An update on my 20-month-old little blonde monkey (for lioneye, et al):

A couple of her new favorite things in the whole wide world are "Happy" and "Sad".
As in, when you ask, "What do Megasauruses say?" she replies, "HAPPIEEEE!" (and will gallop up and down the hall singing, "Haappie, haappie, haaappiieee!") and she likes to point-out everyone around her that looks crestfallen with, "Ssaad."

Today I made buttermilk pancakes.
She was given hers with the requisite butter and syrup.
After a while of swirling her finger around atop the pancake and then licking the sugary stuff off of her hand, she pointed at the syrup jar and said, "Moe."
"No, Meg, you have enough on there."
"Moe *peas*."
"No, Meg, you've really had enough," followed by Meg covering her face with her crossed arms and throwing herself down upon her tray.
She then quieted, righted herself, looked intently at me, ran a single finger down her cheek (as in the path of tear) and said, "Ssaaaad."

I burst out laughing.
I don't think that that was the response she was going for.

She repeated herself (as if instructing a particularly slow person), "Ssaaad..." (her finger running down her cheek).

I had to walk away so I wouldn't fall out of the chair. (No worries re: her emotional development: I did come back and explain that while I understand that she's sad, more syrup would not be good for her. And then walked away again and laughed some more out of sight.)

I love my daughter

Awww you sound like such a good mom. That's the kind of mom I want to be.

Your daughter sounds adorable.

Funny indeed.

Prox... your stories make me miss my babies

They're all big now... don't fit in my arms. NEVER fall asleep on my shoulder.

Cherish this time! It goes so quickly!!

Prox, she sounds like a very bright little bull. Oh, the fun you'll have Being a mom is a real riot sometimes, I agree totally.

I'd love to see a recent pic of our baby girl, if you could be so kind, Prox daaahlink (that's "darling" said with a Zha-Zha Gabor accent)
