100 Things - Day 6
Apr. 24th, 2012 10:49 pmYeah, I know, I missed yesterday. But Miss Thing has passed yet another cold onto me and I was barely functioning yesterday. Ugh. But onwards....
So this is somewhat of a continuation from the Day 5 story. She's got her 'obsessions' with what she wants to watch on tv, and she definitely has favorites out of her video collection for her 'obsession'. For examply, she absolutely adores Mickey's Christmas Carol, even going so far as to cheer when the video starts.
In effort to steer her away from watching the same things over and over and over again, I began to make suggestions that always started with "How about..." I also did this when she would continually ask for chocolate milk. However, my intelligent little girl began countering my suggestions.
A typical conversation for a while went like this:
Miss Thing: Mickey!
Me: How about Phineas and Ferb?
Miss Things: How 'bout Mickey!
Me: No, we just watched Mickey. How about Phineas and Ferb?
Miss Thing: How 'bout Mickey!
Now just picture this conversation going on with just about everything from what she was eating to what clothes to wear. (and yes, she's started being picky about clothes already)
