Things That Fly Out of Our Mouths

“Do nice! Niceness! Niceness to each other!”

“Aim down so you don’t pee on your pants!” And yes, that IS directed at my female child. Go figure.

“Stop sticking things up your nose!”

“Use words or I cannot help you!”

“We don’t eat the toothpaste.”

“Mommy doesn’t like to have [insert play dough, paper towel, slice of cheese, etc. here] in her coffee.” Yes, I drank an entire cup of interesting tasting coffee only to discover a hunk of green play dough soaking on the bottom. Yum.

“Hands don’t belong down our pants.”

“Poop goes in the potty.”

“You still working on that poop?”

“We do NOT poop in the bath tub!” Yes, I have noticed it, too. So much of my daily conversations now concern base bodily functions. Exciting.

“Library books are not used to make confetti!”

“Our feet like to stay UNDER the table during dinner!”



Things that fly out of my daughter’s mouth on a daily basis:


“Where is pumpkin? Where is pumpkin? Here I am…”

“I am going to bring my pajamas into the space ship.” Yeah, that one was totally out of left field.

“That’s Alizée’s car. Want Alizée to drive? Yeah? Okay!”

“Oliver wants to sleep in my bed!”

“Whatchyoosay?!”

Recent conversation between Alizée and Uncle Matt:

A- “Now you stay right here in the bathroom and I am turning off the light and closing the door. You stay right here and do NOT open the door and do NOT call for Alizée. I am right here and you are in here because you are yelling.”
M- Completely confused and standing in a dark bathroom being scolded by a three
year old.


Come into the kitchen as breakfast is being eaten and Alizée says, “All the monkeys are eating!”

“Jesus rose again on the spaceship!” …I think we may have another cult leader on our hands!

“No, that’s my piracy!” She means privacy.

“Jus a spoonful of shoo heps the messin go down…a lox a scree, it’s very clee to see...” I used to like Mary Poppins very much until the last bout of ear infections. We have been singing it ever since.

“Oliver wants (insert whatever Alizée currently wants here)!”

“I wanna get outta here!” Yeah, well you know what? Sometimes I do too!!

  3. "Jesus rose again on the spaceship" - MY FAVE!!! LOL! Perhaps Uncle Andrew can say "hello" on his next trip, since, according to Mia, that is where Uncle Andrew always flies to..."space and back, space and back." :)
