Tea Party Protection

 Question of the day, posed by DH:

"Why does my little girl have a PISTOL in her tea set?"

Can you tell he works outside the home six days a week?  ;)

Jab and Duck

 Who on earth ever thought it a good idea to arm a toddler with a fork?

No Surprises Here

C just dropped the iPod dock remote in the toilet.

This is, all things considered, not an astonishing status update.

In This Episode

 If you are ever foolish enough to get beanie babies of your toddler's favorite TV show characters, and then are foolish enough to let her sleep with all five, you get what you deserve when "they" stay up all night singing their theme song and acting out episodes!

Who's the Loudest?

She's running around yelling "SHUT UUUUUUUP!" at the top of her lungs. J asked, "Why is she yelling 'shut up?'"

H replied, "She's been around us too long."

That really can be taken two ways, can't it?

One Man's Trash

Got a box from Amazon today - C's probiotics, complete with a freezer pack. I gave her the box and she opened it. She poured out the contents. J took the probiotics and the freezer pack to the kitchen. C piled all the packing peanuts. She gestured to them with one hand and the box with the other, and exclaimed,

"Ooooooh! It's perfect!! Thank you so much!"

As Anticipated

 C's forehead now sports an official Purple Goose Egg of Toddlerhood.

You wouldn't really expect that we'd get through HER toddler years without at least one, would you?

Am I Your Banker?

C is playing in the laundry basket at my feet.  Suddenly she turns to me, holds up her hands, and says, "Where's my money?  I need it now!"

What?!?!

Her Currency

A great toddler punishment around here:  being held.
