...A journey into the wonderfully illogical life of parenting a toddler and a preemie...

"What's that?" or rather "What dat?"

Hope is talking more and more these days, and sometimes the things she says absolutely crack me up!  Here's a short collection of her latest comments and questions:

Today at the mall:
Hope: "What dat?" pointing at the dragon above a fastfood Chinese restaurant
Mommy:  "That's a dragon"
Hope: pause "What dat?" still pointing at the dragon
Mommy: "That's a dragon"
Hope: laugh "What dat?" still the dragon
Mommy: laugh "That's a dog"
Hope: 'That NOT a dog.... What dat?"
Mommy: "That's a car"
Hope: "That NOT a car-k" pause "What dat?" moving on now to the sushi sign... and repeat

With her baby doll and her doll's bottle:
Hope: "Dis baby's bubba"
Mommy: "Oh?  Your baby is thirsty?"
Hope: "Ya"
Mommy: "Is she having some milk?"
Hope: "No. No mom.  No milk.  Babies juice.  JUICE!"
Mommy: "Sorry!  I didn't know!"
Hope: "Juice."
(I apparently was supposed to know it was juice... and she was offended I didn't!)

When Grace was crying
Hope: "Baby Sad. No ball."
Enough said.
