Toddler Grocery List

This is a list of items Restless Daddy and our 2 1/2 yr. old Restless Daughter made together before going to the store:

Jewelry
Clothes
Tomotoes
Hot Dogs
Ice Cream

it gets better...

Glasses
Couch
Leaves
Minnie (our family dog)
Chalk (for Mommy's lips)
Computer
Exercise
Chair
Bed
Flowers
Squirrel
Chipmunk
Bigger Shirts (for Daddy's tummy)
Crayons
Pasta
Fish
Medicine
Swimming
Dolphin
Raju (our other family dog)
More fish
Backpack
Baby Car
Pizza
Jacket
Birdies
Daddy Socks
Couch for Baby (she calls herself "baby")

The question I pose is: where the hell are we going to put the dolphin?!

I love it! So funny.

Did your daughter lists the chipmunk, squirrel and birdies on behalf of the dogs? Because my dog is always trying to get us to deliver squirrels to her. But I'm like, LOOK, you'll eat your Purina and you'll like it.

I also like chalk for my lips too. Makes it winter all year long...

I love it! So cute. I love their little minds and what they come up with. You have to keep that list forever!!

ck: I know - too funny huh? Maybe the list was more thought out than I thought...but, then again, the dogs have not yet been introduced to that sort of fare. And GREAT slogan "winter all year long" if I decide to market the chalk as a lipstick.

Nicolle: I know, pure entertainment! It is SO cute - I copied the list because she HAD to take it to the store with us of course! It's going into the "scrapbook some day" file (that will probably always remain a file).

That is really cute! Kids are always good for a laugh. And, dads...what is it they're good for again??? :o)

That "swimming" must stand for the swimming pool the dolphin will be staying in! Very cute...

Restless Ink said...

4 Lettre: writing down grocery lists!:-D

Moz: That's right! That's where the dolphin will go!

I love it that Jewelry is first. It should ALWAYS be first. It doesn't have to be gold or diamonds. I like me a cool piece of costume jewelry. But I did swallow hard when I read - bigger shirts for Daddy's tummy. Just confirmed that our kids see things about ourselves that we would be ok with them not noticing....for a very long time.....like when they are 20...

Restless Ink said...

Angel: that's true!

Gini: I know, isn't that too funny?! I was so impressed by her priorities as well! Ahhh, she's a Mommy's girl alright! At least she didn't say for "Mommy's tummy"! again...a Mommy's girl...I know though huh? I'm always waiting for her to point out stuff I'd rather she not notice till she's like 20 and old enough to realize I'm a person too. Then again, does that ever happen?!

I'll take the dolphin off your hands.

Restless Ink said...

Mocha Dad: perfect!

I'm concerned about the dogs + squirrel combo; I think the dolphin can fend for itself.

Restless Ink said...

Stephanie: yes, that could pose a problem...I'll have to have a meeting with the family:-)
