Daddy Time Out

Pepper has never seen The Princess and The Frog (and I'm ok if that doesn't happen for a long time... can you say CREEPY??), but she has a Tiana doll and she loves it.  Corban was holding it the other day, and suddenly remembered that he used to take heads off of his sisters' barbies.  He wanted to make sure they still make the same caliber of Barbie today, and we consequently found out that given enough pressure, Barbies can still be easily decapitated.  And just the same as it was 20 years ago, they are never quite the same after said decapitation.

Today....

P:  uh oh mommy, i broke it.

Me:  no, daddy broke tiana, pepper.

P: oh, daddy broke it?

Me: yeah.

P:  oh.  why?

Me:  I don't know why daddy broke tiana's head.

P:  oh. Cause, um, daddy time out?

Me: yeah, daddy time out.

P:  oh.  why?

Me:  I don't know, pepper.  Did you break it, Pepper?

P:  No, daddy break it.  Member?

Me:  Why did daddy break it?

P:  Cause daddy go time out. Cause mommy say, "NO!"

Me:  Is daddy going to fix Tiana?

P: No.

Me:  Why not?

P:  Cause daddy sad.

Me: Why is daddy sad?

P:  Cause daddy want to fix it.  Cause Tiana got a owie on it.

 etc etc etc etc

Life is very different (AWSOME-ER) since Pepper started talking and thinking [somewhat] logically.  She learned the word WHY a couple weeks ago and it has made for some interesting discussions in our home.  This girl makes me laugh every single day!

I regularly find anywhere from 2 to 40 pictures on my phone of random inanimate objects...  Thank you Pepper:)
