Melanie-isms




The things kids say! Melanie has been on a roll this week....I guess I will start with explaining the picture above. She got dressed herself, and then went into my sock drawer and pulled out my winter socks, and put them on. She ran in and told me, "Mommy, I am in my soccer outfit!" and I think, "Aww, how cute. Don't know how she knows what soccer players wear, but cute." She then proceeds to go over to Magoo, rub her "Little Bald Head" and say, "...and this is my soccer ball!" Poor Magoo!

Her father also has her convinced that "Ogama" (Obama) is best friends with Icky Bear. I left her down with Eric the other day when I was doing something, and she told me that she doesn't like Ogama because he is best friends with Icky Bear*, and she "hates democraps." Not democrats, demoCRAPS. So when we were in Borders the other day, she sees the big display of Obama books and starts shouting out how she hates democraps and that Ogama and Icky Bear* are best friends and that they go on vacation together. And then she proceeded to start turning all the books with his picture on in the other way! I didn't even know what to do.

We also went to Chick-fil-A (or Tick-a-lay as Melanie calls it). And out comes the big dressed up cow. She decided she wanted to go see him, so her aunt Lulu took her to see him outside. The next thing I see is the cow grabbing and shaking his head no, and Melanie laughing. She told the cow that he "looks tasty!" Now, I will say that she had some help from Lulu on that one, but she still said it to the cow at Tick-a-lay!

I'm trying to remember if that is all from this week...I am sure there is more that I am missing, but I will add it later if I remember. Also, I can't miss talking about Magoo in a post...she got her first pedicure this week. I painted her nails Cha-Ching Cherry, which was what I had on my toes when I had her. I did the same to Melanie when I first painted her toes...she got Cajun Shrimp polish, which was what I had on when she was born! Here is a picture of Meredith's toes!
