A conversation with a 2 1/2 year old

So Haylie, who was in the process of filling her diaper, loves to hang out at my elbow at all times, especially when I'm on the computer. Here's how our conversation went:

me: Haylie, can you please move away because that smell is making me sick.

H: ok mommy, I will. and when you're done playing your game, you can change my diaper.

me: wow Haylie, that's sounds great. Sounds like a dream come true.

H: no mom, a dream come true is when you say Bibbity Bobbity Boo. And if you have a fairy Godmother, she will say that and give you some glass slippers.

me: oh. sorry. my mistake.



I love Disney.

Reasons I can't wait to have my own house

1 - I can' t wait to let my kids go out in the backyard and play while I am making dinner or am otherwise engaged and I don't have to go with them because it will be fully fenced.

2- I. can't. wait. to. paint.

3 - I can't wait to hook our water line up to our fridge again and not have to refill the water pitcher 10 times a day.

4- I can't wait to be able to open our blinds and not be staring at (or being stared at by) the people walking down the sidewalk or the drivers on 300 South.

5 - I can't wait to be able to put Hunter down for a nap on a different floor than us and therefore not have to shush the other kids every 10 seconds.

6 - I can't wait to buy furniture and actually have the room to rearrange it if I want.

7 - I can't wait for Brandon getting ready in the morning to not wake the kids up.

8 - I can't wait to have a place to do crafts. Cause I really want to do some crafts.

9 - I can't wait to be paying a mortgage and not rent.

10 - I can't wait to have Brandon's commute be shorter so he can spend more time with us.

11 - I can't wait to live close to our friends in Lehi and Thanksgiving Point. (Though we will miss our friends here, luckily, they're all moving too)

12 - I can't wait for the kids to have a playroom. And keep the toys somewhat confined to one area.

13 - I can't wait (and hope that we get to move early enough) to have fun sprinkler parties in the summer.
