Annie Quotes

Annabelle: "Bunnies chewt!"

Dad: "Annie, are you cute?"

Annabelle: "No! Bunnies chewt!"

Annie listing her favorite things during a prayer:

Park, mimming pool, Daddy tickle, go outside....

Dad: "Annie, did you like Prince of Egypt?"

*Long pause*

Annie with a very serious face: "No."

Dad: "Annie, what day of the week is it?"

Annie: "Uh, four?" *Holds up five fingers*

Annie has the ultimate sweet tooth. She is always on the watch for an opportunity to get a treat. One angle she takes is that we told her that if she ever pees or poops in her little potty, she can get a treat. She will go get the potty out of the closet, strip herself naked, and sit on the potty for a few seconds before leaping up and saying "get tweet?" with a huge smile on her face. We check it and tell her, "Annie look, it is empty. You have to put poopies or peepies in the potty." To this she always gets the hugest scowl and yells "I DIIIIIIIIIIIIIID!"

She also overheard me bribing Elliot to put the folding chairs away after volleyball since the kids always make chair forts. Now as soon as she notices people starting to leave she comes up to me and says "Put away chairs, get tweet?"

Also, there's the "Annie Grimace." Ever since Annie was a child, she has struggled with expressing her excitement. When she was a tiny baby, she would express her excitement by kicking her legs. Most babies do this, but Annie's were much more vigorous. She would kick one leg at a time, causing her whole body to jerk back and forth. It was cute. Now that she's older, we get the Annie Grimace. It's basically this face but with much more intensity:

I AM SO EXCITED ABOUT LIFE

She often whips it out when she's excited to see Daddy when he gets home. Or if she sees a baby. Or if we play hide and go seek. Or if she gets to play with water. You get the picture.

We love our little Annie!
