Laura: Sophia! Please answer your sister.
Sophia: What.
Thalia: My eyes are closed!
Laura: That was worth it, hahaha!

Car Shopping

Laura's Post:

Me: Thalia, we're going to shop for a new car today.
Thalia: A racing car?!
Me: No.
Thalia: (disappointed) Oh. OK...

She had other suggestions (which I don't think can fit three car seats)...

The Dawn Treader's Poop Deck

While driving around town running errands, we were listening to an audiobook of C.S. Lewis's The Voyage of the Dawn Treader, Chapter Eight, "Two Narrow Escapes":

...And now the real danger was at hand. Could they get it over the poop, or was it already too tight? Yes. It would just fit. It was resting on the poop rails. A dozen or more sprang up on the poop. This was far better. The Sea Serpent’s body was so low now that they could make a line across the poop and push side by side....

Thalia: Haha! Poop. He pushed poop. Haha...

I know. Obvious potty humor. But I was eagerly anticipating my two-year-old to point that out, and she did not disappoint, haha...

I hear that's been spreading.

Thalia's Theme Song

I overheard Thalia playing in the living room by herself joyfully singing her new theme song:

I can't obey Daddy!
I can't obey Daddy!
I Caaaaan't!
Obeeeeeey!
I can't do it!
Daddy!..."

at least it's catchy...
