hosdipal

We pass the Doylestown Hospital almost every single day, most days multiple times a day. I can't remember exactly when she started this, but every. single. time. we pass it Kaia exclaims (and by exclaims I mean EXCLAIMS): MOMMY! LOOK, IT'S MY NEW HOSDIPAL! THAT'S WHERE I GOT BORNED! Her excitement every time makes me happy, and the novelty has yet to wear off.

Christmasisms

Kaia,upon opening clothes for her Bitty Baby (in a whining near-tears voice): But it doesn't fit me!

Zoey, upon opening a third accessory/outfit item for her American Girl doll: Well, it looks like I finally have a party here.

Kaia, upon seeing every single gift with a bow: It's so pretty... here, I'll help you open it.

Zoey, at the end of opening presents: I find it very interesting that no one got bean bags except for Kaia.

Nurse: Okay, sweet pea. Can I listen to your lungs?
Kaia: No, you can't. I don't have lungs!

Nurse: This medicine tastes like berries. It's yummy.
Kaia: No, it is yucky!

Nurse: Oh, sweetie, you look so tired!
Kaia: I not your sweetie!

Nurse: She's so cute!
Kaia: I not cute! I sick!

Pleasant, as always.

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.
