Our little almost 3 year old has been saying some pretty cute things lately and I wanted to jot them down before I forget!
On a walk in the snow (while stopping in several random yards to do snow-angels) Ruthie notices the sky and exclaims, "When I lay like this I can see the sky! It's beautiful!" (of note: it was a cloudy gray day but made me think gosh, if we all had that optimism in the winter!)
While talking about baby..."I want a girl baby" "How does it get out?" I want a baby in my belly"
Ruthie what should we name the baby? "Princess Sandcastle!" Asked a different day and she responded, "Pizza!"
Singing..."God made everything beautifuuulllll!" I asked where she learned that song..." I made it up!"
Also we have a few inside jokes that she likes to tell me randomly or when she wants to distract or make me smile.
Background: There is a fantastic children's book called 'The Day the Crayons Quit' and the page about the peach crayon makes her laugh and laugh because his (the crayon's) wrapper gets peeled off leaving him naked and asking for underwear. So randomly she'll just look at me and say, "PEACH CRAYON!" and then we laugh and laugh. She likes to say this to strangers, too, who she fully expects to get the joke...but they don't.
Another Ruthie joke is, "The octopus tooted" because of an octopus bath toy that when squeezed underwater makes bubbles. So she'll whisper to me, "the octopus tooted!" and then giggles :)
And finally there is another joke involving another great book The Nuts: Bedtime at the Nuthouse and let's just say "Nut Butt" is Ruthie's favorite line in the book! She has a dance to go with it too.
What a cutie pie- these are the days!

Putting her lips on my growing belly, "I love you baby"

"I wish I were a bird so I could fly!"
