Pants

Well she has started to wear pants more often.  I was hoping they would be on her legs:)

Gorgeous

Uma and I were lying in bed and she was playing with my hair and her hair.

Uma “Mommy, I am gorgeous.”

I didn’t know she knew that word.

Me “Yes, you are.”

Uma “Mommy, you are gorgeous.”

Ohh she thinks I am pretty, what a sweet girl.

Me “Thank you Uma”

Uma “Puppy is gorgeous.”

Ok, so that word just lost all meaning for me.

I Didn't Ask Which Grandma

Uma "Mom come looook."
Me (in the office)  "Just a sec"
Uma "Mooom.  My fingers."
Me "Uh ok Uma, just a sec"
Uma "Mom my fingers, come look!"
Me "Ok"

I walked out to the living room.

Me "What is wrong Scoobie"
Uma "My fingers, look like grandma's"

Ha, ha, I didn't ask which one she was talking about.   She now knows what happens if you stay in a shower too long and when you get old.

Don't let the bugs get you

Uma "Mom clean my ears"
Me "Why"
Uma "I have ear bugs."
Me "Ok just a second"
Uma "NO!  NOW!  They're eating my braaaain."

Oobie, Me, and Belle.  Uma's brain fully intact and bug free.

A Princess with a song in her heart

Princess Uma's birthday was today and she is now 3 and oh how the time is flying by.  Just over the weekend she seemed to mature, it's like she knew she needed to act like a three year old not a two year old.

To celebrate her birthday Uma and I took a girls only weekend to Disneyland.  We had a wonderful time and on our trip Uma composed two new songs.

Song #1 sang in line at Disneyland waiting to get on Alice in Wonderland ride.  Please keep in mind she is in full Princess gear while singing this little ditty.

"I hate MY OATMEAL, I hate MY OATMEAL, I HATE MY oatmeal, I HATE MY OATMEAL"

(Now I know she didn't really like the breakfast I made that morning.)

Song #2 sang on the way home from Disneyland somewhere on I15 between Barstow and Vegas

"Uke I am your father.  Luke I am your father.  I am Dark Gator.  I am Dark Gator."

Oobie and all her DLand crap!

Someday she will get married

So Uma and I love Pinterest (yes Uma does too).  And today we saw a post about taking a picture of your little girl in your wedding dress and then displaying the photo at her wedding when she is grown.  I loved the idea and got my dress out of the back of the closet. 

Uma and I had great fun with this project.

Someday the dress will fit.



Pancakes

So Uma loves pancakes and some days she only wants to eat pancakes.  She loves all types including plain pancakes, nana-cakes, nutty-cakes, and pb-cakes.

So Friday, Uma and I were home alone (brothers at school) and Daddy was out and about.  I was working in the office but was trying to keep up with some of Uma's demands.  I had already made her nutty-nana-cakes (that's bananas and peanut butter) with whip cream before lunch and it was now about 2pm.

From the kitchen I hear the cupboards open and closing...

Uma yells "Mommy!  Come make me pancakes!"
Me (yelling from the office)  "I already made you pancakes today, I'm not making anymore."
Uma yells " Fine!  I'll make them myself."
Me (still yelling from office) "You don't know how to make pancakes."
A moment of silence
Uma "Then you make them."
