"Daddy! Last night I actually slept! I mean, normally, I just close my eyes and pretend to sleep, but last night, I actually slept! I don't know what happened!"
Hmm, maybe the Monday crankies are due to all of that pretend sleeping she does.

Caly (2) has been fighting off a little cold that's making her nose run. No other real symptoms, but the snot bugs her. Generally, she asks for a tissue and wipes her nose herself. Before bed the other night, I went to pick her up to take her to bed and she wrapped her arms around my legs and gave me a hug. I smiled at how sweet it was. Then she let go, looked seriously at my stomach and said,
"Mama, I put boogers on your baby."
Then she walked away.

Sayer (1) has learned a new word. Well, he's known the word for awhile, but he uses it with a vengeance lately. I'm becoming impressed with the versatility of his uses
"No!" "NO." NOOOOOOO." "No?" "Nononononono!"
But my favorite, (yes, there is a favorite way to use the word), is when I ask him where my kisses are. Instead of leaning towards me with a smooch, he tucks his chin inward, turns his head away, and with a smirk on his face, he says, "Noooooooooo..." I pretend to be sad and he plants one right on my cheek. Then he asks to do it again.
Cuteness.

"Mommy. Mommy. MOOOMMMMY!" I vaguely registered Caly's whisper near my ear. Bleary eyed, I peered at her in the darkness and wondered what dark hour of the night she had wiggled her way in between us. "MOMMY! Are you s'eeping?"
I gave her a raised eyebrow and said, "Well, I WAS. What's the matter?" She wiggled closer to me, got her blanket and closed her eyes. "Caly, what's the matter?"
"Mama. I am S'EEPING!" And then she refused to say another word.
I am SO paying her back when she's a teenager.

ReplyDeleteMaybe you can just name baby 4 Booger!
Abby's favorite game in the world is pretending to sleep! (Not at night, mind you, like Lex!) My real trouble is when she wants to "play" sleep when I am actually ready for real sleep - I have gotten the third degree from a three year old for really falling asleep! :o)
ReplyDeleteBooger is a good nickname for a kid, you know!
MJ tell's me everyday when he gets up from nap that he didnt sleep he just laid there and rested his eyes.
