Mary, Mary, Quite Contrary

(I’m linking up because this is an example of how We Are THAT Family … you know the ones!)
Maybe it’s because she’s two.
Maybe it’s because she’s a ham.
Maybe it’s because we should have named her Mary instead of Megan!
Here’s a recent conversation I had with her.
Meg: Mama, I’m still hungry.
Mama: Let’s go potty and have [...]

A portrait in chalk

Meg drew this out front:

She said it was me.
Can’t you tell? She said she drew Mama, the bump at the top is my head – see the two eyes she drew? – the line at the bottom is my “bottom” and the scribbles in the middle are my clothes!
Gotta love how kids see the world. [...]

Well, actually, the phrase “toddler logic” is probably an oxymoron. But here’s what Megan told me after she sat on the toilet and kind of slipped backward …
I was not fallin’ into da potty, I was just slippin’ into da potty and den I was fallin’ into da potty and den I climbed out of da [...]

A song. Or two.

Meg was singing the ABCs and Kate started joining in so I got out my camera and asked them to sit together and sing again. Here’s what I got. Notice the difference between the first and second renditions – guess which is more normal at our house!

Good thing.

Meg finished going on the “big potty” earlier today and looked down and said,
“There’s no poop on my shoes.”
“There’s no poop on my pants.”
“There’s no poop on my legs.”
Good thing, Meg. That’s the idea.

A birthday song and dance

Meg sang Happy Birthday to Daddy several times in a row. After each song she asked him to blow out pretend candles – so watch for that. Finally she added this dance to the show. I think he liked it.

My Mega-girl

Megan and I went for a walk the other day. Daniel rode in the Stork.
We call this ramp and railing “the bridge” and the girls both love to walk over it:
 Notice that she put on her own shoes. People often laugh – at me or her, I’m not sure which – when her shoes aren’t [...]

Here, Mama.

Megan is two.
She finds lots of things on the floor. She only puts things she actually thinks are food into her mouth anymore. I don’t worry about it too much.
Although there was a day a while back that she told me she’d found (and eaten) a raisin. But her tongue was blue. Hmm. Maybe it [...]
