Lil' Tidbits

Just a sneak peak into the little details that make up my daily life with Lily Lin. The things that come out of her mouth keep me entertained from sun up to sun down.

- She was playing with her beautiful Asian doll that my sister bought her and said "I name dolly Emiwee. Emiwee's a nice name, just wike my friend from China" (AWWWW)

- When she wakes up in the morning after greeting me she will say "wook momma, my pull up is bwy (aka dry)...she says this whether it is dry or not, by the way. This is usually followed by "Are you weady to have a BIG day, momma?" "What are we donna do? What are we donna see?"

- The other night when she was SUPPOSED to be in bed sleeping she crept out into the office where I was and whispered "shhhhh...I don't wanna hear any noise. I need to det a dood night sweep." (hmmm...wonder where she heard THAT?)

- When she passed gas in the bathtub last night she said "Oh! I have fiah-wooks coming outta my bootie!"

- At Target today there was a little boy having a big ol' temper tantrum and his mom was threatening him with all sorts of nasty punishments, but this just made his rants louder...Lily looked at me and said "dat boy not bein' a good wistener to his mommy. He gonna have to sit in his van all day."

- We are going to a BBQ on Friday night and I was on the phone with my friend discussing what she was going to be serving. She told me she was making Beer butt chicken. I have NEVER heard of such a thing, so I replied "Beer butt chicken!?" Lily was sitting next to me at the time, so she screamed "Bare butt chicken!? MMMMM...yummy in my tummy!" Then today when I told her we were going out to a restaurant for lunch and asked what she was in the mood for, what do you think she said? Yep. "Bare butt chicken" of course!

So, we go out for lunch ( Mexican, not beer butt chicken) and about 15 minutes into our meal she tells me she has to go potty. She is reluctant to leave her lunch. She is looking it up and down and I can see she is torn. But she declares "my food will wait for me" and I reply "of course it will, sweetie". So, we run, not walk, to the ladies' room to take care of business. We return, approximately 4 minutes later to see that our table has been cleared, bussed, and RE-SAT! Um. I couldn't believe it. They ended up making Lily another meal and we took it to-go. But, she told her daddy later on what had happened...how she "missed her chicken" at lunch. I still can't believe her food didn't wait for her! I'm hoping this won't stop her from taking a potty break next time we go out!

OK, that's all the Lil' tidbits I have for today. I'm off to bed...it's waaaay past my bedtime.
