Oh mommy?

Yes dear!

This is a "conversation" we have over and over again. AK asks "oh mommy?" and I answer "yes dear?". Over and over and over again. Last night, I realized AK was saying "oh mommy, yes dear!" all on her own. Guess I'm off the hook and don't have to participate in the conversation at all, ha!

AK was up again around midnight or so with "teef hurt" again. Poor kid. I can feel some of the points of the molar have come through the gum. She is in amazingly good spirits otherwise though. Realized last night after putting AK to bed that we'd had a happy, relatively terrible-two-free day. She is such a joy.

This morning, AK was VERY concerned with Bubba's food and water. She went over to the storage area where the food is kept and opened the door. She took the food dish out and brought it to me to fill. She put the dish back in and lifted the water dish out so I could fill it. She stood back to survey her work and was quite pleased with herself.

She had half a banana and a bit of my ham/cheese sandwich for breakfast this morning. She picked out her outfit and shoes for the day. She was not very happy when we opened the door though, to find butterflies. They scared her, which surprised me. We also saw some big snails outside the door when we came in last night. That was neat.
