Dose of our own medicine....

Nora is at the stage when 'why, why, why' and 'what you doing? what you doing?' come out of her mouth repeatedly!

Of course, as a mommy I'm used to answering the same question again and again. (Even if some days it's the reason I need a second cup of coffee)

Rich, well he doesn't handle this so well. Nor will ask him 'What you doing' about three times in 5 minutes. His answer, 'Talking to elephants?!'.

I guess we were in for a dose of our own medicine while my parents were here over Easter.

Rich as singing ABC's with Nora at the dinner table and got to the letter 'g'. He asked Nora, 'What comes after the letter 'G' Nora?'

Nora, " Other letters"

She said this with the straightest face and continued to eat her noodles. Meanwhile, all the adults spewed dinner or drink out of their mouths!

Oh and it gets better.....

The next night my dad was making her count her blueberries as she ate them. Nora was sitting there with one in each hand and asked, 'Nora how many do you have left?'

She promptly stuffed both in her mouth and said, 'No more.'

Poppy(my dad) just sat there chuckling and shaking his head. He says we are in trouble, I tend to agree.

She's 2.5 yrs old and out smarting the games adults try to play with her.
