Conversations with Nory.

A post I'll try to do more often.  So I can remember these funny moments forever and ever.

Upon arriving home from the salon (hair freshly cut with some curls)....

Me:  Hi Honey!!!!!

Nory:  (excitedly) MOMMY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!  (pause, look of confusion) Mommy.  Your hair. (longer pause, look of disgust)  Your hair.  Me no like it.  Me no like it, Mama.

And when asked if she liked my hair on day two (washed and straight)?  SAME RESPONSE.  OY!

While talking to Phil on the phone....

Phil:  What are you and Mommy doing right now? 

Nory:  Pizza and Minnie Mouse.

Phil:  That's fun!  You're eating pizza and watching Minnie Mouse?

Nory:  Ya!

Lindsay:  (laughing) That's a lie.  She just had cereal and we're building a tower!

While choosing a dinosaur video on YouTube (she's becoming obsessed)....

Me:  Oh!  This one looks good!  (continues to put on Land Before Time clip)

Nory:  No....not this one.  This one not good, Mama.

Me:  Okay.....let's try this one... (puts on Barney)

Nory:  Not good, Mama.  Not this one.

Me:  Well then, what about this one?  (puts on a nice dinosaur clip from Jurassic Park...you know, where they first arrive at park and see a giant Little Foot)

Nory:  Not this one, Mama.

Me:  We're running out of options here, Kiddo.  Hmmm..... (puts on 'Best of Discovery Channel Dinosaurs')

Nory:  YA!  (squeals) THIS ONE!  THIS ONE GOOD MAMA!!!!!!!!

Keep in mind the video opened with two 'real-life' raptors attacking each other.  Sigh.  Sometimes I don't know how this child belongs to me.  Isn't Little Foot too adorable to resist?!

While painting the other day.....

Me:  What do you want to paint with today, Nory?

Nory:  (thinking) Ummm....................hair.

Me:  (laughs) I don't think painting with our hair is a very good idea, darling!

Nory:  (frustrated) No....hair ones, Mommy!  (continues to go to craft shelf and retrieve her mini paint brushes)

Me:  Ohhh!!!!!!!!  THE PAINT BRUSHES!!!!  They do have hair!  Great idea, Hun!

The ones with hair = paint brushes.  CHECK, CHECK. CHECK!  Not a bad description in retrospect ;)
