Pwivacy

Brian was helping Kaia in the restroom.

K: Daddy, pease cose the door! I actually need some pwivacy in here!

Smarty Pants

Zoey always requests a plain ham sandwich from Panera, but rarely eats the ham. I'm always reminding her she needs the protein, not just the bread. Tonight was the same story.

Mommy: Eat the ham, please.
Z: I'm cutting it up with my nails because they are so long and sharp.
Daddy: Why don't you try cutting it up with your teeth?
Z: Oh, dear. I know where this is going.

Alarms

I have several alarms set throughout the day to remind me when I need to drop off/pick up, etc. When one sounds, Kaia comes running and exclaiming, "It's the alarmer!" She's combining timer and alarm and it's funny to me.

Pronouns

Even though I have spent a lot of my life correcting pronoun usage, I actually LOVE pronoun confusion with my little girls. My favorite of Kaia's right now is her use of she for really any pronoun describing a girl or something belonging to a girl. "That's she's car!" "Is that she's Mommy?" "I am she's friend!" I just don't even want to correct her.

Misses

Zoey and Kaia call our sitter "Miss Teagan" and Kaia has started adding Miss to all names: Miss Zoey, Miss Sister, Miss Mommy, and - my favorite - Miss Daddy! It really makes me laugh every. single. time.

napping

Kaia dislikes bedtime and napping so much that her antonym for both is "happy."

When she's playing with her babies and I ask, "Kaia, is your baby sleeping?" she responds, "No, Kaia's baby is happy."

When it's time for a nap and I say, "Kaia, it's time for a nap," she says, "No, Kaia wants to be happy."

Then when you're my age happy becomes synonymous with nap. Oh, the irony.

Potty mouth!!!

Kaia says sock with an f instead of an s. It does not sound so great. Especially when she says, "I want my sock off!"

She also says shirt without the r.

Is it so bad that it makes us laugh every time? Poor baby.
