Oh noodles.

Oh noodles.
"Edee" and "Chicken" are nicknames for my two little rascals. The names originated from how my daughter would pronounce both her own and little brother's name when she first started talking. They've stuck. Chicken may live to regret that someday....

Chicken Conversation

It's in the 6am hour.  Chicken and I are the only ones awake and are eating breakfast.  He's looking up at me over a bowl of Cheerios from the kiddie table.

Chicken:  Doing?
Me:  Eating watermelon.
Chicken:  Doing?
Me:  Eating watermelon.
Chicken: .....Doing?
Me:  Eating watermelon. What are you doing?
Chicken:  Good!!!

He returns to his Cheerios. For a moment.

Chicken:  Edee doing?
Me:  Edee's sleeping.  Shhh.....quiet.
Chicken:  Edee eeepin'?
Me:  Yes.   Is Daddy sleeping too?
Chicken:  Yeah.
Me:  Is Chicken sleeping?
Chicken: Yep.
Me:  No...you are awake!  Are you sleeping?
Chicken:  Nope.
Me:  Is Mommy sleeping?
Chicken:  Nope.
Me:  Is Daddy sleeping
Chicken:  Nope.
Me:  Silly Chicken.

He gives me a humongous smile.  He starts eating again.  I start humming a song.

Chicken:  YOP!!!!  YOP YINGING!!!! YOP!!

He's holding out his little hand, emphasizing the seriousness of the situation.  I remember when Edee started yelling at me to stop singing....I didn't expect this so soon from my Chicken.

:(
