Dottie Talk.

I've mentioned it before, and yes, I'm rubbing it in... Graham's school has a 5 week summer program which started yesterday. Yay. Graham and I were equally excited as he got on the bus.

I couldn't wait to spend some 1:1 time with Dottie. When Graham is around, Dottie is not allowed to do anything, touch a toy, read a book, sing, dance or even talk. He dictates her every move. He's a typical jerky big brother.

So as soon as he was gone, I took her to the playground for a couple hours. As I got her buckled into her car seat she showed me a little yellow flower that she'd picked, I asked her how it smelled, which led to this conversation that almost made me run the car off the road:



"It smell nice. Booful. It not smell like poop. Me not pooping. Flower not pooping."

No, flowers don't poop.

"Me poop in diaper. Mommy poops on potty."

That's right Sweetie.

"Flower not have diaper."

Does the flower have a name?

"It name doggie. It like a wolf. Like puppies."

That's a good name for a flower.

"It not have fwip fwops. It not have feet. Graham have fwip fwops."

You're so dang cute....Did you have fun at the playground?

"Me did. Me running..... OH!! Look out! Fwiper coming!!"

What's Swiper doing?

"Fwiper the Fox! Him in a forest. Him sneaky."

He is very sneaky.

"Oh no! I see Ahmadildo!"

A what?

"See it? Ahmadildo! Him in trouble! Fwiper gonna get Ahmadildo! Me save him. FWIPER NO FWIPING!!"

Did you save the ARMADILLO?

"Me did. Me like Ahmadildo. Him nice."

Good job Dottie.

"Me like you Mom. Me like my friend Daddy too."

Mommy and Daddy like you too.

"Me like Graham. Him nice."

Really Sweetie? Graham's nice to you.

"Yeah. He like my brother. He my friend."

You'd better go check her crib, because I'm pretty sure I just virtually squeezed her so tight, her head's popped off.

Sorry about that.

In other news. The boy. Is. Here. I just confiscated a lighter. I love my kid. Yes, I do.

Oooooh, I have raging PMS hormones right now and that dose of Dottie deliciousness was almost too much to handle.

Damn, I've already had some Ben and Jerry's once today, but it looks like the handpacked pint I brought home for Hubby isn't going to make it into his stomach.........

And, btw, PINK is definitely the way to go for little girls' rooms. :D (Safari animals optional.)

Another great Kid-n-Swiper related post can be found on one of my favorite blogs, Velcrometer. Here's a link that I think should work: http://velcrometer.blogspot.com/search?q=swiper
