Grumpy Mommy?

Gabi and I were playing outside today and I told her it was time to go in for lunch. Gabi said "mommy, I'm not hungry. I don't want to eat now". So I explained to her that it was approaching her nap time so if she's not hungry now, then she'll have to wait until after nap. I explained to her that she will not be allowed to eat two minutes before nap time. Gabi always says "mommy, I'm hungry, or mommy, I'm thirsty", when I tell her it is nap time. She does this of course to stay up longer and/or get out of taking a nap.

So, after I explained (again) that she can't eat two minutes before nap, she gives me an earful. Gabi tells me, "mommy, you sure are grumpy today. You sound very grumpy". Hmmm... I wasn't sure how to react to this statement. I laughed a bit and then told her that I was just explaining the rules to her. I didn't get much sleep last night so maybe she's right. Maybe Gabi needs to put me down for a nap.

Chef Gabriela

Gabi received this great chef's outfit and a wooden pizza set for her birthday. She loves to dress up in it and deliver pizza to us. Jon really enjoys this but he wishes the pizza was real and not wooden.

Gabi tells us to call her Chef Gabi when she's wearing this outfit.

Soccer player #3

Gabi loves to play soccer with her daddy. She tells her daddy to put on his #10 jersey and she wears her jersey. She puts on her pink soccer shoes that Uncle Shaun gave her. Then daddy and Gabi growl at each other and run around the house. When she is wearing this jersey, she likes to be called Soccer player #3. She got this shirt for Christmas and I've only been able to wash it one time.
