It was kind of funny :) happy birthday! 🎂🎉🎈 </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/is-your-child-sassy-share-something-theyve-said#post-2415510 Sun, 10 Jan 2016 08:40:06 +0000 nana87 2415510@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Today is my birthday and my 21 month old won't let anyone sing to me, she keeps insisting we sing to her :silly: </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/is-your-child-sassy-share-something-theyve-said#post-2415488 Sun, 10 Jan 2016 08:11:45 +0000 bisous 2415488@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>You can be sure that if we're having an intense dinner conversation, DD will say "everybody, stop talking!" Or more recently we are hearing "That was not nice. Say sorry to me!" or "Say sorry to mommy, daddy!"<br /> She is generally so good with please and thank you so these phrases always take us aback. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/is-your-child-sassy-share-something-theyve-said#post-2415476 Sun, 10 Jan 2016 07:29:10 +0000 Applesandbananas 2415476@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>"Be right there!" is a new one and a dead giveaway that he's doing something he shouldn't be! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/is-your-child-sassy-share-something-theyve-said#post-2415475 Sun, 10 Jan 2016 07:28:14 +0000 hilsy85 2415475@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@Truth Bombs: we also hear "that's not a good choice" a lot.<br /> And:<br /> I don't like your attitude.<br /> Those snacks are not my favorites!<br /> You are not my best buddy. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/is-your-child-sassy-share-something-theyve-said#post-2415452 Sun, 10 Jan 2016 05:32:30 +0000 Truth Bombs 2415452@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>When I tell her she needs to do something she doesn't want to do she often tells me "that's a bad choice mommy." Last night she told me "I'm tired of mommy saying my name" DUDE, listen to me the first time and I won't have to say your name twelve times. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/is-your-child-sassy-share-something-theyve-said#post-2415446 Sun, 10 Jan 2016 04:04:40 +0000 Kemma 2415446@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>"Mummy, I love you" three seconds later "can I have a chocolate, please?" </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/is-your-child-sassy-share-something-theyve-said#post-2415445 Sun, 10 Jan 2016 03:45:45 +0000 Charm54 2415445@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>She asks DH to play "Zipa", a game she made up which is basically like hide and seek but the hider calls out Zipa until the seeker finds them. so DH is hiding and he calls out Zipa over and over. C shouts back with all the annoyance and attitude that only a 2.5 can muster up, "No Dad...I'm busy now!!" </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/is-your-child-sassy-share-something-theyve-said#post-2415420 Sun, 10 Jan 2016 00:23:47 +0000 Corduroy 2415420@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Today we went on a hike and I desperately tried to get her to wear warmer clothes. As I wrapped my green scarf around DD she ripped it off and said "Green is NOT my color." DH and I were dying trying to stifle our laughter, especially since green is totally her color.</p> <p>DDs latest defiant phases are<br /> "That's not possible."<br /> "It's not an option."<br /> And when we reiterate that whatever she has to do is an option or the only option she says<br /> "Well, that's not a good option!"<br /> I don't think I'm ready for 3.</p> <p>ETA: we recently kicked her habit of saying "OK, Missy?" to us after asking for things. No, the word you're looking for is 'please' </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/is-your-child-sassy-share-something-theyve-said#post-2415415 Sun, 10 Jan 2016 00:13:52 +0000 lovehoneybee 2415415@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>"You can leave now." (to my FIL who eas trying to lay down for a nap with him).</p> <p>Not so teenager, but we get things like "I am very frustrated with you Mommy, you are not listening to my words" and "I am very upset with you right now!" A LOT! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/is-your-child-sassy-share-something-theyve-said#post-2415413 Sun, 10 Jan 2016 00:12:10 +0000 loveisstrange 2415413@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@MrsScallop: haha. Mine does this too! She seriously loves to sleep in, so when we wake her up on weekdays to go to school she gets all grumpy and gives us the "two more minutes" thing.</p> <p>Today I asked C to come sit with me so I could put her shoes and socks on, instead she went and sat across the room with her gloves and put them on. When I got on her about not listening, she said "I listened to myself"...... </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/is-your-child-sassy-share-something-theyve-said#post-2415407 Sun, 10 Jan 2016 00:03:20 +0000 blackbird 2415407@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Mine meows at me :silly: </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/is-your-child-sassy-share-something-theyve-said#post-2415385 Sat, 09 Jan 2016 23:17:28 +0000 Raindrop 2415385@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Haha I like this theard!!</p> <p>LO just said today - "Stop bothering me! I am trying to do something." </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/is-your-child-sassy-share-something-theyve-said#post-2415340 Sat, 09 Jan 2016 22:25:41 +0000 Smurfette 2415340@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>We were downstairs cleaning out the basement cause we are going to get it finished next month. Right now her summer outside stuff is in there, so since it is concrete floors she was driving around her Cozy Coupe car. She stops and says:Daddy I need $50.<br /> Daddy: Why do you need $50<br /> LO: Cause my car needs gas </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/is-your-child-sassy-share-something-theyve-said#post-2415332 Sat, 09 Jan 2016 22:20:47 +0000 MrsScallop 2415332@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>My 3 year old is dropping her nap but not going to bed earlier, so lately she has been cranky when I wake her up. She looks at me, rolls over, and says "2 more minutes!" or "But I'm sooo tired....". Very much like me as a teenager! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/is-your-child-sassy-share-something-theyve-said#post-2415289 Sat, 09 Jan 2016 21:47:28 +0000 Applesandbananas 2415289@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>LO is way into just saying the opposite. So if we say it's hot, don't touch, he says "No, it's not hot, it's cold!" </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/is-your-child-sassy-share-something-theyve-said#post-2415228 Sat, 09 Jan 2016 20:53:20 +0000 Anagram 2415228@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>We had two lovely gems today. My daughter recently started singing "A tisket a tasket", and my husband started singing it absentmindedly under his breath and LO said, "Stop singing. You don't know the words."</p> <p>And at dinner my husband turned on the tv to check the football playoffs, and LO said it's daddy's turn to watch tv. So I jokingly asked when it's ever mommy's turn to watch tv, and she looked at me and said, "You need to learn to wait your turn". Burn! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/is-your-child-sassy-share-something-theyve-said#post-2414747 Sat, 09 Jan 2016 08:48:53 +0000 Cherrybee 2414747@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>We appear to be living with an early onset threenager! She was very verbal from an early age so we missed the frustrated tantrums stage (thank god) but all of a sudden, at 2.5, she has opinions on everything, always wants to do the opposite of what we ask her to do and the things she comes out with, oh my!! Its hilarious!! </p> <p>Today, we've had: </p> <p>"Elliott is very cross with you, Daddy" (when DH stole a chip from her plate) </p> <p>"I don't want to get dressed. I dont like my clothes. I need new shoes today"</p> <p>and my personal favourite</p> <p>"Turn this song off. I don't like this song. Its rubbish"</p> <p>Then last night, it was time for bed but E was still drinking her milk (slowly!). She kept getting up to run about but then said she hadn't finished her milk when we asked her to come up to bed. DH said "sit down and drink your milk. The next time your feet touch the floor, you're going to bed". So she dangled off the edge of the sofa, feet 3cm off the ground, waving them side to side, singing "not touching the floor daddy". </p> <p>Sassy little madam!! </p> <p>What has your LO come out with recently? </p>
