And Now You Know

  File these tidbits under things you don't need to know but now do.

1)  ClaraBelle does not want to be 3, and she said no she is "not going to be three".  She is "going to be 2, and then she will be 6 when she wants to be".  So there.

2) Watching Chris and I enjoy some cool beers with an incredible steak dinner (way to go Chris, that was FABULOUS!) ClaraBelle announced that her teachers give the kids beer everyday before their nap.  Obviously I know this isn't true, but the mental image it conjures just makes me laugh hysterically.

3) "Nanny nanny boo boo" is her new favorite thing.  It annoys the poo out of me.

4) She has a 'thing' we must do.  For a while now, she has claimed Chris and I wholeheartedly and often.  "You're my daddy." or "That's my daddy" or "You're my mommy".  So everytime she would say "You're MY mommy..." I would say "You're MY ClaraBelle".  And heavens-to-Betsy if there's a time I'm just not in the mood to say it, she looks at me and says "but you're supposed to say I'm your ClaraBelle".  And then I scoop my puddly self off the floor, and give her a big hug.  

And before I know it, in the other room I hear "nanny nanny boo boo"....
