DD wanted me to get the helicopter out of the sky today! 
Took quite a bit of explaining to get her to accept I couldn't just get it for her   :)

LOL

On the similar note, Adrian asked to please go to the airport and  take a ride in an airplane. :) It was hard to explain why we couldn't.

Sooooo cute :D :D

You reminded me:
Ds loooooooooves my Dad (his Taid) - he'd do anything for him (and vice versa ;)). They were star-gazing early one evening, and my Dad was showing him the moon - they were shouting 'hiya moon!'. Dad said that he'd like the moon, and asked ds to fetch it for him - so off ds went down the road, as fast as his little legs could carry him, towards the moon, shouting 'fetch moon for Taidy'. Tried not to laugh too much, but it was so funny ;D ;D

Oh Caroline that's just so special!!  :-*  :D

Colin has just started doing the most amazing thing - he puts his little hands on my cheeks and gently pulls my face to him and kisses me over and over.... it just melts me every single time. It's the only gentle thing he really does!

My favorite is is when she calls me honey. Or she'll rub my face really gently and look into my eyes and say I love you mom, your the best! It makes my heart melt :)

We showed Gaby different types of kisses. Now you just never know if you'll get a real kiss, Eskimos kiss or butterfly kiss. Love it!

DH brought Marshall into our bed this morning when he woke up as we were feeling groggy...and Marshall crawled on me, sat on my chest, poked me in the eye and said "eye!" First time he's ever said that word. Funny how an early morning stick in the eye is O.K. when it comes from your sweet baby boy! :)

I REALLY needed to read this thread again today, we've so been struggling with sleep. I also wanted to ....

  tonight when I was reading Gaby her book before bed I was asking her to point out the different characters on the page. So 1st I ask her to point out Dora, she points to Boots and behind her soother I can see her get this little smirk. Then I ask her where is Diego, she points to Dora and I'm watching facial expressions the whole time, she is giggling so hard inside she can hardly contain it. Last I ask her where Boots is, she points to Diego, I looked at her and said, 'are you sure?' and she broke out in laughter and was saying "Silly Daby" (daby cuz she can't say G's yet) over and over.

Man I love that kid, even if she has tired me out. Her little antics gave me the re-charge I needed tonight.

Kisses to the cute toddlers out there :-*

I'm so glad you posted...we've been having a rough time with "mr.independent" and it's so good to read these again...

And one for me...

I love that he forgives ME so readily when I haven't been the best mom of the day....

I apologize and he holds my face between his hands and says "ya mama, ya" and then kisses me (eskimo kisses too)...and then I KNOW what unconditional love is all about....

Gosh toddlers are fun here are some of my favorite things
She wants to hug and kiss everything, her cup, pictures, toys, people
She says   "Luv you mommy/daddy/nuggly" (her lovey)
When she gives hugs she says  "ahhhh"
She is starting to make the kiss sound when she kisses
She will bring me the digital camera and say "baby" (she wants to see picutres of herself)
She always thinks its daddy on the phone and say "hi daddy"
She will ask for a song (wants me to sing) and she will start swaying her head like Stevie Wonder
She has to close all doors
If she sees an owie on you she has to kiss it, and if she bonks or gets an owie she wants you to kiss it
She says   "coming" or "Tallie coming" when I say I am going to get or do something

There are so many more but I will stop there.  What a great thread!!

I don't think Freya really counts as a toddler any more :'( but anyway... I hear her repeating what I say and it makes me laugh sooooo much... for example if I ask her a question she says "mummy, I don't know" just like I do, and when she's trying to do a puzzle, and Eryn steals the bits and crawls off with them, she looks all stern and says "Eryn, that's not helpful!" just like I do, and when I say "no" to her she now says "don't you say no to me mummy" just like I do!

 ;D
