The little things...

Just a few things that happened yesterday that I think are cute...

We got to babysit my niece Esi yesterday and she got to our house before we usually get up. Esi doesn't like it when her mom leaves so she was crying and a few seconds later Brooklyn comes walking out with a scowl on her face, "Esi woked me up mom!" It was so matter of fact and blunt I couldn't help but laugh.

Later in the day she would walk around saying "Esi is my favorite cousin!"

Last night she wanted a Jolly Rancher and she said to me "Mom, I need a jelly bean rancher."

I got her in the tub and even managed to wash her hair (this is a huge deal at our house). When I got her out I bribed her with a 'jelly bean rancher' so that I could braid her hair. Then I decided I would try and bath while she watched cartoons. I got the water in the tub and stepped in right when she came through the bathroom door. "Mama I want to get in with you." I told her no because she just had a bath, so what does she do? She starts undressing. Needles to say my relaxing bath turned into a short bath turned over to my two year old. Then while I was getting dressed she decided she wanted to wash her hair again, why I don't know becasue she absolutely hates it. I told her no again and continued to get dressed. When I turned back around she was dumping water on her head!!! So much for the braids! She managed to take a few of the elastics out. Then when I asked her why she did it she smiled and said, "because I wanted to." What a stinker.

I just adore her!
