an all over want

Peanut: "Mommy, can you turn on my tv?" (meaning Playhouse Disney/Treehouse)

Mommy: "I'm just feeding your brother so you'll have to wait till I'm done"

Peanut: "But daddy might come and turn on his tv!"

Mommy: "Well, you'll have to wait, I can't get up right now"

Peanut: "Ok. Can I play my game if daddy puts on his tv then?"

Mommy: "Maybe a little bit later"

Peanut: "But my whole body is telling me that it really wants to play my Franklin game" (a Nintendo DS game)

a fact

Peanut: "There's no two Peanuts!"

coffee girl

Mommy and daddy were going through the drive through at Tim Hortons, daddy needed a coffee and we only had $2 on us, so that was all we could get...

Peanut: "I would like a sprinkle donut and an orange juice"

Mommy: "Sorry Peanut, all we have is $2 so daddy's just gonna get a coffee"

Peanut: "Can I get an orange juice?"

Mommy: "Sorry sweety, we only have enough for one coffee"

Peanut: ""But little girls don't like coffee!"

a letter to her dog

Koda went to live with grandma and grandpa, they have TONS more room for him to run and play, but he still keeps in touch by emailing Peanut with stories of what he's been up to and how much fun he's having. Peanut really loves to hear from Koda, this is her response to his most recent email:

"Hi Koda, I wish I can come back to you. Even I can bring your ball and throw it for you and then you can catch the ball. I asked Santa to give you a bone for Christmas, not a toy bone, a real bone. A real big shiny bone and a strong bone cause you're getting strong. I want to see you next snow day! Mommy's helping me write this cause I'm still learning, but I want to try to write something to you....

hihiyihuihuigujhdsaasaeriifiof9kgbbbbbhhfjfgjjfkjggggggggggggggggggggggggggggggggggggggggggjjjetghdm njhknhkjhkkmkbjbnngkggggggggggkvvnvb

That says "I wish I can pet you" but that's not all what I want to type....

vbbvjbjcbvcjvjccbvjcvjvbjvcbvjcvjovcbvjcjvbcvjcbjcvbjbbbvjcjvjvjfvccjhvcgchgfh

That one says "I wish I can show you Wall-E" (he's a toy robot I have from a movie that J and S took me to see a while back, the theater was so cool!)

I'm coming to see you at Christmas, and I really want you to pull me in the sled, that would be so fun! I want to type three more things to you Koda....

vvjvjchjbjhvjhbvjhbg (I wish I can show you my dance)

vbjjbjvjjcbvjcbvjcbvcbvcjvcbvcbjvj (I wish I can show you my new doggy game and my regular doggy game)

hvhfhhvgvfhfhgfhvchfghghghghhdfhdghfhdgdhghd (I want to bring you a present and I wish that my cousins would show you their presents that they get from us)

(Not bad, I typed all that without looking at the keys, just like Mommy!) I love you Koda, be good to great grandma and great grandpa, that way they'll keep giving you gravy! See you soon!

Love, Your kid
Peanut"

Ovals

At dinner, while mommy and daddy were trying to have a conversation...

Peanut: "Daddy, daddy, can I tell you something?"

Daddy: "Yes Peanut, what would you like to say?"

Peanut: "Are our heads ovals?"

Daddy: "Yes, our heads are oval shapes I guess"

Peanut: "But some peoples heads are squares"

Daddy: "Yes, people come in all different shapes"

Peanut: "Let's put our oval heads together and think about it"

I thinked about it...

Whenever Peanut gets in trouble for something and has a time out to think about it, she usually yells out "I thinked about it!" when she's finished her time out. Every now and then when mommy and daddy listen to her in her time out, she'll be praying to God to thank him for mommy and daddy, all her friends and to help her to listen better. Most recently, in a time out for not listening and misbehaving at a store....

Peanut: "I thinked about it"

Mommy: "What did you think about?"

Peanut: "I thinked about listening and being a good girl and giving mommy and daddy a hug after thinking about it. And I thinked about God....well, ok, I didn't really think about God, but I thinked about lots of other things"

smelly breath

Peanut and daddy were having fun at breakfast...

Daddy: "oooh, you've got some bad morning breath Peanut!"

Peanut: "My breath doesn't stink!"

Daddy: "A bit, but daddy shouldn't say that, that's mean"

Peanut: "Ya"

Mommy: "It's ok Peanut, you can tell daddy he has halitosis"

Peanut: "Daddy, you have talent-posis"

daddy the family man

Peanut and mommy were talking about going to the mall. Peanut's favorite thing about the mall is the fountain, but for the Christmas season they close up the fountain and build a stage for Santa Clause pictures for the kids...

Peanut: "I want to go to the mall to see the fountain!"

Mommy: "The fountain is closed remember, to get it ready for Santa!"

Peanut: "I know, I want to go and see how the worker mans are doing, how the building is going"

Mommy: "Oh, are you going to ask them how it's coming along?"

Peanut: "No, the worker mans won't answer me!"

Mommy: "Why wouldn't they?"

Peanut: "Because they can't talk to me"

Mommy: "Daddy's a worker man, and he talks to you"

Peanut: "No, daddy's a family man"

Mommy: "No, daddy's a worker man, that's what he does"

Peanut: "When daddy comes home he's not a worker man anymore, he's a family man and then he can talk to me. Those other worker mans are too busy to talk to me"

the S word to the power of ten

Peanut and mommy were having lunch and listening to the radio. The radio announcer was asking a trivia question in a segment called "stupid questions"...

Peanut: "Stupid is a bad word"

Mommy: "I know, they shouldn't say it"

Peanut: "Ya, they shouldn't say stupid cause it's a bad word and I never say stupid cause stupid is a bad word"

Mommy: "You just said it four times, you shouldn't say it at all"

Peanut: "I know, cause stupid is a bad word, and if you say stupid to your friends then they'll maybe say stupid back and its not a nice word so you shouldn't say stupid and that's why I never say stupid"

Mommy: "I think you should stop saying it all together"

Peanut: "I won't say stupid"

If I can't see you, you can't see me

After getting a stern talking to from daddy about not behaving at the dinner table, Peanut started to chant to herself...

Peanut: "Look at mommy, don't look at daddy, look at mommy, don't look at daddy..."

Daddy: "Why are you saying that?"

Peanut: "Because you're mad at me, so I can't look at you, I'll look at mommy"

you know it

Mommy and daddy were having a conversation, when Peanut interrupted with this timeless saying that she came up with on her own...

Peanut: "Mommy, Daddy, listen to me. Watever the weather......you know it"

Loving the park

Mommy: "It's a nice day out today, so if you finish all your lunch we can go to the park. What do you think?"

Peanut: "That would be spectacular!"

Mr. Daddy

Peanut was telling Daddy all about when she grows up...

Peanut: "When I grow up I'll be a mommy and I'll be big enough to carry my own real baby, and I can knit like mommy"

Daddy: "When you have a baby do you know what I'll be to the baby?"

Peanut: "Ummmm....daddy?"

Daddy: "Nope, I'm always your daddy, guess again"

Peanut: "Ummmm,...Mr. Daddy!"

Daddy: "Nope, I'll be your baby's grandpa"
