The Negotiator (and Some Christmas Pictures)

Anna Zane is not yet two years old and already she's mastered negotiating at bed time. Tonight, after the story and while we rocked (and I sing my best rendition of "Twinkle Twinkle"), she asked for:

Water
Milk
Juice
When that didn't work, she decided being more vague was a better approach: A drink

No liquid for her since she just had water before story.

So, she decides to pull for the heartstrings.

Daddy hug. Daddy kiss. 

She asked five times.

Then she hugged and kissed me twice.

Finally, she asked for "lipstick," a.k.a. chap stick.

However, she laid down without a hitch. Ah, she's the joy of my heart.

And to make this the most random blog posting ever . . . enjoy some pictures from Christmas. :-)







Christmas morning, waiting in our bedroom while Daddy went to check to see if Santa had left and to set up the camera.



 Santa brought Anna a KITCHEN! When she saw it, she bypassed all the wrapped gifts. It took us nearly 30 minutes to get her to agree to open any gifts because she only wanted to play kitchen. Santa score!
