Lollipop!

Ainsley came home from Menike's with 2 barrettes in her hair. I have been struggling for, oh, 2 years to get her to wear a bow. What's the secret here?
I told her that if she would wear barrettes she wouldn't have to get her hair cut tomorrow.

I want my hair cut!

Hmmm...You know, Ainsley, you can have a lollipop without getting a haircut.
In all innocence:

You can?

2 barrettes!

Today at daycare...

Everett was not happy that I arrived before his mom or dad. He was getting upset. Ainsley took his hand and t old him "It's okay Everett. Your daddy will be here soon."

Phrase of the Day

No, Daddy, you're not a princess. I'm the princess!

It Keeps Getting Better!

I was snoozing this morning while Ainsley and Harry watched Prep & Landing for the 90,000 time (Ainsley's choice) and Kevin was out riding his bike. Ainsley likes company. AInsley also likes Mommy to Tivo commercials. "Wake up Mommy!...No napping!...Cockadoodle-doooooo!!!!!"
She cockadoodledooed me! Seriously! I love the brilliant logic of my 2 year old. And it worked like a charm. How can a person sleep after that? I was too busy laughing!
