HAPPY FATHER'S DAY, DADDY!!!

Happy Father's Day to the best Daddy my daughter could ask for and my partner in crime! 

This morning, Zoe went upstairs to wake up her Daddy, so we could start our very busy day...

"Happy Father's Day, DADDY!!!!!!!!!!  Can I tickle your boobies?"

Ah, yes...life with a 3 year old.  It's certainly comical!

What's inside?

There are short little shows between the shows on Nick Jr, and one is a kids' singer, Rachel Coleman who sings a song "Feelings".  One of the lines to her song is to tell her what's inside.

Zoe says, "FOOD!" every time. :)

You spin me right round....

We're getting ready to take Zoe's first trip to Disney World (and Z doesn't know, SHHHH!).  We've been giving her little hints and asking her questions about things for awhile now.  Today, driving home, I asked her if she'd go on the tea cups if we went to a carnival.  Yes, I'm fully aware that there are no tea cups at a carnival, but that's besides the point.  And, I'm fully aware that soon, Zoe is going to catch onto this line of questioning.  But, I'll use it until I can't anymore! :)

Anyway, so, I ask her that.  She said she'd go on that (but not a roller coaster because THOSE go up to the moon, apparently).  I said, well, they spin in circles, like the Chipmunks do here.  She immediately starts singing, "You spin me round round BABY round round like a RAH-KAH  baby."  She repeated that a number of times...getting sillier and sillier.  Oh, how I wish I had a video camera with me at that moment and wasn't driving.  :)

Ask her to sing that song to you.  It's quite humorous!

Is there a pause button??

The other day, I had to make a cake for my 8th graders who were moving onto the high school.  It's a special thing I've done the last couple of years, since I've had these guys for 3 years...

Anyway, I had Zoe help me out.  As we're doing this, the Electric Company is on tv in the background...she loves this show.  But she was VERY focused on stirring.  She told me that the show was on but she couldn't turn to look because she was busy.


Then....
'mommy, we'remakingacakeforyourstudentsatschool.Igettostiritall.Iwanttogotoyourschooltoseeyourkids,butIcan'trightnowbecausetherearenokidsandnoteacherstheresotheschoolisclosedrightnow.we'remakingthecakeinstead." 

Oh. My. Goodness. I'm not sure she took a breath.

THAT is how it's like with Zoe when she's excited for something.  Today, walking into Target, there was something similar.  I couldn't pick up nearly as many words, but somehow she was talking about dinosaurs, Father's Day gifts, and her friend Mason's birthday gift.  Woah..
