Alone forever!

Laying in bed last night:

Fiona: my leg hurts. I think it’s from growing too much.

Me: aw, I’m sorry honey. I bet it’ll feel better in the morning. It’s good that you’re growing, though!

F: I think I wanna stop growing.

Me: and be this size forever?

F: yeah. I’m not ready to be a grown up yet.

Me: well, you have a long way to go to be a grown up. Why don’t you want to be a grown up?

F: because I don’t wanna have kids and I don’t wanna get married!

Me: well, you can be a grown up but not get married or have kids.

F: what?! So I can just be ALONE FOREVER? No thanks! I’m staying a kid so I can be with you and daddy forever!

Sedate me

Fiona was having a hard time falling asleep tonight. Most nights we just lay with her for 5-10 minutes and then leave before she's asleep. Tonight she wanted someone to stay and kept crying hysterically when we would leave the room. I came back in and told her to take some deep breaths to calm down and then I was doing just that to demonstrate. She stops me, saying, "no, mom, that's just for kids". Then a few minutes later, still upset, she says "you give me some medicine, help me calm down?" So yeah, my 2 year old wants anti-anxiety meds. 😳

Bedtime 10/5/15

Reading a book where at the end, a daddy bear kisses his baby goodnight: F: I mooch da baby too? Me: Sure, that would be nice. F: (kisses book baby) Me: Can I have a mooch too? F: No. I only mooch books. 📚😘

Bedtime 9/10/15

"I wanna snuggle you, mommy. Snuggle me? YOU. SNUGGLE. MY. SELF!" Then, singing what must be a remix to "baa baa black sheep" - "baa baa black sheep, have you any wool? Yes sir yes sir, 3 bags full. One for the monster, one for the day, one for the little boy who lives at the lake!"

What I do in bed with my husband:

Change Siri's language and ask questions in Spanish and French and see if she understands us.

She does.

Jerome has a Samsung though. S-Voice mainly says something along the lines of "I don't know what you're talking about, here's a web search."

And then we laugh about it.

My plan for dealing with bedtime antics

by Sabrina Garibian posted in Tips & Tricks "I scared." "I hungry." "I want some waterrrrrrr." "I want some chicken." "I wanna sleep in mama's bed." I hear all of these things at bedtime every single night from my 2 year old. It's been going on for a few weeks now and I'm not sure... Read more » Want to get the full story?
