With Gracie in kindergarten all day, I spend most of my time with three-year-old Annelie... and she's pretty entertaining.Or else I'm just easily entertained. Or both. Probably both.
--------------------------
(Annelie is learning about mixing colors to get other colors)
Scene: Bathroom, getting ready for bed. Annelie spits out blue mouthwash along with some dinner she was saving in her cheeks - came out green.
ANNELIE: WOW! Food plus blue makes GREEN!
--------------------------
ME: Annelie, have you seen my face cream? My skin is dry and I need it, but can't find it anywhere.
ANNELIE: No. You should use ice cream instead.
-------------------------
ME: Annelie, I'm putting on my headphones, so if you need me when Dora's over, tap me on my shoulder.
ANNELIE: [laughs hysterically]
ME: Um, what's so funny?
ANNELIE: You said 'tap me on my shoulder.' [continues laughing hysterically]
(I'm still missing the punchline)
--------------------------
ANNELIE: I love you.
ME: Aw! I love you, too!
ANNELIE: I wasn't talking to you, Mom. I was talking to my toy pig.
----------------------------
GRACIE: I really love Justin Bieber!
ANNELIE: He sounds like a girl.
GRACIE: NO HE DOESN'T!
[epic cat fight!!]
--------------------------
ANNELIE: I'm having very clever thoughts today!
ME: Uh oh.
(and if you've been reading my blog for more than a few weeks, I'm sure you know where Annelie's clever thoughts lead!)
-------------------------
ME: Argh, I'm going crazy!!
ANNELIE: You're not crazy, Mom!
[rethinks statement]
Well, your glasses make you look pretty crazy.
-----------------------------
ANNELIE: I can count to one, you know.
ME: Okay, go.
ANNELIE: FIVE!
------------------------------
ANNELIE: Mom, remember how I like eating tabbies?
ME: Um, you like to eat cats?
ANNELIE [rolls eyes]: No! I like to eat tabbies! The Halloween candy!
ME: I'm not exactly sure what you're talking about.
ANNELIE [rolls eyes again]: Ugh! You KNOW what I'm talking about! Remember? I like to eat TABBIES!
(turns out she likes to eat Laffy Taffies)
--------------------------
Okay, that's all for today, folks! Happy Wednesday!
xoxo,
*laughs*
ReplyDeleteOh, children. They crack me up.
My favorite is the cat fight one....because he truly does sound like a girl....and the ice-cream for you face:) That's pretty awesome. Sounds kinda summer-time though. LOL
OK...totally needed that this afternoon.
ReplyDeleteThanks for the laughs and the afternoon pick me up!
Kids are precious!
I love these things! EPIC CAT FIGHT! Hahahahah!
ReplyDeleteNice to know you rank second to the toy pig :) Tabbies...nice. I'm happy that she hasn't turned to dining on Somer! Funny stuff.
