Slumber Party

C:  "Mommy, I can't wait till Abby comes over for our Slumber Party"
A:  "What do you do at a Slumber Party?"  (slumber party?  Abby is coming for a playdate)
C"  "You wave flashlights!  But I don't have a flashlight mommy"

Feelings

Claire and I were discussing her feelings today.  What makes her sad or angry and what makes her happy.  Her answers:

Soup makes her angry, but not soup with cheese and rice, that's yummy

 

I can make her happy by giving her snacks all the time

She's on Fire

In one day:

"I'm a big girl.  I can go pee pee and poo poo by myself.  I'm a Can-Do Kid"

"Mommy, your breath is stinky"

"Mommy, go check your e-mail."

Lunch

Me: "Claire, you didn't eat much of your lunch today.  Why not?"

Claire:  "It wasn't very tasty, momma.  You shouldn't put vegetables in my sandwich."

Genes

Claire: "These are my polish shoes"

in reference to her sneakers from Target

Labor Pains

Mommy: "Claire, thank you so much.  That rubbing was really helpful."
Claire:  "You're welcome.  Next time you fall asleep, I'll rub you again."

(Um, yeah, not sleeping.  Having contractions)

Not yet a Terps Fan

Claire: "Daddy, do you want to play babies?"
Jason: "Sure, do you think the babies want to play in the living room while we watch football?"
Claire: "No, they want to play in the playroom."
Jason: "Don't the babies like to watch football? 
Claire: "No, Daddy, the babies like to watch shows"

(and by shows, she means Dora, Team Umizoomi, and Super Why)

I thought I would resurrect this blog just to record the things Claire says.  They're too funny not to capture, remember and share.

Teacher at Kidville: "Another rule in class is that there's NO hitting"
Claire: "It's ok for kangaroos to hit"
(Where did she get that?)

Claire: "When I get big, can I go to college too?"
Mommy: "Of course you can"
Claire: "Will you come with me Mommy?"
(Oh Claire, I seriously doubt you'll want me to when the time comes)

Jason: "What's this game? Take all your stickers and rip them in half?"
Claire: "No, I'm just taking their legs off?"
(Does she need therapy already)

Claire: "What's this Dada?"
Jason: "That's Daddy's belt"
Claire: "When I get big, and I'm a boy, and I go to work, then i'll wear MY belt.  It's pink and purple"

Claire: "Mommy, when I look for dinosaur eggs, I don't want the stinky ones"
Mommy: "When did you look for dinosaur eggs?"
Claire: "When I was a paleontologist.  I looked for the hatched ones. Pink and green and purple, but not the stinky ones."
