More words, more Mina-isms, that’s about it

So, today we’re staying home and resting, rather than going to the park.  Mina woke up pretty snotty this morning, and while it’s not bad, and she doesn’t have a fever, I think we’ll just chill.  I don’t want be the mom who knowingly brings a sick kid to the park.  Especially since one of the other moms is pregnant.  Plus, it’s been so long since she’s gotten sick, I’m expecting this one to be a doozy.  I have no scientific reason to say that.  But damnit, I’ll say it anyway.

Otherwise, all is well here.  As expected, Mina’s vocabulary and grasp of language just keeps growing every day.

Here’s one our Peoria readers will like.  The other day, walking out to the car, Mina turns to me and says:

“Momma, Mina like Daddy better.”

Uhhhh huh.  Thanks.  Go make your own lunch, kid.

And one of my new favorites, that’s starting to be a recurring thing:

“Two more minutes!”  Seriously.  We were at Jenna’s not long ago, and it was getting late, and it was time to go, but Mina wanted to hang out with the dogs a little longer, of course.  So we told her it was time to get into the car and she turned to us and stated very matter of factly, “two more minutes!  Two minutes, please!”

Mark said she did the same thing to her the other night when he took her over to the playground and it was time to come home.

*sigh*
