Say What?

Eden: Look, I'm a bunny! Ribbit, Ribbit
Dad: Rabbits don't say 'Ribbit'.
Eden: Rabbit, Rabbit.

Hope: Mmmm. My hands smell good. I want to eat them.

Hope: I am sadder than sad.

Hope looks in the mirror and says: Hello handsome girl.

Dad to Eden: I'm gonna hang you up by your toes.
Eden: Are you really?
Dad: Don't you believe me?
Eden: No.

Hope: I want to go look at the pregnant people.

Eden to Hope: You are my best friend ever.

Eden Turns 3!

 
On the fifth, we celebrated Eden's third birthday. Ben described her entrance to this world as," a watermelon size bullet" and my friends, that is exactly what it felt like. Remembering that day is still a little overwhelming.
 
Daddy took the day off from work and we spent a lot of time at the store looking at toys. Daddy was frustrated with our lack of birthday fun, but Eden loved it. She played with all the toys and when we left she said, "I have FUN!"
She opened her presents and we sang Happy Birthday and ate birthday cupcakes. She really only ate the frosting though.
 


 
For the next several days she would say it's her birthday. She also sang Happy Birthday to herself.
 
What Eden likes:
frosting (as noted above)
teasing her older sister
playing outside, specifically swinging
snuggling on mommy's bed
My Little Ponies
bathtime
pre-school
nursery
story time
playing with her siblings
helping with laundry
snuggling with Muffin and Zoe
the bookstore (Barnes & Noble)
the library
going for walks
washing her hands all by herself
using the remote to open and close the garage door
asking LOTS of questions
when daddy comes home
making messes
doing stuff she knows you don't want her to do

Say What?

Eden: Mom, look! My bum is freaking out.

Hope: Can we get another dog?
Mom: I don't think so.
Hope to mommy: I wish a puppy could come out of your tummy.

Eden: I'm HUNGRY!
Dad: What do you want?
Eden: Chi...Ch....I can't seem to remember.

Mom: Are you feeling better today?
Hope: Yes. But my head hurts. I think it's cause my hair is so long.

Dad is leaving for work one morning and says: Bye. I love you.
Eden: I love you! Come again soon!
Dad: Okay, I will.
Eden: Be careful of the ice!

Dad: Why don't you go poop in the potty?
Eden: It just comes out.
Mom: Well when you feel it start to come out you need to say, 'Oh, I need to go potty.' and then hold it till you get on the potty and then you can let it come out.
Eden: THAT'S A GREAT IDEA MOM!!!
