Things My Two Year Old Says February 25, 2012

Hassan has a great love for food. It’s been that way since he was in the womb. Hence why I gained 50 lbs when pregnant with him. Now that he’s two, he’s established the food that he really loves and those that he doesn’t. Recently he asked his dad if he can have some chocolate. Hassan doesn’t just eat chocolate, he eats dark chocolate from Lindt or some pricier brand. He doesn’t do Hershey’s. But on this occasion, he had eaten one too many chocolate for the day. So his dad suggested that he go eat some strawberries or grapes (other food he also loves). Hassan reluctantly agreed. So as I walked him downstairs and we nearly reached the bottom, he looks up at me with his big brown eyes and softly whispers, “Mommy, I can’t wait till Halloween. I can get all the candies I want.” My reaction was “Halloween is a very long time from now and you really don’t need any more candy.”

Trust me, he’s always jumping up and down without candy. Can you imagine him with candy? Oh dear…

Things My Two Year Old Says February 17, 2012

Since my two year old, Hassan, is a great source of entertainment, I have decided to start blogging about the things he says. I don’t know where he gets his humor from ( I suspect his father), but the things that comes out of his mouth some times (most times) leaves me speechless. So here is to the first post for things my two year old says.

As I lay in bed in and out of consciousness (I am pregnant with my second and not just a lazy mother), the room got too quiet especially with a two year old. I gathered up all the energy I had left (trust me, there’s not much of that these days) and asked “Hassan, what are you doing?” He replies, “I’m exercising by moving my hands around.”

My thought “Lord Jesus, if you’re calling that exercising, what do you call the other movements you do?”
