Tiny Talk Tuesday

Tiny Talk Tuesday helps parents focus on one of the many joys of parenting - the funny things that our little ones (and sometimes big ones) have to say.

Join in the fun and record the Tiny Talk overheard in your house! Publish a post on your blog and link us to the laughs. Then be sure to link to the blog carnival on this post so more bloggers can join in the fun.

The guidelines can be found here if you need them.

After much debate about how to address our newest member on the blog, we have decided to use his MIDDLE initial, C. We debated many of your suggestions (baby D, D2, etc) but decided to use C so everyone has their own letter.

So in this Tiny Talk, our littlest member (3 days old) is C!

While watching our girls as we were at the hospital, my father was talking to them about the day lilies they saw. He explained that they only last one day. Their theological conversation that followed made him laugh as they tried to "out do" each other with their thoughts.

T (age 4): God made the Day Lilies.
K (age 6): God made everything.
T: He didn't make the houses.
K: He had to make the first one to show us how!

The girls came with Daddy to pick me up at the hospital. He asked them if they wanted to go get baby C (2 days old) and they did! After we got C all packed up in his car seat, T (age 4) looks at me and asks, "Will you miss him mom?"

It began apparent that they were thrilled to be taking the baby home and were quite content to go ahead and leave me there.

T: How old is the baby?
Grandmom: 10 hours old.
T: Wow. That tree is older than the baby.

According to T (age 4), "When you look old, then you die."

The girls wanted to hold the baby non-stop at the hospital. I explained that he was going to come home with us and we could hold him every day. But T (age 4) reminded us that we couldn't do that forever, "because one day he will die".

D (age 2): The baby came out of mommy's belly. I love the baby.

The girls were watching C while I was upstairs. They were telling me in a walkie-talkie EVERYTHING he did.

He opened his mouth mom!

He is yawning.

He made a noise.

I think he is saying something.

K (age 6) watched C (2 days) in his bassinett while I showered. She rocked and stared at him the entire time. When I got out of the shower, she explained that "I was going to leave, but when I told him, he shook so I think he is scared. He wants me to stay here."
