Kids do the funniest things!

The Little found my high school graduation cap and thought is was the coolest thing. Dale freaked out a little to see her wearing a graduation cap. If he had his way, she would always stay a baby.



The Little is now potty trained while she is awake. During naps and night time, we use pull ups. The other day, I told the Little to go and get a pull up for bedtime. She went and got a couple. The result is below:

Cinderella

Several weeks ago, the Little announced that she was Cinderella Robbins. As of this week, she is Cinderella, Dale is "Prince", and I am the Queen. It's pretty cute. For a few days, she hasn't called Dale anything but Prince and corrects anyone who refers to him otherwise.

Funny things 2 year olds say

Dale and the Little took the trash out to the western balcony in the late afternoon. From this balcony, you can see downtown Salt Lake City very well. The sun was beginning to think about setting.
The Little: My eyes are getting sunny.

Dale and the Little were going for a walk and trying to find the Little's hat before leaving. It was MIA, so The Little said: I'll just wear my hair.

Wearing Feet

Dale and the Little were going to the basement the other day. Dale told the Little to go and get her sandles to wear and she said, "Can I wear my feet?"

This is my box


The other afternoon, the Little proudly showed me the box she had made. I have to say, I was pretty impressed.

Alligators in Utah

We have now moved to a 15 floor apartment building, which is close to where Dale works and will be going to school. We live on the 14th floor. When ever we are about to leave the apartment, The Little asks, "Are we going on the alligator?" (translation: Are we going on the elevator?)

Florida Trip Part 2

In front of our hotel room at Disney, there was a large tennis court with a figure of Donald Duck on one side and figures of Huey, Dewey, and Louie. The Little enjoyed playing around the statues while we were there.

Day 2 at Disney started around 7 am for us. Dale when to McDonalds and got us breakfast. The Little calls that same place "Old McDonald had a farm." Later, we drove to the Magic Kingdom parking lot. We decided to take the Ferry to the entrance. It was either that or the Monorail. From the Ferry, you get a great view of Cinderella's Castle from a distance. We tried pointing it out to The Little for a while and the all of a sudden she exclaimed "It's Cinderella's Castle!"


At the Magic Kingdom, the Little got a similar stroller to the one from the Animal Kingdom except it was blue.


After we picked up The Little's stroller, we got family pictures taken in front of the castle. You can see said photos in the May 7 entry and my profile. We walked around the castle and saw the Sword and the Stone. The Little enjoys that movie, and so Dale tried to get a picture of her with it, but there just so happened to be Mickey Mouse head shaped confetti on the ground which was much more interesting.

The first ride we went on was Cinderella's Carousel. Once the ride got going, she really enjoyed it, as you can see below. Grandma, Grandpa, and Mandi also really enjoyed the ride.Probably the highlight of the day for The Little and her entourage was when she got to meet Sleeping Beauty, Cinderella, and Belle. The Little was somewhat overwhelmed and didn't speak or smile the whole time we were in the room with them, but could stop talking about it afterwards.



We ended the day by seeing the parade. Abby sat with Grandpa and really enjoyed it. We really enjoyed our trip to Florida and to Disney World. Thanks to Grandma and Grandpa for the opportunity.
