also just have to clear up.. she tells ayja to lick her own feet.. although she knows that usually that lead on to ayja turning into a complete nutter and trying to go round licking everyone's feet, arms, face.. whatever she can get to.. she knows how to make ayja turn into a really weird child.]]> Wed, 02 May 2007 12:52:34 +0000 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=7174&PID=139133&title=people-with-four-year-olds#139133 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=7174&PID=139130&title=people-with-four-year-olds#139130 Author: mum2paris

We are constantly having to remind Paris that WE are the parents, and she does not need to tell ayja off.. which she does regularly.. for really strict things.. it's crazy. again i repeat - BOSSY.]]> Wed, 02 May 2007 12:48:54 +0000 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=7174&PID=139130&title=people-with-four-year-olds#139130 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=7174&PID=139120&title=people-with-four-year-olds#139120 Author: busymum

Haha at licking her feet!!!!

Hannah has taken it on herself to teach Briona manners. So we give Briona a drink and Hannah's right there saying "say thanks Mum" to Bria. Which Briona then does. Or they get in a tussle over a toy and Hannah says "you have to say please" "Please" "there you go. Now say thank you" "Thank you". Oh my goodness! It's relentless! But the crazy thing is that Briona doesn't really mind it and actually has amazingly good manners

I've learnt that Hannah actually asks "why" automatically when she's tired and she doesn't always even expect an answer (maybe that's cause when it gets too much for me I ignore her ). Oh she's hilarious!]]> Wed, 02 May 2007 12:35:49 +0000 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=7174&PID=139120&title=people-with-four-year-olds#139120 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=7174&PID=138890&title=people-with-four-year-olds#138890 Author: mum2paris

awww, Hannah? NOOOO she wouldn't be like that. lol, seriously she's too sweet. Now paris.. you can just look at her and tell that shes the bossy domineering type. the quiet one that is at the heart of every sneaky operation by miss ayja. lol She even finds it funny to tell ayja to lick her feet.. cos she' knows ayja will do it. seriously.

And yes.. Paris is interesting she asks so many questions then just spews all the info back out again when you least expect it. She was intruiged all day yesterday about what would baby do once it was out (had to remind her baby was tiny, and wasn't alive any more), where was it going to go, would i cry when i had the operation, would i be asleep, blah blah blah blah blah.
She did the same with my older sis when she stayed.. neither of us smoke.. all of my sisters do.. we don't usually see them too often and if my sis from feilding visits she usually does when Paris is at daycare or in bed.. anyway.. when my sis from hamy stayed.. boy she's turned into a chain smoker.. every 10 mins was outside having a smoke.

Paris's converstations turned to "why does she smoke?" "why do people smoke?" "what happens to you if you smoke?" "smoking gives you a sore heart and lungs aye mum?" "I have a sore heart aye mum - but it's not cos of smoking.. i was born that way.. baileys got a bad heart too.. is it cos aunty carrie smoked when he was in her tummy?" "aunty mel and chrissy smell yucky when they smoke" "if you smoke and you go to the doctors, they won't do anything for you aye mum.. but when i get a cough, they give me medicine.. cos i don't smoke" even when we are in the car now it's "look mum, that ladies got a smoke.." (like she's telling onthem for doing something really seriously WRONG!!)

I just wish the fascination with smoking would go away.. although i know it will turn to something else. god knows what.

She talks too much - probably gets that from me i guess, lol ]]> Tue, 01 May 2007 23:27:26 +0000 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=7174&PID=138890&title=people-with-four-year-olds#138890 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=7174&PID=138835&title=people-with-four-year-olds#138835 Author: busymum

I take my hat off to you!

I had my five under five today, and the four year was the worst!!! well, not really, just I'm used to the two year old and one year old age. the four year old is a whole new ball game., i was exhausted just from the questions

"what are you doing"
"why"
"who's that?>"
"what are they doing"
"why don't you know"

Drove me nuts!!!]]> Tue, 01 May 2007 20:27:12 +0000 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=7174&PID=138778&title=people-with-four-year-olds#138778
