More Conversations with Audrey

In the store recently:

Audrey: [Picture Audrey's arms around my neck] I love you mom!
Me: I love you too.
Audrey: I'm going to miss you so much.
Me: Where am I going?
Audrey: Will you marry me?
Me: This is getting very Freudian

In the distraction and fury created by the talk I had to give in sacrament meeting, I missed some important details...
Audrey's and my conversation as I realized she was walking into the church foyer carrying a plate with a ginormous cinnamon roll and a fork.
Me: Audrey, you may not carry your breakfast with you into Sacrament meeting.
Audrey: But I'm hungry!!!
Matt: This is so embarrassing!!
Me to Nathan: You handle this. I'm going to sit on the stand.

***

Me: Audrey, your skin is getting so brown for summer!
Audrey: I don't want to be brown! I want to be beige!

Conversations with Audrey...Part 1



This is how Audrey feels about her new Tinkerbell toilet seat. And toilets in general, I'm afraid.

Audrey does not enjoy potty "training." Once she realized that it is not an actual train she gets to ride, she's been quite resistant. Our most recent conversation about it:

Me: How about we wear undies today?
Audrey: No
Me: You're a big girl now. [3 yrs. 7 months, and 5 lbs lighter than her 7-yr-old brother]
Audrey: I'm NOT a big girl! I'm not a teenager.
