This weekend, and particularly on Sunday, Gianna has been pretty hysterical. Like I wanted to bottle up her hilarious because she has also been equally hysterical in the OMGSTOPWHINING sense lately too.
Life during the holidays with an almost 3 (holy shit….) year old is going to be pretty awesome, I think. Kind of like rediscovering the magic again – even more so than years past because she is totally digging it!
But, on with the funny:
- Every time someone told Gianna Happy Thanksgiving, she would say “Happy Thanksgivin’ Gobble Gobble” complete with sign language turkey motion. HILARIOUS! (also, OMG she remembered that from last year!)
- A little holiday information for you: Socks = stockings, Rudolph has a sparkly nose, elf’s fly, baby Jesus was a little girl (I really can’t get her to understand that He is in fact NOT a little girl!) and glitter is awesome!
- When she discovered Krista, her magical elf:
G:”OOOOH look what Mommy bought for me.
Me: Mommy didn’t buy that, I think it might be from the North Pole. what do you think that is?”
Gianna: “IT’S AN ANCIENT ROMAN!” (she was seriously SO excited).
Me: That’s actually an elf…from the North Pole.
Gianna: Oh, AN ELF! I LOVE elfs!
- Waiting in line to see Santa and it’s almost our turn*:
G: “Oh look at Santa, he is so cute”
Me: “What are you going to ask him for?”
G: “a horsie”.
We get up there….she buries her head in my shoulder and says nothing. We give santa a high five and leave, Gianna then says “I love Santa”….
*Note: Gianna is scared to death of any man with a beard, I knew Santa had disaster written all over it. Parenthood is awesome.
I love the stuff they say. In our house stockings = socks and it's hilarious that we hang them up.
ReplyDelete"Ancient Roman???" I guess the trip to Italy really paid off!
ReplyDeleteIt's amazing what they remember year to year, isn't it? Loved the part where she remembered the sign!
