My little mini-me

So lately I have been noticing how much amber sounds like me at times. Now I know some of this is to be expected since she hears me yapping at her all the time but lately I have been finding it hilarious. Some of the things she says are

Chop Chop-Mostly to my parents when they dont move fast enough to suit her
Sorry Darlin-to the dog when she doesnt want to play with her
Dang it or Holy Shnikes-when she drops something. The 2nd one is something I made up trying to avoid saying something worse.

And the cutest one of all is:

COOL, Thats Awesome: That is just so me, I will admit it.

It is just funny listening to the things that come out of thier mouths. It makes me be extra extra careful of what I say around her

Rolling eyes

Lately my daughters has a new habit. Whenever I make her give me a kiss whether it is goodnight, goodbye or just because she has started rolling her eyes. I will admit she looks so cute doing it and she always has this silly little grin on her face but I am afraid that the days where she is fine with me kissing her in public may be coming to a slow end. I know it embarrasses her a bit when I kiss her in front of her friends at school so i try not to, but didnt expect it to happen this quick. My baby is growing up on me and there is nothing I can do the stop it. I miss the days where she would just sit on my lap or let me hold her just because. Now I have to practically force her to give me a hug and kiss goodbye when she is leaving me for the weekend or a couple days. Its just kind of depressing : (

Rocks in a bag

You know the saying it feels like you are carrying rocks in your bag? Well today I found out it is true. My darling little girl who happens to love rocks has decided to weigh her bag down with a ton of them. I have been noticing lately that when I carry amber's backpack for her that it weighs a ton. Plus she had so much crap in there that it was hard to get her binder in at times. So she came home from her dad's this evening and I decided to go through it. She had about 5 lbs or so of rocks in one of the pockets. I cant believe the kid has been lugging that around for so long. I guess a couple weeks ago she picked them all up at her grandma's. Now I am trying to figure out what she was thinking and why she would carry that around for so long. I guess I need to check her bag more often
