28 months - quotes and current peeves

"powowo". she says this but actually wants to say "pororo". this also means tries to correct me when i say "powowo" by saying "po----wo----wo" very slowly by way of teaching me the "right" pronunciation and beams at me and says "YES!" when i say "pororo"

"sssss-co-weee" for chloe and "orpato" for oswaldo ... the new kids in her class.

"the problem is no battery!" when asked what was causing the ipad to be unusable.

after trying to tell me at least 4 times with an earnest face and big eyes that "auntie dawn buy me the peppa pig toy" only to have me repeat it as "we didn't buy the peppa pig toy", she looks at me when i finally get it and says "you forgot her name ah??"

"you are not going to work ah?!" when i put on my shorts/tshirt on weekday mornings even when she is dressed for school.

"this is a nonsense story!" after i tell her about a boy who lands up face down in his lunch because he didn't sleep enough the night before.

"papa, mummy, h, didi. FOUR!" when i ask her how many people stay in our house. she also names and and can count everyone who stays in her grandparents' and g-grandma's homes.

she hates it if the car moves before she puts on her seatbelt. she will also ask me "have you put on your seatbelt?" "you want me to help you?" 

she can remember and press the password access codes for the ipad and her grandma's iphone. she will tell me "don't say!" if i mention the codes as she is keying them in because she wants to hao lian.

"this is your doctor also??" when we visit the nearby RMG clinic instead of dr w.

"don't ask me so many questions" when i ask more than 2 questions about what happened at school.

"are you feeling better? i feed you medicine ok?" when she comes into our bedroom in the morning after we tell her the night before that my back is pain.

.... more to come as this month rolls on!
