Allie stories

Allie is a source of great hilarity in our house, especially lately. Here are several things she has said and done recently.

  • She no longer calls her mom "Mommy" or "Mom". Now she is "Susanne Arena" (Susanne's middle name is Sarena). I am now Chubs, as everyone else calls me. She also sometimes calls me "Crazy Wolf" (we have no idea from where that came) and even "Crazy Woman".
  • She came into my room while I was doing homework and said "I'm going to do your homework." I wouldn't let her have my pencil, but once I finished, she took it, made a few scribbles, and proclaimed, "I did your homework!" She also told me to "lay down" (she never remembers my corrections of "lie down") on the couch and open my mouth, "like Winkie Wonka." She then proceeded to stick a spoon and a chopstick in my mouth. (She was referring to the scene from the new movie in which Wonka's dad looks into his mouth. She used to say Willie Wonka; we don't know why it's "Winkie" now.)
  • Before "Susanne Arena", she came into my room one time after her mom went to work, and said sadly, "Mommy leave." I repeated, "Mommy left?" She corrected me, "No, leave."
  • She received a poorly-made doll from a neighbor. The first or second day after getting it, its hair fell off and later its eyelashes. Tonight its head fell off. We were talking about how to put it back on, and she said, "Let's leave it off."
These are just some of the funny things she does on a daily basis.

Yaping nearly died laughing, Preston couldn't figure out what was so funny. He looked at his mom, then the computer, then mom, then the computer.

Mark, what a great uncle you are. I think the two of you are wrapped around each other's fingers.

We found out that "You crazy wolf!" comes from the weird movie Hoodwinked. It's still pretty funny that she calls me that!

Does it bother anyone else that Blogger uncapitalizes names?
