Peanut...

This morning while using the toilet Hannah is talking about how big she is b/c she is toilet trained and various things while doing her business. Then came...

HANNAH: Daddy has a nut.
VALERIE: He has what?
HANNAH: a peanut (though it really sounded like something else which is what I think she meant)
VALERIE: (flabergasted) He does? who told you that?
HANNAH: Katie (our cat)
VALERIE: Katie?
HANNAH: Yeah, Kaie Mae
VALERIE: Are you sure? Did one of your friends from school say that?
HANNAH: Noooo.
VALERIE: Well, what do girls have?
HANNAH: a butt!

So there it is, at 35 months...

What would you have done if you had heard this?

Catching up

I am in the bathroom getting ready one morning. Hannah comes to the door.

VALERIE: Hannah do you need to pee?
HANNAH: No mom, I need to go poo-poo so can you get out of my way?




Tim is driving super fast down the parking garage at the airport making me very dizziness.

VALERIE: Gosh don't be so rough!
HANNAH: Daddy, don't get rough on mommy.


The morning after the wedding reception, Hannah complains of knee pain. She limps around the hotel room.
HANNAH: I can't walk very good today. My knee doesn't work.
VALERIE: Well, Hannah it was all that dancing you did last night.
HANNAH: Mom, tell me the story [about me dancing].

I am cutting Tim's hair in the bathroom. Hannah comes in.
HANNAH: Hi guys! Do you need me?

Dinner time...
HANNAH: Okay guys (capping her hands together) Let's eat! Do you want some rice? Okay I will get it for you.

Odds and ends this week

Mommy trying to get Hannah to put on her pants.
HANNAH: but mommy, my legs won't move. They just don't work.

Dress that I ordered arrived in the mail.
HANNAH: You're dress is just boootiful!!!!! You'll look so bootiful in your dress!!!!! (with just as much excitement as I have put !!!!!!)

Mommy telling Hannah we have to wake up early tomorrow b/c Mommy has to go to medical school and Hannah has to go to preschool.
HANNAH: But when I get big I will go to medical school too.
MOMMY: Yes, you can go to medical school. But no lab okay (i.e no PhD)? You don't want to work in the lab, do you? (She LOVES the lab, has visited with me. Thinks it neat)
HANNAH: Momy, I want to work in the lab WITH you! (Awww..the greatest collaboration ever!!!)

Noodle

Hannah loves Mommy's homemade chicken noodle soup. We have it all the time when the weather is cold outside! But don't dare call us a noodle!

HANNAH/MOMMY: we love noodles. Oodles and oodles of noodle!

DADDY: Hannah you are a noodle.

HANNAH: I'm not a noodle. You're a noodle daddy.

Starbucks

Hannah got her first taste of Starbucks (well, maybe like 3!!!) over the Christmas break. I got her a child's hot chocolate...after the first sip she was hooked!!! She may not be able to have coffee until she is big but she definitely know's what a Starbucks hot chocolate is!!!
