In my opinion, one of the very best things about being a parent is when your child gets old enough to say funny things that make you laugh. Not only has this girl come into our lives and stolen our hearts but she has also become the resident comedian... I know hard to believe with her dad in the house! Here are some of the funny things I can remember from the past few days and weeks:
- She was climbing up the couch this afternoon and I could hear her whispering to herself to "be careful Taylor!" She often tells Joel to "Be careful daddy!" when he's driving. Hmm.... I wonder where she gets that from- nag much Annie?
- A few weeks ago at daycare Stacey's daughter mentioned that Taylor's hair is getting long and Stacey said, "Yeah she kind of has a mullet!" Taylor heard their conversation, lifted up her shirt, pointed to her belly mole and declared, "My mullet!" I think she thought they were asking her where her mole was at.
- Last night we were in the car and I missed a turn and I said, "Oh crap!" and Taylor immediately piped up from the back, "Mommy said 'crap!'" Not that she knows it's a bad word or anything, she just repeats EVERYTHING. Whoops.
- This afternoon she grabbed a tube of BenGay off of the table in the office and brought it to me and said, "Here mommy. Daddy's toothpaste!"
-After the inauguration I said, "Taylor we have a new president! Can you say Obama?" and she looked at me and excitedly said, "Oh Momma!" and then looked at Joel and said, "Oh Daddy!"
- We were getting ready to leave for the store on Friday and Scratchy was tearing around the house and being really wild. I warned Taylor that he was being wild and to watch out because I didn't want him to scratch her. As we were leaving she shouted, "Bye bye Scratchy, you wild beast!"
- Saturday morning she woke up and was playing in her crib when I heard her yelling, "I poopy!" so I went into her room to change her and as I was changing her diaper she said, "Say 'yucky' mommy!"
- She constantly wants to get naked. I really hope she outgrows this one.... as soon as she gets undressed she runs around yelling, "I nakee! I nakee!" Hmm. Not sure what to do about this one yet.
Anyway, here are some pictures from this weekend.
Friday night she wanted to put her hat and mittens on before bed. She thought it was funny until I decided to take pictures. She didn't like that for some reason but I still took a couple photos. Mean mom.
Here she is in her glorious (mostly) naked state on Saturday morning playing the piano with her wild static hair. Silly girl!
And here she is after church today giving Scratchy some love. He is such a tolerant cat!

What a little parrot! I can't wait to hear the chatter in person. How cute the pictures are with Scratchy.
It is amazing the kids things say! My youngest, Noah(7) still makes us laugh with the all things he says along with his facial expressions. When they were younger, whenever Shane was deployed I would make sure to write down the funny things they said and we would put them in a "quote jar". Then when he got home we would read all the funny things quotes, it was great we would laugh for hours!
SO cute! I love the things kids come up with on their own. I am glad you are keeping a record of them, you will love looking back on them later.
Love her dress. And crazy view of your life. She will never stop liking the naked life.
annie,
didn't you spend pretty much your entire childhood (and maybe even some of your young adulthood) naked? go figure - must be genetic. i wouldn't expect taylor to grow out of it anytime soon!
Ya, didn't I see you naked at the playground on Seminary Hill, when you were a kid!
Ok, so I didn't, but I have not figured out how to Pug you yet!
Heide and Nancy- OK, just to clarify I grew out of the streaking naked thing when I was like 3. Other than dares from my friends and stuff that is. But as far as stripping and riding my tricycle naked down the street I stopped doing that when I was a little girl!!! And who knows, maybe it is genetic!
Good bye scratcy, you wild beast! Ha, ha. That is so dang funny.
Oh and the post with the new cut. Beautiful. As in YOU are beautiful.
