Going for a Walk

H: I want to go outside and wash the babys and do the sandbox and the stroller and the walk.
Me: We can only pick one of those things.
H: I want to do the outside and the wash the babies and the walk.
Me: How about we go on a walk and you can take your baby?
H: "Lay-a" (How she says "Yeah")

At the end of our walk...
H: This is my house. We sit on the "gas" and watch the peoples do the walk and then we do the more walk. Ok, mommy?

My Name is.....

My Mom: She is very strong-willed!
H: I'm not strong-willed....I Harper!

Chocolate Icing

We like to cook things in our house. H was helping me make cake tonight and wanted to read the icing recipe to me (along with most of the cookbook).

Here is her recipe for icing:

H: We need the chocolate. First the chocolate. And then the chocolate milk.

Me: What about sugar?

H: Yeah...the sugar. And then more chocolate. And we stir. I see the butter.

Me: We're mixing it together.

H: I want to eat it.

Bathroom Art

Two recent episodes of bathroom art - both of the clean and dirty varieties....

In the bathtub:

H: I want to do the color, mommy. I need a picture.

Me: What kind of picture?

H: Of a spider. And Boots.

Me: Ok...here's a spider and a pair of boots.

H: NOT THOSE BOOTS. Make the Dora and her "pend" Boots. And Boots has the "liddle" boots. They red.

Me: Ok, Dora, Boots, and his boots. What else?

H: The spiders. And the mommy and the daddy. And the "liddle" spiders. They a family.

H: I all done Mommy. I get off the big potty. (notices poop). WHAT THAT?

Me: That's poop. You pooped in the potty.

H: (puts both hands on rim of toilet and looks closer at the poop). I MADE IT! That's a poop.

Me: Yep. Now wipe.

H: And I "plush" the poop. Bye, poop.
