Laughing to Pieces!

Farryn is cleaning her room this morning...each time she loads a toy in the box Charlye sneaks around and takes one out. It took ten minutes for Farryn to get this and when she finally realized what her little sister was doing she yells out..."Oh you little bwat! Do it again and I'm gonna spank you into little Charlye pieces!!!" (Never before have I used that expression but I just might have to now!) :)

Can you see me now?

Me: "Farryn I told you to leave my earrings in their box!!!"
Farryn: "HOW DID YOU KNOW I WAS STILL MESSIN WITH IT?"
Me: "Remember, eyes in the back of my head little girl!"

She then stops what she is doing, walks up behind me as I'm sitting in my computer chair responding to emails and then pokes me with her two fingers in the back of my head.

Farryn: "Try to see me now!"

Gossip Girl

These Gossip Magazines sure are exhausting!

Say What?

"Hannah Tanna" is one of our favorite shows. Probably more so my favorite than Farryn's but we try to watch it every day at during TV time. If you haven't caught an episode Miley always says funny little catchy sayings. "Sweet Nibblets" Lol, and one of the things she does is takes an incident that is happening, repeats it and ends it with "say what?"... For an example: "Best friend likes my obnoxious brother say what?" So Farryn walks around the house and says "Hannah Tanna say what?" quite often.

The other day we are driving and a guy pulls right out infront of me forcing me to swerve into the next open lane. Farryn yells out "SWEET NIBBLES, Mama can't drive, say what?" :)

Sunflowers vs. Roses

Farryn: "Mama, when are you gonna get married again?"

Me: "I'm already married to Jesse, why would I marry someone else?"

Farryn: "Because...he always gives you Sunflowers and those aren't my favowite, you need to marry someone who will give you roses....PINK ONES!"

;) Hopefully one day she'll realize flowers are flowers, they are great to get no matter what kind they are! Unless she finds a guy who knows her "favowite" are PINK ROSES!!

I love ORKIES!

I've been wanting a little dog for a while now, a non-shedding cute little lap dog. Probably the last thing I really need right now but with Farryn starting school in the fall and Charlye Girl being home with me I thought a little dog would be fun for her to play with since our big labradoodle could really care less...about anything! He just lays around, Charlye climbs all over him and he takes it but you can tell half the time he's just miserable. A small dog might give him a little break from all the torture so I have my heart set on a Yorkie! My best friends mother is a breeder so we've decided the next litter we'll hopefully take one of the available puppies depending on how many she ends up having. I probably opened my mouth too soon but now all Farryn can talk about is her future "ORKIE!" She cannot wait until we have the "tutest lil orkie to dress up in tute tu-tu's and bows!" I hear about it constantly now! While giving her a bath today the following conversation occured....

Farryn: "So, Mama, what are we gonna name our Orkie?"
Me: "I don't know...how about Macy?"
Farryn: "Um....No."
Me: "Okay...how about Barbie" (hoping she would agree so the conversation could end.)
Farryn: "YEAH! Or STRIPPER!!!"
Me: "WHAT?"
Farryn: "STRIPPER...you know Mama, Barbie's lil sister!"
Me: (now laughing) "You mean SKIPPER...right!?"
Farryn: (dead serious expression) "Um....that's what I said MOM! STRIPPER!"

So now we are patiently waiting for our Orkie, Stripper. ;)

Charlye's 1st conversation...ever!

We've been working on saying "thank you!" and "welcome!" with Charlye. So when I put her down for bed and give her a sippy cup she usually says "Dink ya MAW". Today I'm laying her down and I start talking to her like I normally do and the following conversation happened. Now keep in mind she's only 18 months old....so this was my 1st conversation with her, EVER!

Me: "Are you ready for a nap? I think you are, you look sleepy!"

Charlye: "OOOHHH NOOOO!!!"

Me: "What? You don't want to take a nap?"

Charlye: "NO! NO! NO!"

Me: "Well you need to Charlye, you'll be grumpy, do you want your sippy?"

Charlye: "Yea-YUM!"

Me: "Yum!?!"

Charlye "Dink you Maw!"

Me: "Welcome"

Charlye: "Weltome!"

Me: "Love you sweet girl!"

Charlye: "Love ya Maw!"

Me: "Did you just say Love ya Ma?"

Charlye: "Yea...BYYYYEEE!!" She pulled the cover up over her and rolled over to go to sleep. :) I remember just getting excited for her to say one or two words let alone sentences!

Good night!

Farryn: "Member Mama, don't forget to say your prayers before you go to sleep!"

Me: "Okay Farryn, and remember don't forget to say your prayers too...pray for the little girl who doesn't have any toys!" (We use "the little girl who doesn't have any toys" as an example for those who are less fortunate...she's four years old so she doesn't really understand other than that.)

Farryn: (Pausing for a minute to think about what I just said...) "Well, actually, I think I'm gonna pray just for myself tonight. Good night Mama!

Because I'm a woman! (Part 2)

Getting ready for bed I go into her room to tuck her in.

Farryn: "Ah-ha! Gotcha you tupid lil fly!"

Me: "Oh Farryn, thats not a fly! Thats a mosquito hawk, they are good! You know those little mosquitos that bite you and leave those itchy bumps? Well these little guys eat those nasty lil bugs so they can't hurt you. They are like the mosquito police! Don't squash them okay Farryn."

Farryn: "Oh no, I didn't know that Mama. I'm sorry...but this one wasn't a good one, he was a bad mosq haux. You see sometimes there are good ones and sometimes here are bad ones. Just like dinosaurs, people... police men. (I look at her a little baffled) You know this Mama! Sometimes there are bad police men who pull you over when you don't do nothing wrong and sometimes there are good police men who catch the mean guys! They put their arms like this (imaginary handcuffs go on) and then they put them in the police cars and they take em to jail so those mean people don't hurt us!"

(Still baffled)
Me: "How do you know all this?"

Farryn: "Because I'm a woman!"

I know everything!

Farryn has been bugging me constantly for another dog. We have a labradoodle named Cullen, he should be enough but Farryn is having a Noah's Ark complex...two of everything! "Mama Cullen needs a girlfwiend! See this dog here (pointing to her book) this here is a good dog girl for Cullen. We should get this dog when we wake up from our naps. How that be?" I've said it over and over, "Our house just isn't big enough for a zoo! A dog, a fish and a stinky guinea pig is just enough!" Her response, "Well make the house big, feed it veg-a-tables make it really tall and big and strong and we will have plenty of woom! I know this, I know everything Mom...because I'm a woman!"

"Life's a garden...Dig it!"

Farryn: "Mama I wanna watch Doe Dirt!"

Me: "Doe? Are you sure its Doe Dirt Farryn and not JOE Dirt?"

Farryn: "Yeah, that movie that says (in her best crazy, unstable man impersonation) IT PUTS THE LOTION ON ITS SKIN!"

Networking Skills!

As I'm responding to messages on the business facebook page and getting to know some of my new potential clients on there Farryn asks me "Mama what are you doing?" My response: "I'm networking. Do you know what that is?" She said "Yep, I sure do! I do that all the time at my Dada's house." A little confused I asked "Really?" Her response: "Yep, The Cartoon Network!" God bless her!

Did you or did you not ask for "Quiet Time" Mama?

In a room filled with at least $400 worth of toys they pick the $.59 container of baby powder to play with...I asked for "Quiet Time"...I got it! We couldn't even be mad, we just shut the door and went back to folding the laundry. :)

You better not cry...

You better not pout I'm telling you why... ;) Our Christmas picture experience with Santa over the past three years.

Almost two years old here, Farryn's first visit with Santa

Second year seeing Santa went much better. Farryn almost 3 years old, Charlye is 2 months old.

Charlye is aware of what's going on this year and is not happy about it. Farryn (almost 4), Charlye-14 months.

WWHHAAATTTT???

Farryn's little sister doesn't say much. If you ask her if she wants to go take a nap she'll shake her head no, if you ask her if she is hungry she'll shake her head yes. For the most part she'll say a word here and there like "ba-ba" (bottle)..."Ma-ma"..."Da-Da" and "Na-na"...she keeps it simple. But today we had a little more interesting conversation.

Farryn: "Hey Mama, I got a great idea! How bout Charlye moves in my woom with me and we get beds up in the air, how that be?"

Charlye stops playing with Cullen's tail, looks up and yells "WWHHHAAATTT???"

Farryn: "Charlye I said you can move into my woom, you wanna move into my woom lil girl?"

Charlye simply shakes her head no and goes back to tormenting the dog.

I love you THIS MUCH!!

Farryn: "Mama, I love you!"

Me: "I love you too honey! How much do you love me?"

Farryn: "I love you way far away all the way to Nina's house!!!" (Nina and Paw-Paw live in Lipan, 4 hour drive away)

Jesse: "Wow, thats far, How much do you love me?"

Farryn: "I love you way far away to the MOON!!!"

How good? Soaking good!

Getting her ready for bed and fixing to read her a goodnight story...



Farryn: "So Mom, how was your day?"



Me: "It was very good baby, and how was your day?"



Farryn: "It was SSSOOOAAAKKKKINNNGG good!"

For the love...

When driving around looking at Christmas lights with Grammy, Gramps and her great grandmother Nana...

Nana: "Oh Farryn LOOK!"
(one minute later)
Nana: "Oh Farryn, did you see that? Look at that!"
few more comments like this go by and finally Farryn says...
"I see it Nana, top telling me to LOOK, I see it! I'm LOOKING at it alweady!"

________________________________________________________________

Me: "Uh uh, NO MAAM! Don't even think about starting a bubble bath until you've picked up your toys from downstairs and put the Candy Land game up that you brought into my room."

Farryn: "Ugh, ALWIGHT!!!"

(10 minutes later)

Farryn: "Alwight Mama, I picked up my shit!"

Me: "DO NOT SAY THAT WORD!!! EVER!!! FARRYN, THATS A VERY BAD WORD!"

Farryn: "Well, you say it!"

Me: "That doesn't mean you say it, grown ups sometimes say those words when something goes wrong, they hurt themselves or they are angry...little girls are not suppose to repeat those words!"

Farryn: "Well, now thats just not wight!" (storms off all prissy)
