Wee Wee Weekend

Hallelujah
Praise Sweet Little Baby Jebbus
The weekend is here!
Holla.


I am hitting the road in a few to travel 81 miles to my sisters house where I will be smothered with luvin' by my adorable nieces. Ok, maybe not. But I did bring presents because I am not above bribing them for love.


I called my sis today and asked her to put Gi (3 y.o) niece on the phone:


Sister: Gi, do you want to talk to Aunt Sis (that's what they call me)

Gi: No

Sister: Do you want to talk to Cinderella?
Gi: Yes (She runs and grabs the phone)

Gi: Hi Cinderella
Me: Well Helloooo Dear Gianna (in a really creepy princess voice)
Gi: How is Disneyland?
Me: It is lovely this time of year. You should come visit me at my castle.
Gi: What is the name of your prince? (Where the hell does she get this stuff?)
Me: His name is Prince Charming.
Gi: Ok bye. I love you Cinderella.


Hey, I'll take what I can get. But I think now she is expecting Cinderella to come over this afternoon instead of me. Anyone have a blue ball gown and blond wig I can borrow?

    Not to worry. You will easily convince her with your beauty queen looks. And your jazz hands, of course. Can't forget the jazz hands.

    Have a great weekend!

    LOL!

    That was a brilliant tactic! I'll have to try that with my son. "Did you want to talk to Megatron?"

    Good luck tomorrow, Cindy.

    ROFLMAO! That's some smart thinking! I'm going to have to use this tactic when my parents call. The kids always REFUSE to talk to them :P

    LOL

    That was genius on your sister's part. Why have I never thought of that. Of course if it was to lure Kid we'd have to say it was some religious figure or something ;)

    Kids can be soooo adorable. My nieces call my sister-in-law aunt candy (b/c she always brings them candy)...it's pretty cute!

    Little kids are too cute. You should be able to find something cheap at Walmart. Assuming you're 3ft tall.

    Once you're there she'll totally forget about the Cinderella. YOU'LL be the one showering her with love and affection, afterall. 3 year olds just eat up all the attention they can get!

    The "talk to Cinderella" idea is great ... my kids were always pretty shy about talking to relatives on the phone. But they would have talked to, say, a Pokemon.

    Hope you have a great weekend, Auntie!

    Ha! Love it!

    I'll try Batman the next time I want to talk to my nephew... I don't know if I'll be able to pull that one off convincingly. =)

    Hope your visit was lovely!

    Haha! You got trumped by Cinderella. Was she disappointed when you showed up? How did the bribes go over?
