Backlogging...cause it's been awhile.

We were trying to get her to say Osh Kosh b'gosh...it didn't work very well.

Kadence put her pull-up all the way on without help for the 1st time (they say it's like real underwear, but it's really much more difficult) and then she put her shorts on without me knowing. She was so excited she started doing her own rendition of Dora the Explorer's "I did it! Hoooray!" dance. In case you're wondering, Daddy's the one who taught her "shake your booty"...like that's surprising...:)

 

Little drama queen was holding my hand while she was on the potty...she turned it over and saw my wedding rings. She gasped, then whispered "The diamond! So pretty!"

 

K was standing by the fridge saying "I want a beer. I want a beer. Mommy, I want a beer." We don't drink beer, so I was rather shocked. I went over to see her looking up on TOP of the fridge at the teddy grahams. She meant BEARS. 

While she was out of bed to go potty, Kadence patted her messy little bedhead and told me "Mommy, I georgeous!"...not conceited at all now are we...

 

K: "Mommy, what's your name?" Me: "Rachael." K: "No! It's Mommy!"

 

Patrick started backing up the car before he buckled up...Kadence yelled "Daddy no! Seat belt!" I do believe that's the best thing she's learned from watching Dora. :)

 

After I got home from work one day, I told K "I missed you today babycakes." She replied "I miss you mommycakes." She randomly calls me "mommycakes" now.

 

My phone alarm went off, so K brought me the phone and told me "Here Mommy. Someone wants to talk to you." The other day Patrick was calling, and K started out bringing me my phone, but stopped halfway, wound up to pitch it to me and said "Here it comes Mommy!" I managed to grab it before she pitched it.

 

K just randomly started counting in Spanish one morning...which caught me a little off guard. She was jumping, and every time she jumped she counted...but it went like this "Uno! Dos! Dress! Stinko! Seis!" We're working on trying to fit "quatro" between "dress" and "stinko."

 

K informed me one morning that she couldn't take her milk from me, because she had to pay for it first. I told her to give me a kiss and that would pay for it. As she was putting on MY shoes, she said "No, I gotta go to work." At least she knows where money comes from...haha

 

K asked me for "pussytails" one morning...I guess that makes as much sense as calling them ponytails or pigtails. Normally she just calls them "tails."

 

I told K to get ready for her nap while I filled up her water (meaning get her baby and chipmunks.) She came back and told me she was ready. She had put her coloring book, and a handful of crayons in her bed so she could "Go night-night and color papers."

 

K: Mommy, what's your name? 

Me: Mommy. 

K: Right! What's the Kadence's name? 

Me: Kadence. 

K: Yes, right! What's the Birdy's name? (her Brittany Chipmunk) 

Me: Brittany. 

K: No, Birdy. What's the name the tree? 

Me: Um...tree? 

K: Right! What the name the other tree....etc. etc. etc. 

I ♥ being her Mommy. :)

 

K let go of her balloon and she couldn't reach it...so she asked me to get it. I had already told her I wasn't getting it anymore, so I didn't answer her. She came over, patted me on the head, and said "It's ok. Go ahead. Get it!"

 

K pointed to something I was holding and asked "Mommy, is that yours?" I said that it was, and she said "I'm yours too!"

 

We went shopping at "Mal-Nart" and I walked away from Patrick and Kadence to get something. Kadence yelled "Mommy Rachael! Hurry, come back!" several times, then she just started yelling "Rachael, rapido!" until I came back.

 

K was acting up, and P asked her if she wanted a spank. She yelled back "No, not yet! Later!"

 

Kadence shut herself in her room, and Caiden was pounding on the door yelling "Kadence, this is not an idea!" (We think he meant GOOD idea.) She yelled back "Sorry!" to which he replied "No you're not! Open the door, or your mother is gonna get a spanking!" (I hope he meant GIVE YOU a spanking.)

 

There are 3 family members who have birthdays on May 30th...so Kadence made a video for all of them. 

 

After she had an potty accident, I asked Kadence "Where are you SUPPOSED to go potty??" She replied "Um, NOT in the Dora canties." I laugh everytime she calls them "canties."

 

K: Turn that off! 

Me: No. 

K: Please? 

Me: No. 

K: PLEASE! 

Me: No. You don't always get what you want just because you say please. 

K: Why not? 

Me: Because I'm the mommy, and I get to decide. 

K: Oh!

 

She had a very bad day...first she bit her lip and it bled for about 5 minutes...the she somehow manged to go off a single step face first into the sidewalk. :(

 

We went to go eat lunch with Daddy. He walked over to me holding her, and she said "Hi Mommy! This is Daddy!" while patting his chest. They had their picture taken with the Chick-Fil-A cow, and after the picture while the cow was walking away, Kadence said "Bye bye cow! Moo moo!" The next morning K woke up and told me "Mommy, I want to say cheese and the cow." I told her we don't have a cow, and she said "The cow's at work Mommy." My brain eventually woke up to realize that she wanted to go take another picture with the Chick-Fil-A cow.

K told me quite seriously while we were on our way home "Mommy, I need a wife. I want a wife Mommy." I asked if she needed a WIPE, and she said "No, I want a WIFE." I asked her what she was going to do with a wife...her ...answer "Hide it." I have NO clue what she was actually talking about.

 

On the way to the zoo, Kadence asked me "Mommy, how I get down the giraffe?" I asked her why she would need to get down from the giraffe, and she said "I climb up!" I had to explain that we don't climb the animals, or ride them...we just look at them. We've been trying to teach her all the different kinds of animals...some she can say, others...well...

She got her 1st shaving cut the other day while we were in the shower...due to the fact that I didn't realize she's now tall enough to reach the ledge in the shower where my razor was. There was no crying, just a surprised "Mommy, I have a booboo." Turn your back for 1 second...she was happy that she got a "booboo nanaid" though.

Poppy came to visit...and was forced to do the iCarly dance. She makes everyone do it. :)

She and Caiden really enjoyed seeing Poppy (as did the rest of us), although he wasn't here NEARLY long enough....hint, hint.

 

Patrick came home from class the other day looking completely worn out. K was holding his face while she looked at him, and with a concerned tone asked "Daddy, what happend your head?? Daddy, what happend your face??" He said "Nothing happened baby. Daddy's just naturally ugly."

K and I spent about an hour sitting on the couch under an umbrella the other night, because she said it was raining. It had been raining for several days, and I had told her we only used the umbrella when it was raining...and since she wanted to play with it, she decided it was raining...inside. 

 

I need thunder every time I tell her to do something and she hesitates. It was like the voice of God commanding her to obey. lol

 

She asked for a "booboo nanaid" the other day, so I got one for her. I was opening it and she said "No, I do it!" After turning it over in her hands for a few seconds, she looked up at me confused and said "But how?" 

 

After I got her up the other morning and gave her her medicine for the day, she said "Now, what to do first!"

After she had refused to take a nap, I gave up and went into her room to get her...she jumped up and started pulling her pull-up back up. I asked her what she was doing, and she told me "I go potty on the bed." She had been squatting in the corner of her bed with her pull-up down, and I walked in just before she started peeing.


K busted my lip playing rough. She came over and asked me "What happened? Where's it hurt?" I told her my lip and she said "Let's see." and proceeded to inspect it. Then she said "Come on Mommy, I make it all better." She took me by the hand, led me into the bathroom, climbed up and got the Dora band-aids. She needed help opening one, and then she put it on my lip. "There you go Mommy. I make it all better."


I'll try not to let over 2 months go by before I update again...and then it won't take quite so long for you to get to The End. :)
