Pippa says

While potty training:
P: I need some paper toilet! (said often and meaning toilet paper)


This one makes me feel like we're doing something right. Pippa had been up in the night crying. This was at breakfast the next morning.

T: Do you feel better this morning?
P: Yeah, the Holy Ghost is here. In my heart.
T: Oh, did you say a prayer?
P: No, you said a prayer. And Heavenly Father sent the Holy Ghost to help me feel better.


Upon putting a basket on her head:
P: I want to show dad-dad my party hat!

This is an old one from our March trip to Utah. I was singing "Brown Eyed Girl" by Van Morrison.
S: Do you remember when we used to sing sha la la la la la la la la la la ti da...
P: What's ti-da mean?
S: ... (can't think of an explanation at all)


One of Pippa's favorite songs these days is "Say Geronimo." While she was alone in the playroom I heard her singing "Happy birthday to Geronimo"


I was singing the song "Dankeschön" by Wayne Newton
S: Dankeschön, baby dankeschön...
P: Nooooo. Not baby dankeschön. I a girl dankeschön!


Pippa telling Grandma about our trip to the beach.
P: We chased the ocean!

T asked Pippa to get the drill that was on the floor.
T: Can you hand it to me?
P: You get it.
T: I can't reach it. It's too far away.
P: Try walking. Like this. (gives a demonstration)


Not a quote, just a tidbit. In April we were eating biscuits for dinner.  Pippa thought they were cookies.  She kept asking for more and getting more. She was totally giddy like she was getting away with something.  Adorable!
