Boys a 1 in 200 year event

The other day I was talking to Abigail. I asked her if she thought we should have another baby. I also asked her if she would want it to be a boy or a girl. Here's what she said.

Abigail: No.

Me: Why not?

Abigail: Because I have 1,000 babies in my tummy already.

Me: Wow! Really?

Abigail: Yes, I have 1,000 girl babies and 5 boy babies in my tummy.

As I laughed, I wondered if I need to remember this conversation so I can offer full disclosure to any prospective husbands. If they want sons, they might have to look somewhere else.

Drive Thru Window

Eve found our “hands-free headset” for our telephone, and decided to play with it. She was very cute with it on, and I told her she looked like a drive thru worker at McDonalds. Here’s the conversation that followed.

Eve: This is McDonalds, can I have your order.

Me: Yes, I’d like a double quarter pounder with cheese with no onions.

Eve: Uh… we don’t have that.

Me: Ok, I’ll take a large order of fries and some onion rings.

Eve: Uh… we don’t have that either.

Me: OK, what do you have?

Eve: We have doughnuts.

Me: Alright, I’d like two dozen Krispy Kreme plain glazed doughnuts.

Eve: Let me check, Oh, I’m sorry, we’re out.

Me: You’ve got to have something… How about a milkshake.

Eve: Yeah, you can have a milkshake … but it will taste like water.


I busted up laughing. This exchange would pass as most peoples worst restaurant visit ever, and Eve made it all up naturally. What a funny girl. I adore my creative and goofy Eve.
