Yet Another Naomiism

Sometimes I wonder if she saves the best of these for her Uncle Richard, since she always seems to spout the most absurd remarks only when I'm around, the others being somewhat typical. Today before Mommy left for school at MTI, she was being cranky and crying about how she didnt' want mommy to go and how she didn't want to go to preschool. I picked her up to get her away from her mother and allow her to leave, during which time she continued crying, until she saw what I had in my hand. Without so much as missing a beat, she stops crying and as if nothing happened says "Oh, you have a doughnut." What followed was a series of questions about how I got the doughnut. Mommy was apparently forgotten in the curiosity maelstrom.

Daddy's an ATM machine

The other day, Daddy and I went to pick up Naomi from school, then went to the taco bell that was down the street from her school to get me lunch and her a snack. She' was talking on and on about something. She was talking about what she wanted and so I asked her who was going to pay for it? 

Without missing  a beat, she answers "Daddy's going to"

She's 3 and already thinking Daddy's an ATM Machine

New Naomi-ism

Today Mommy made the comment of why do you smell pretty before realizing it was the scented soap that Naomi used to wash her hands. Naomi promptly responded with "I don't smell pretty, I smell different"

Naomiism #9

The little hellion strikes again. The celebration of her third birthday was today, and it was an exhausting affair for all involved, including the newly anointed three-year-old. Bearing the brunt of her cranky attitude, the four adults in the room tried to get her to understand that she didn't need a snack because we were going to eat soon, and in true Naomi fashion, she replies with the following:

"I don't want to eat. I just want my snack."

Logic is not a concept this child yet understands.

"Mommy's where's your pony hair?" Asked after pulling mom's ponytail out

Nail-file or comb, You decide!

So I was getting ready for a job interview yesterday and Naomi's mother was helping me put my makeup on. Uncle Richard was downstairs trying to keep Miss Naomi entertained but eventually she slipped out of his sight and came up the stairs. Naomi came into the master bathroom since her mother and I were there and stood on her little stool as her mother helped me with my makeup. The next thing I know, I hear her call out. "I want to brush my hair" and tries to grab for a comb. Mommy got her the comb and she acted like she brushed her hair. She then grabbed Mommy's nail-file and tried combing her hair with it. Her mother and I couldn't help but laugh at her antics

Adventures with Onions

Well today, my chiropractor had a patient appreciation BBQ. I signed up so that Mommy, Daddy, myself and Naomi went. Well Mommy went to go get her hamburger and Naomi went with her. We were sitting at the table furthest away from the food line and watched as Naomi brought something from the food table to Daddy.

Turns out it was a sliced onion ring. "Here Daddy, mommy says you like these" she'd say and hand him the sliced ring before darting off and going back to Mommy. Not even 10 minutes later, she brought back another ring, this time it was a bigger ring.

this time he handed it back to her and she put it in her mouth as it was some kind of tongue and ran back to find mommy.

When Mommy came back, she told us that Naomi had grabbed a ring before the two that she brought two Daddy, and had put it into her mouth and ate it whole. This child takes after her daddy.

Naomi-ism # 6
After waking up this Sunday, Naomi's diaper was pretty full and it was irritating her. So I changed the diaper and was a bit concerned because she wasn't her normal self that morning. I asked her if she felt sick this morning, she said yes she did. So, I asked her where did she feel sick, she responded with...my butt is sick.

Adventures at the Local Farmer's Market

So, Mommy, Naomi and I went to the local indoors farmer's market just a bit a go and while I was pushing her in the cart, she spotted an inflatable cow hanging from the ceiling. She started to yell at it and tried telling the cow "get down here and moo at me" She kept saying it's a cow and mooed at it. We were trying so hard not to laugh

Adventure in Washing Hands

So I took Naomi in to wash her hands today and she used A LOT more soap than she should have. Resulting in

The remaining soap suds in the sink.  Oh well, least she washed her hands... sort of...

Naomi puts the soap on and then puts her hand under the water before scrubbing her hands.

Adventure in Bedtime 1

Tonight, I went to lie down with Naomi so Mommy could finish eating. She'd lay down on the bed for like five seconds before jumping up, throwing the covers back and say "I gotta dance". She'd hop out of bed and dance with her doll for three seconds then climb back into bed. she repeated this three different times before she decided to dance with a fork while her doll took a nap.

Adventure...

I was sitting at the table doing my homework and checking Mommy's cell phone for a text from Uncle Richard. I had to put Naomi down from my lap to do something and she started screaming and crying because instead of wanting to eat (ten minutes ago she was crying cause she wanted a sandwich) she wanted to do her homework... I think this is the ONLY time in this child's life she's going to be crying over wanting to do her homework.

This morning, I was waking up when Naomi comes over "Auntie Steffie, I've never seen you before"

Me: You've never seen me before?

Naomi: Yep, here's my Rapunzel

Naomi-ism # 4
After playing outside in the hot sun, we went inside the house to cool off. I asked my husband to see if Naomi's cheeks were still pink. Before my husband could answer, Naomi states "I'm not Pink I'm Purple!"

Adventures with the Box Fan

So Naomi found the box fan that I've been using instead of turning the AC on at night. She stood in front of it after turning it on and bringing the air to her body like she was washing her body with the air. She turned so that her back was facing it and did the same thing.

Adventures With the "Raaaahr" Monster

A gimmick around this place around bedtime for Naomi is something her parents refer to as the "Raaaahr" Monster, which consists of Daddy acting like a zombie and mock roaring at the little hellion until she runs upstairs to "hide" in her room where she deems herself safe. Well, Naomi decided that this time the perfect place to hide from the raahr monster would be...the downstairs bathroom. The one that's barely the size of a broom closet.

That girl has some odd notions of "safe."

Naomiism #3

As I was booting up my laptop to keep the girl occupied until Grandma arrived to take her for the night, my windows 7 logo popped up and she pointed at it saying "I like blue." Then before I could respond, she looked at me and said  "You like red." I looked incredulous at the idea of a two year old telling me what my favorite color was, but it's not the first time she's made declarations of that nature.

Adventures with Dancing

So I just watched as Mommy and Daddy taught Naomi how to dance the waltz. She was trying to get both Mommy and Daddy to dance, which she then thought it was ring-a-round-the-rosies. It was a cute sight to see.   Especially when she stepped on her daddy's feet to try to dance. she didn't quite get the jist of the whole dancing on her daddy's feet yet. I really wished I got a picture of the three of them and later on, the three of them and the stuffed dog.

Adventures with Soap

Today, Mommy, Naomi and I roasted some marshmallows over the fire. Naomi got the marshmallows all over her face and hands. So Mommy took Naomi into the bathroom to wash her hands and mouth. Naomi grabbed the bar of soap to wash her face. Mommy and I watched on as she licked her mouth and got the ucky ucky look on her face. She then glanced at the two of us in the mirror before breaking out in giggles.
