  Zoe’s Daily Funny:
  So Zoe’s all about potty training. It is taking pretty long though I have to say. She has A LOT of accidents. I mean she’s so fast with everything else that we’re actually surprised she hasn’t caught onto this by now. I don’t know but we’ll keep trying. Anyhoots sometimes when I pee I’ll leave the bathroom door open a crack just in case she needs me. Sometimes she’ll come in, put her hands on my knees, try to peek between my legs and say…
  
  Zoe: Mommy are you peeing?
  Me: Yes. Can I have some space?
  Zoe: (listening) I hear it! Good job mommy! Good girl!
  
  This one time we had all just woken up and I was brushing my teeth in front of the bathroom mirror. Then the hubs comes in to use the toilet. He gets in that Man-At-The-Toilet stance. You know, the one hand on your wee-wee other hand on the wall stance? Zoe comes in as he’s peeing and she goes stands next to him. I watch her staring at the stream of urine. From where it starts to where it hits the water in toilet bowl. Then I hear her say…
  
  Zoe: Ahbah you peeing?
  C: Yes.
  Zoe: Good job ahbah! You’re a good boy!
  
  I don’t mind having a cheerleader when I pee but honestly she’s really vocal about things she don’t need to be vocal about. Like this one time we were using a bathroom at Macy’s and I asked if I could go before her and she said “Sure!” So as I was going she exclaims “MOMMY! I LOVE YOUR PINK PANTIES! Say ‘thank you Zoe!’” I heard someone laugh a few stalls over. THANKS FOR NUTHIN ZOE HOW BOUT THAT?!

  Last night Zoe’s dad and I were having this, I guess we can call it a contest. He would fake cry and say something like “Zoe mommy was mean to me.” Just to see how she would react and at the same time I’d start to bawl and say “ZOE AHPAH YELLED AT ME!! I’M SOOOOO SAD!” and then I’d fake cry.
  
  I won. Girl sent his ass to time out. Then she’d come over to me and say in this consoling voice “Mommy I put him in time out ok? Don’t cry. There there.” And I would just fake sob on her shoulders while watching her father flick me the bird in the time out chair and then I’d say in my fake crying voice “Zoe it was sooo horrible. He was so mean to me and I just can’t…I can’t (sob) i’m so sad I can’t talk.” So then she’d run back to him and yell stuff like “DON’T YELL AT MY MOMMY OK! BE NICE!! TIME OUT TWO MINUTES OKAY!!!!!” and then she’d run back and console me as I fake cried some more on her shoulders while giving her father this huge victory smile.
  
  Mommy always wins. C’mon hun. You should know better.

  Man I think I just gave you 2 daily funnies by mistake. Haha well I saved the best for last. At the end of this entry watch the video.

  Video: Singing Contest
  Zoe and I were having a singing contest just for fun where we would take turns singing to her dad and she would interupt my songs and I’d interupt hers and we’d start bickering. Finally I decided maybe we should get our contest on video. If you notice she bows in the beginning. I taught her that. hee hee… She’s really cute in this. Enjoy! Oh and our mics are sidewalk chalk. It’s called improvising people!
