Funny Ashley Stories

Brandon has finally reached the end of his Mackay rotation. Hooray for having my hubby back, I think. His next rotation is surgery, so we'll see. Ashley and Cody were ecstatic to see their daddy today.

When it was time for bed, Ashley was being pretty pitiful. She didn't want to go to bed, she wanted to play with her daddy. We did let the kids stay up an hour past bedtime, but still, there comes a point when it is just time. Brandon was talking her into going down to her room to pick out PJs. Here is the conversation that ensued:

Ash: Daddy, I want you to carry me.
Brandon: No, you are a big girl. You can walk.
Ash: I'm not a big girl, carry me.
Brandon: I can't carry you. I'm too tired. What if I drop you on your head, you would get hurt.
Ash: Daddy, I can't walk. I might slip. I might fall on the grapes (referring to some toy grapes laying on the floor).

Holy Crap, we laughed hard. This kid just turned 3. My, she is clever.




Ashley is potty trained, HOORAY! Actually, it really happened quite suddenly. She decided she was ready one day and that was that. She had been having some trouble with pooping on the potty though, and she needs help wiping when she poops. This last weekend when Brandon was home, he was helping her wipe her bum and told her to bend over a little bit so he could wipe easier. She says, "Daddy, I'll hold on to your hair legs". (to keep from falling off the toilet).

The next time she went poo I was the one helping her. I told her to bend over a little bit and she goes, "Mommy, I'll hold on to your hairy le...Mommy, you don't have hairy legs. I'll just hold on to your legs."

We thought that was pretty funny too. Hope you enjoyed.
