Recently, I came across a note in my phone where I would write down funny and interesting things Lexi would say when she was little. I had such a laugh reading through them that I decided to post them here even though these are from 2 years ago. Hopefully some of you are on baby #2 or #3 and can relate to these. Nowadays I don’t get too many innocent funny comments. They are more like “When did you become so wise or such a smart ass” type of remarks coming from Lexi.
One comes to mind, actually… We were walking off the plane in Bahamas a few weeks ago and Lexi exclaimed about how she can’t wait to get into a taxi ( she loves that part of traveling for some reason). I started telling her that first we have to get through immigration, during which she cut me off with:
“I know I know, mommy! Do you think this is my first time traveling with you? We have to go through customs, then get baggage, bla bla bla…”
She literally said “bla bla bla”. Yeah so comments are quite different these days…
So here is to being a toddler and innocent 🙂 And to comments mostly revolving around breastfeeding 🙂
(inserting unrelated photos of Lexi at that age for visual interest)

Looking for boobie in the blankets. Finally uncovered it. Lexi: “There are you mister boobie!”
Lexi: “Where’ve been? Never get out of here! Close the door and be inside.” – With a sleepy voice when she woke up without me.

Lexi: “We will buy a new one if this one breaks.”
Me: “No we can’t just buy things when they break. We need money to buy things.”
Lexi: “Then buy money to buy an umbrella.”
Me: “You can’t buy money. You have to work to get money. And you don’t let us work much, do you? jokingly referring to her always wanting to play when we try to work.”
Lexi: “Ok then you’re gonna work to make money so that you can buy Lexi a little computer, so that I could work and make money to buy me a new umbrella.”
Me commenting on her moves: “Crazy Lexi!”
Lexi: “Crazy freaking mommy!”

Lexi: “I cannnnt. I keep going at the wrong way: THE POOPIE.” (Referring to the proper way of wiping front to back)
Lexi: “And now I found the boobie. My treasure I’ve been looking for.”
I’m explaining about infinity. “It’s something goes and doesn’t stop. It occurs in math, it’s not a physical thing.”
Lexi: “But why? -Well because there are some things that go on and and on and they never stop and we call it infinity.” Â She looks like she is processing. “But when does it stop?
Me: “It doesn’t. That’s why it’s infinity.”
Lexi: “Oh I know. It stops when it hits red light!!!!”
