Polka Dot Pizza

It was Friday night, we had a house full of groceries that we couldn't eat (because they're all for the beach), so we decided to just order pizza. Olivia was a little cranky and super hungry! Drew opened his laptop to order the pizza online, and Livy had a meltdown! She didn't understand that we were in the process of getting the pizza ordered. She was so hungry! So I tried to explain it to her...

"Livy, Daddy is gonna order it on his computer, the restaurant is gonna cook it, and then they'll bring it to us. Ok?"

(Tears still rolling down her face) "Oh ok. Let me just put my cries on you..."

So then she starts rubbing her face in my chest, wiping her "cries" all over my shirt.

"What kind of pizza do you want?"

"I just want a really big polka dot pizza!"

...that would be pepperoni. 

And the girl ate 4 pieces of pizza! Now granted, it was Dominoes thin crust pizza which isn't very big... But still, that's a lot for her! 

Lean On Me

"Aww, Mama, you're tired?"

"Yea, a little bit."

"You can lay your head on my shoulder if you want to..."

(Can't say no to that! So I curled up with her...)

"See, I told ya you could! Ohh Mama, you're my favorite Megan!"

She is just so sweet and compassionate!

Dad, Where Are You?

The other night we were all laying in bed together watching a little college baseball. Livy is so used to watching her daddy play softball that she just automatically assumed he should've been out there on the field too...

"Dad, where are you?"

"What do you mean?"

"Where are you?"

"On the TV? I'm not on there baby. I'm laying right here beside you."

"Where are you on there?"

"I didn't play college baseball. I wish I did though..."  

"Well you can play football a big one tonight at baseball."

"I can?"

"Yea. Last night."

I love how she always knows what she's trying to say, but it just doesn't quite make sense to us!

 

Daddy

Livy Lou loves her daddy. All morning she kept saying,

"I just love my daddy. I want to see him. I just want my daddy."

"Daddy's at work, baby."

"But I love him!"

"You'll see him tonight, OK?"

"But I just want my daddy."

How sweet and pitiful is that??

Then during breakfast she actually broke down and cried because she missed him. So, like any good mom would do, I tried to comfort her and tell her everything was OK I snapped a picture...

Just kidding! OK, I did take her picture, but I held her through the rest of breakfast and even bought her a toy!
 

Drew went fishing in a tournament tonight. He had just messaged me to say he was on his way home when Livy came in the living room and said,

"I need to get my daddy back so he can kiss my cheek cause my cheek hurts!"

"Daddy's on his way home."

"He is?? That'll be so fun!"

She does have the best daddy. 

 

 

Redneck Pot Club

We spent Memorial day on the lake with friends. It was the first time we've been on the water all year, and let me just say...

 

It. Was. Freezing.

 

But that didn't stop us from getting in! Livy had fun swimming, but she really loved riding in the tube. The girl has no fear! She likes to stand up, sway from side to side, lean over the edge, lick the water off her hands, and even jump up and down while we're gliding across the water. She loves it, and I love that she loves it! We'll have her knee boarding by the end of the summer! ;)

 

 

This is what we like to call the "Redneck Pot Club"

This one seriously makes me giggle!

Fingernail Polish & Lawn Mowers

Olivia wanted me to paint her fingernails tonight, so I painted them pink just like she requested. Then she said,
"I need to dry 'em with the lawn mower."

"You mean the blow dryer?"

"Yea, the dry blower."

 

Then a little later, she was sitting with me in the recliner and said,

"Somenayou (someday you) will get little like a baby and I will rock you, and I will call you Baby Mama, and I will say don't cry Baby Mama!"
 

She is always coming up with "somenayou" situations... Her most common one is someday I'll get little and fit under the table to play with her. Haha!
 

Best Friends

Yesterday, Livy told me,

"Mama, you're my bessssst friend! Just like Gaspard and Lisa!"

I just love to hear her say that!
