Just Get Lost

Eliana and I went to pick Skyler up from school today. On the way home I tell her that she has to take a nap when we get there. She says, "Oh no! We're lost, we can't go home now." I ask her if she thinks she is going to get out of a nap if we're lost. "Yes."
I do get lost easily but obviously not easily enough for her.

Pirates don't get time outs

I'm beginning to wonder who the parent is here. I went to give Eliana a time out and she informs me that she is a pirate and pirates don't get time outs. I told her that may be true for big pirates but little pirates can still have time outs. She tells me, "I'm a big pirate then."

I guess I lost this one.

OH MY

Eliana woke up yesterday and I hear her on the baby monitor say, "It's light outside, time to get up. That's so silly." She just cracks me up, everyday she cracks me up. I just wish she would stop growing up so fast.Skyler on the other hand, oh my heavens. I found out yesterday that he has been putting his gym clothes over top his street clothes so he doesn't have to change. I was dumbfounded. I don't know how he even manages to get a pair of sweatpants over a pair of jeans. And how does he move once he does? I told him he couldn't do that anymore and he asked me why. The worst part is I couldn't come up with an answer. Why can't you put your sweatpants over your jeans? Because it's crazy! Does that count as a viable answer?
