ScrumpyDaddy

We had a wake up alarm at 6 am today, March 29th, 2009. Abby came into our room and said to me, “Mommy there’s a firetruck in my room.” At first I thought she just had a dream or was playing pretend. Abby then got in bed with us and there was a flash outside again. Again, Abby said, “A firetruck!”

That is when I was awake enough to figure out what she was talking about. There was a thunder and lightning storm going on outside. When she saw the lightning flash she thought it was a firetruck’s lights. We explained to her that it wasn’t a firetruck, but lightning outside.

Ah, the joy of a child’s reasoning.

The other day Abby was talking about her new baby brother who is in Mommy’s tummy. Whenever you ask her where her baby brother is she says, “My baby brother in Mommy’s tummy.” She loves to give him hugs and kisses on mommy’s belly, but the funniest thing happened the other day. I was sitting on the couch and we were talking about her baby brother. She lifted up my shirt to say he was in my belly. She then said she wanted to see her baby brother and kept trying to look into my belly button to see him. I just had to laugh. It was the cutest thing ever. We then showed her the ultra sound pictures again so she could see her baby brother.

I know she is going to be a great big sister and show her brother all the ways to get in trouble with Mommy and Daddy.
