Maliya Moments...

I'm going to start posting funny things Maliya says during the day. Then when I'm having one of those days I can look back and smile :)
* Anytime we are eating together and she finishes first she has to brag that she beat me and she's the WINNER! when I ask what I am she says "slow" or "not the winner"
*Maliya looked at me today and said "Mom you know I Love You right?" 7/1/08
*Today Maliya came in the house from out side upset she said " I was riding my bike and it tipped over. I almost died" 7/10/08
* Maliya was out on the playground with her cousins this morning and she ran in the house screaming. when I asked her what was wrong she said " I broke my nose" It seems she bumped head with another cousin after a minute of hugs and loves she was ready to play again. 7/12/08
*Maliya was bending over to do something and ended up falling flat on her face. I couldn't help but laugh out loud. She glared up at me and furrowed her eyebrows and said "mom don't laugh at me ok it hurts my feelings I'm gonna spank your bum and put you in time out!!" It took alot of restraint to stop laughing! 7/15/07
* I was making my Walmart list the other day and asked Maliya what we needed. She said "I need a new toy" I told her she hadn't been a very good girl that day so we were not going to buy any toys. She looked up at me with the big blue eyes and said " Can I get a boy toy mom? Have I been a good boy today?" 7/18/07
* Maliya has alot of pretend friends. Her latest are Simba and Nala from the Lion King. She asked Matt if he wanted to hold Nala for a little bit she said "don't worry dad she won't poop on you" 7/18/07
*Matt was putting on Maliyas shoes for church and told her how pretty they were. She said "thanks dad they don't fit my two fat sisters" it took a second to realize she was talking about her "step sisters" always pretending to be Cinderella. Later that night we were watching (surprise) Cinderella and we were at the part were they are trying on the glass slipper and she says "mom that slipper won't fit them because it's mine" 7/20/08
*Last night I was coming out of the pantry and there was a cricket on the floor. I let out a short scream and then killed it. I told Maliya I hated bugs. she said " Mom just sweep it in the pantry and then I'll shut the door k" I thought about it... but I had to pick it up and throw it away. 7/20/08
*Maliya was telling me how much she loves her Uncle Spencer. I said it was funny when he picks her up and throws her in the air. She said "it's cuz he thinks I'm a basketball" 7/20/08
*Grammie was helping Maliya go potty and Maliya tells her " when you pee in the potty the pee goes down to see it's family when you flush it." No idea where she got that one? 7/21/08
* This morning Matt gave Maliya her cereal and then went downstairs to get ready. She starts to scream at the top of the lungs that she needs her cartoons on. My mom come out and asks what do you need? She continues to yell about cartoons. Matt runs upstairs and tells her to stop yelling people are still asleep, she looks at him and still yelling says "but it's summertime" it made me mom laugh! 7/28/08
* Today we were swimming and playing Lion King, kitty cats and of course princesses. Maliya asked if I would be the princess and she would be the prince and I agreed. Then she smiles really big and says "when should we kiss and hug?" Look out boys! 7/28/08

* We went to a Family Reunion this past week. While we were in the bathroom Maliya saw an almond on the floor near the potty. She looks up at me and asks "mom who pooped a nut?" 7/31/08

Chicken Little


My dad got some new baby chicks and Maliya is in love! Everyday she wants to go see and pet the chickens, she named this one "mom chicken". Pretty soon they will be to big to hold and I'm not going to go catch a full grown chicken for her to hold. Last Sunday her and her cousin Logan decided to throw random things in the chicken's box including... food storage cans, fake flowers,and random things from the garage. When we found them Maliya had the weed whacker in her hands I'm sure ready to toss in!! The poor chicken were piled on top of each other (24 of them) in the corner trying not to get crushed! We had to explain that chicken don't need toys and if you give them things they could die. She has been doing a lot better!

Daddy's Toe !!




Matt was helping his dad move a water heater on Wednesday and as you can see didn't go so well. When they lifted the box out of the truck it fell and crushed his big toe! We got it checked out and it's not broken just VERY bruised and swollen. Poor guys he is in a lot of pain! He had to go to work the next day in a shirt and tie, dress slacks and flip flops! It was so swollen he couldn't wear a shoe! This picture is two days later and it looks a whole lot better now! Maliya has been very concerned about her dad. She even limps around the house with him. We just keep it iced and elevated and pray that no body bumps it!

Happy 4th of July!!!








We had a great 4th of July!! Our ward had breakfast at 7 with games for the kids. Afterwards there was a bike parade for all the kids! This is Maliya on her bike, she thought it was fun to decorate in red,white and blue (she tried to get pink in there too) Then we went and hit some 4th of July sales at the Home Stores. Came home and played some games together. Later we went to Matt's parents house for a BBQ and came home and watched the fire works from the balcony! Maliya was scared the fireworks would be too loud so she watched them with Grammie on Grammies bed. Maybe next year we can watch them from our house!It was just a really fun/relaxed day and we got to spend it together!! I'm so thankful for our country and our freedoms!!
