Conversations with a 2 Year Old

1.)  Emily, Hannah and I were sitting at the kitchen table after we had just finished dinner...

Emily - Does Hannah have any teeth? 

Me - No, not yet.  

Emily - I can put some teeth in Hannah's mouth.

Me - Oh, yeah?  Where are you going to get the teeth?  

Emily - I don't know yet.  

Me - Oh, Okay. Well how are you going to put them in?  

Emily - With my screwdriver that's in the bathtub.  It's red and green, you know?

Couple things....

A.)  She doesn't have a screwdriver in the bathtub, although I think I know which bath toy she's talking about.  

B.)  Hannah, I promise we won't let her get a screwdriver or a bath toy near your mouth.:)

2.) Emily, Hannah and I went to Toccoa one afternoon last week so that I could go to a dentist appointment.  We were about 10 minutes from my parents' house when this conversation took place:  

Emily - Mommy, my poopy is coming.  

Me - Well, tell it to wait until we get to Mimi and Papa Stan's house.  We're almost there.  

Emily - (In a very stern voice, while looking down at her bottom, and pointing her finger) Poopy, you wait!  Stay back!  We're almost to Mimi and Papa's.  

Me -  Holding in laughter and not saying anything...

Emily - (about 1 minute later) Mommy, my poopy didn't listen.  It did come!
