Crack me ups...

So, here are some "Oliviaisms" of late:

1. Olivia a.k.a "The Great Negotiator" Olivia was having one of those days with two scrapped up knees and then an accident at the potty. She was in definite need of a bath. I promised her a trip to the theatre to see "UP" and a new swim suit, if she would just hop in and wash off. After much complaining and running away, she said, "Mommy, (with both hands out) how bout this...we'll order the movie on the Flix (Netflix) and we'll order my suit off the internet." She's an excellent negotiator.

2. I've been attending Weight Watchers meetings, again. Olivia came with me to one meeting where the teacher really hit upon my biggest issue...control. My little sponge took this information to heart and told me a few days later, "You're in control of the food. The food is not in control of you, Mommy." Thank you, Olivia. I need you to tell me that 20 times a day. She's definitely gearing up to be a great WW teacher. :-)

3. As we were getting into the car a few weeks ago, she told me, "I want to be 6." I said, "Why do you want to be 6? " She replied so casually, "So I can have a boyfriend!" What!!!! Not already.

4. At her library classes, they have been doing the limbo or as Olivia calls it the "pongo". I have no idea why but she sure loves to do the "pongo".

5. Olivia was breastfeeding her doll the other day. I asked her how everything was going. She said her nipples were hurting so bad and she was going to re-latch. I obviously talk about breastfeeding a little too much. ;-)

I loved hearing her say the WW comment at the beach! So is a riot!

LOL! I love it!!! Anna has started taking her doll to church with us. For some reason she only seems to need to breastfeed her while in church standing up at the end of our pew with the doll up under her dress. :)
