Liza’s Dictionary: Carryou

Since people seem to have a hard time understanding my vernacular, I’ve decided to add a new feature to my blog, word definitions, to help you along.

carryou (ker-ree-yoo) noun?

The act of having Mommy or Daddy transfer me from one location to another in their arms.

as in, “I want carryou.”

I learned it from Mommy and Daddy saying, “Do you want me to carry you?”

I seem to get less carryou since Jake was born.

Mother’s Day 2009

Happy Mother’s Day, Momma!

Daddy helped me make breakfast in bed for Momma today.  Jake played his part in the surprise by keeping her in bed late while Daddy and I cooked downstairs in the kitchen.  We made pancakes and eggs and coffee and juice.  And a card.

Later, Joycee and Papa Gene came over and we all went to the arboretum and walked around.  Papa Gene said I could spend the night in a tree if I wanted, but I preferred to go get something to eat.  So we went for Thai food where I had a some of Joycee’s tofu salad.  I stayed up real late again!

Frooooggy!

My favorite book to read lately is “Froggy Gets Dressed” by Jonathan London.  I picked out this book at the library.  It’s about a young frog who wants to go out and play in the snow but keeps getting reminded by his mama to put on more warm clothes.  I help Momma read it by playing the part of Froggy’s mama and calling “Frooooooggy” at the appropriate times.  Sometimes I also like to answer for Froggy by replying, “What?”.
