Mom, Dad's a boy, he has a peanut!

"Mom, Dad's a boy, he has a peanut!" What you may ask yourself is my 2 year old talking about? Well, lets just say our 2 year old, like all 2 year olds I know,likes to follow us absolutely EVERYWHERE we go. This includes the bathroom, the shower, the closet... you get the picture, there is no hiding anything from this kid. SO, today I just need to take a second and share some of the Gabi-isms that make her so special. I may even make you privy to some of our Bella-isms. Here are a few from today.
"Mom, Dad's a boy, he has a peanut!" this was told to me after walking in on Daddy coming out of the shower.
"Momma, GYNE(JI-NEE) PliƩ!" This was said when I was rinsing her off after her shower. This came about because, if boys have a peanut ; girls have a (JI-NEE)/ the "PliƩ" comes from the fact that her 4 year old sister takes ballet and she knows what that stance looks like.
"Oh SHit" yes this nugget came from an unfortunate run in with a Fergie song.
"Momma, me Love you!" this is my favorite, except she was saying it to her 4 year old sister, who was playing the role of Mama in their imagination play time.
"Dad....DDDAAAAD....DAAAAADDDEEEEE...............Come wipe me!" Hey, better him that me:)
Those were just a few of the words that flew effortlessly out of her mouth today.
Now, here are few of Bella's that I have to share.
"Honey, dreams don't come true...dreams are for sleeping" she says this as she grabs me by the chin,and oh so seriously informs me of the ways of the world, while looking me directly in the eye. I think she was trying to break it to me gently, my little cynic.
"Why do you make my life so miserable," this was told to me, with all the theatrics of a teenager being told they can't date, when I told her that she could not wear her dress up tutu to bed.
"Mom, well, its OK..if you die (WTH!) take this (She hands me the keys to her Happy meal diary) and you can come back to me" Wow, I had no idea it was so easy. My bigger concern is why is she not very concerned.
"Its OK if you die Mom,( its a recurring theme. WTH are they teaching her at preschool? LOL) I'll just go stay with Sarah or Nicole (my friends, the mothers of her friends)! I think I really need to explain what the word "die" means! I think she thinks it means some kind of a night out:)
Well, that was today. I can't wait to see what tomorrow brings. My girls, revolutionizing my life, 1 moment at a time.

  1. You have to love the things little ones come up with. My 4 year old recently exclaimed to his 9 yr old brother, "but you're my BROTHER, why would you this to me!" - I believe the disagreement was over the last brownie for dessert. Or when I turned off the movie for lights out at bedtime..he looks at me oh-so-seriously and says, very calmly, "how dare you..??"

    Great fun :) Loving your blog!
