A Dozen Things Ava Has Said Recently

1. Upon seeing me in my hot pink pajama set. Ava: “Mommy you have a pretty dress on.”
Me: “It’s not a dress…it’s pants and a top.”
Ava: “You have beautiful pants.”

2. On way to the Tilsons for sleepover. “I want a dinosaur hug. And dinosaur kisses.”

3. When I was sick and upset “It’s okay Mommy. Ava’s here. It’s ok.”

4. While hugging Granny & Pops starts singing "Im so glad, you're my family" a song on Nick Jr. by the Laurie Berkner Band.

5. After seeing an ad in paper for a princess baby changing station "Oh my goodness!"

6. When singing "A dream is a wish your heart makes" from Cinderella she makes the word "heart" sound like "horny." So hilarious yet so inappropriate.

7. While avoiding naptime, “Hey open my gate. Right now. Not nice. Come have tea party. You can put my hair in pigtails. Mom let me out. We watch chickie movie with me? He's very nice. Cookies be cool. We make cookies. You see my toes? You know what this is? Granny & Pops birthday party. We have a party. Happy birthday to you." This is typical stream-of-consciousness from Ava. Oh and yes she has a gate on her room...makes it like a giant crib otherwise she gets up at 3am and won't go back to bed.

8. Me sitting on the floor in room b/c I am sick. Ava: “Mommy why you in timeout?”
Me: “I’m not in timeout, I feel sick.”
Ava plops down beside me “Ava sick too.”

9. Ava tells me about Granny & Pops after their visit. Ava: "Pops took off his glasses and put on his man-jamas. Granny had on lady-jamas." Oh the things an almost 3 yr old says. Man-jamas still cracks me up...and I do now refer to my pajamas as "lady-jamas."

10. After hearing me flush the toilet in her bathroom…"You did it! Do you want a big Dora sticker?”
