Another big snow storm = another snow day (school’s canceled) = another long weekend. And so here’s what we did to celebrate for & kick off the weekend.

Dinner was almost ready. We had already told Kaitlyn that she needed to clean up all her toys in the living room before she can eat. Instead of cleaning up, she went into her room & started playing there.

“Why are all your toys still out on the floor here?” asked Melanie, while getting Kaitlyn’s bowl of food ready in the Kitchen.

Unfazed & with no hesitation, Kaitlyn replied, “Whatever.”

An hour or so before, I put her in timeout because of something she said.

When she said “whatever,” I happened to be in the room.

I guess I can still laugh about it because she is only turning 3 & not 13.

Kaitlyn and I were looking at a book in the bathroom while she was on the potty. The book had some famous cartoon characters in the back cover. I was asking K who each character was (in Chinese).

Mel: Who’s this? (Ni個係邊個呀？／Ni gaw hai been gaw ah?)
Kaitlyn: A witch (巫婆). (pauses for 5 seconds) You are like the witch, mommy. (妳好似個「witch」噤樣呀。／Nay ho chi gaw ‘witch’ gum yeung ah Mommy.)

That was random. I guess that’s what she thinks of me. =/

原句：「爺爺，要唔要腳腳係ni度lay埋呀？」
翻譯：「爺爺，要不要我用毯子蓋著你的腳呵？」

Kaitlyn: 媽咪，要唔要食糖糖呀？
Melanie: 你係度做甚麼？
Kaitlyn: Kaitlyn胃食囉！

Kaitlyn saw a Uniqua doll on display inside a store. She wanted to tell us that she has one, too, so she exclaimed, “Daddy, 我有「左」啦！”

What she said: “Daddy, I have already!”
What she said means: “Daddy, I’m pregnant!”

Kaitlyn pooped in her diaper, so Melanie took her to the bathroom. Once the diaper came off & she saw the poop, she pointed at it, smiled at Mel and said to her, “Mommy, chick-o-cheep!”
