Laughing is healthy.

Today, I was practically at my wits end with Paisley. She really IS great, but today she was extra naughty. But why why WHY, must she say the funniest things to make me laugh while I'm trying to be SERIOUS with her ? ? ?

Here's some things she said today that had me in stitches... (and sometimes I forget how funny something was unless I write it down... ) Hence, this post.

*Today we are at Wal- Mart and Paisley decides to "run amuck" of course. I'm trying to pay the lady and Paisley gets quiet, and she "toots." As if no one heard it, she announced at the top of her lungs "TOOOTED" and then she laughed to herself. ha ha.

*Tonight we are having dinner. I didn't forget that Paisley isn't a fan of BROCCOLI, but Im trying to believe that maybe one day she'll like it. (high hopes, I know.) So she eats the broccoli, makes a nauseous face, spits it out, quickly changes her face to a happy one then looks at me, and says ' I LIKE IT' !

*Today at the gym I was getting my stuff out of the locker and then I put Paisley's jacket on that she had ripped off. I'm not paying attention to the half nude woman beside me, but Paisley noticed her underwear AND reported " PANTIES.... pretty !! ". I had to laugh. Good thing she's so observant, right?

*Paisley sometimes will call you "guy" or "girl" if she doesn't know your name. Today at the gym, in the LADIES locker room, she called a lady "GUY"... uh, oops?! The "guy" was indeed a lady. I just pretended like I didn't hear her and HOPED the guy/lady didn't hear it!

*As I told Paisley it was time to go to bed, she looks me in the eye, get "this" close to my face, points her little finger and says "MINUTES". Once again, I had to laugh. And she won. I gave her more "minutes".

I know I need to be more of a "stickler" a lot of the time. But sometimes, I'm okay with just laughing instead.

HOPE YOUR DAY IS GREAT! HAVE A HAPPY THANKSGIVING !!
ps. IM COOKING A TURKEY FOR A LOT OF PEOPLE, SOOOO.... WISH ME LUCK!

Look at this face...

Wouldnt ya JUST think she's the sweetest thing in the WHOLE WORLD when you see that face. I would think so. And ususually she is.


HOWEVER, she is almost TWO, and i think it's catching up to her!! This past week, she's had a violent streak with other kids, and is just being super NAUGHTY AND TRYING MY PATIENCE!!!!!! for reals. I don't even know what to do. She's been "hugging" kids, but it's more like she gets them in a headlock and is choking them. ITs absolutely crazy. I get so frustrated. Is she trying to be hurtful or is she trying to just give hugs but is too agressive? Im at a loss. What are your SUGGESTIONS FOR ME ?
