Cute Kyri Girl

This girl of ours has been saying some pretty funny things that we don't want to forget. Here's a few:

Many months ago (before October since that's when we started listening to Christmas music) we would listen to ABBA. Kyri and I loved dancing to their music and I would always sing real loud. A crowd favorite (ok, a Kyri favorite) was Mamma Mia. We would listen to it over and over. Well, just a couple weeks ago Kyri was in the tub and we hear, "Mamma Mia! Come in here Mamma Mia!" Yes, she was referring to her mother. She will still pull this one out on occasion. Silly girl!

A few days ago I heard the strangest thing. It was my first name by my very own 2 year old! Kyri called me Mauri for a good couple days! Every time she did I would say, "What are you supposed to call me?" Well, soon she would start talking to me and it would go something like this, "This tastes riry dood, Mauri.....(pause).....this tastes dood, Mamma!" So, it was like it was just natural for her to call me Mauri! So strange. But I think we nipped this one in the bud. Hopefully.

Last night we were eating dinner and Kyri had black practically from ear to ear from the black beans. It was kind of cute. Then Gary took a bite and intentionally left some on the side of his mouth. Kyri kept tilting her head, looking at him. After a good minute of this she said, "Daddy, you look like a tiger!!"

And her new favorite thing to tell her brother, "Don't scream in the house!!" We often remind her that we only scream outside.

Isn't she just the funnest little girl you've ever met? I love spending every day with her! What a gal!
