My friend, Walker's mom wrote a post on her blog about funny and cute conversations they've had. My mommy said that was a good idea, so here are some things we've talked about recently:
Introducing my pet rock to Mommy:
Katie: Mommy, look! It's my Rocky.
Mommy: Well, hi Rocky. It's nice to meet you. You're so cute!
Katie: No, Mommy. Silly! Rocky not so cute. I so cute!
This is not really a conversation, but more of my crazy routine every night at bedtime:
Routine:
- Take a bath, brush teeth and hair, put on pajamas
- Watch "CattheHat"
- Read 3-5 stories in the chair with Mommy, say prayers (list everything and everyone I can think of)
- Get in bed (get 20-25 goodnight kisses and hugs) and listen to T.J. Bearytales
- Get out of bed about 3 minutes after Mommy leaves and run to door, open it, yell out, "WATERBANDAIDCUPPLEASEGOODBYE," slam door, run back to bed
- Wait
- Mommy brings water cup, more kisses and hugs, "Love you MUCH," Mommy leaves
- Get out of bed a few minutes later and yell out, "WATER GONE! DROP CUP?" Mommy yells up, "Yes, you can drop the cup on the floor outside your door."
- Then, I say, "Ok, thanks," drop cup, yell, "BANDAIDPLEASE!"
- Run back to bed
- Wait for Mommy.
- She brings up a bandaid, then I tell her where it needs to be placed (one night this week, it was on the bottom of my foot ... did you know that bandaids don't really stick that well to the bottom of your foot?!)
- 5 more "goodnights" and hugs/kisses, and finally I'm ready to go to sleep!
- PHEW!
Another routine:
Every night at dinner (usually when Daddy's out of town):
Mommy and Katie: God is great, God is good, let us thank him for our food. Amen!
Katie: No, wait! And thank you milk. Amen.
Katie: No wait! And thank you Mommy's drink. Amen.
Katie: No wait! And thank you green beans, chicken (points to and names every food on her plate), thank you napkin, thank you poon (spoon), thank you ... umm, umm, (looking for something that has not been mentioned) ... that's all. Amen!
Mommy: Amen!
Getting my thermometer out of the drawer:
Katie: Mommy! I sick! Please take temperature(actually some word that sounds kind of like tempeh-peh-tu).
Mommy: You're sick? Oh, no! Well, I guess we can't go to Soccer today.
Katie: Yes, I DO sick. I feel sick. I get my (tempeh-peh-tu).
Mommy: Okay, let's take your temperature and see if you have a fever. (Takes temperature.) Nope, you're fine. Not sick at all!
Katie: I NOT sick. Thanks, Mommy!
Playing with the plastic food:
Katie: What's this? (holds up a pear)
Mommy: That's a pear.
Katie: No, that's not a pear. That's apple. What's this? (holds up an eggplant)
Mommy: That's an eggplant.
Katie. No, that's not eggplant. That's pickle.
Mommy: No, this is a pickle. It's green. (Mommy holds up the pickle.)
Katie: No, that's not pickle. What's this? (holds up mushroom)
Mommy: That's a mushroom.
Katie: No, that's not mushroom. That's pickle. What's this?
Mommy: That's a banana.
Katie: Yes! That's bo-nee-na!
Mommy and I love to say this ALL the time:
Mommy: Guess what!
Katie: What?
Mommy: I love you MUCH!
Katie: Awww! Love you much, too! Guess what, Mommy!
Mommy: What?
Katie: Princess Katie.
Mommy: Awwww! (This goes on for about 20 more times. We both say the same thing each time.)
