to our speckled carpet, "Right there, right there"

We learned about the Atonement this week for family home evening. Kenton told Afton that if she used the atonement, she would be able to live with mommy and daddy forever.
Today Afton was talking with her dog Violet in her room. She said, "Ya, you can live with mommy and daddy forever!"
Melted my heart!
