Ivy-isms: Yoko Ono
Last night after Ivy's bath she was singing rather loudly....and by loudly I mean my ears were ringing and she cracked a couple of windows on the house.
Ivy: I NEEEEEEED YOUUUU! AND YOU HAVE PINK HAIR!!!!!!! AND I LIKE BUBBLES AT MY BATH!
Me: (As I'm blow drying her hair) That's nice Ivy. I like it when you make up songs.
Ivy: I LIKE KITTY CATS AND HOOOOORRRRSSSEEEESSSS......
Me: Maybe you can sing not so loud.....
Ivy: AND I WISH IT WOULD SNOW, I REALLY REALLY LIKE SNOW! LOTS AND LOTS OF SNOOOOOOOWWWWW!
Me: Wow Ivy, you are really loud, please sing softly.
Ivy: But it's my song about my heart growing 55 sizes!
Me: What???
Ivy: You know....like the Grinch, his heart grew three sizes and then he wasn't grumpy no more!
Me: Oh, ok. So your heart grew 55 sizes? And now you aren't grumpy?
Ivy: I wasn't grumpy Mommy just the Grinch, it's just my song!
Me: Ok. Go to your room so we can get your pajamas on.
Ivy runs off, I clean up the bathroom.
Ivy: THE GRINCH WAS REALLY GRUMPY BECAUSE HE HAD A BABY HEART AND IT GREEEWWWWW BIGGER AND NOW HE NOT GRUUUUMMPPPYYY NO MORE!
Me: (from the bathroom) Ivy seriously! Not so loud!
Ivy: HE STOLED THE PRESENTS BECAUSE HE WAS GRUMPY!
Me: Ivy PLEASE not so loud.
Ivy: But MOMMY it's my BEAUTIFUL SONG!
Me: (Now I'm in her room) Ivy this is the last time I'm telling you to quiet down or you're going straight to bed!
Ivy: You don't like it when I sing?
Me: Ivy....I love it when you sing and when you make up songs. But right now you sound like YOKO ONO and I just can't handle it.
Ivy: Who's Yoko Ono?
Me: Trust me Ivy...it's not a compliment.
