Oh, I know there are a zillionfinity smarter/cuter/verbaler/pottytraineder/longerhaired two year olds out on the big bad internet to read about. I know.
productive + happy morning at the Camp
But we hunted and gathered the essentials: almond milk, detergent (dish AND laundry), fruit snacks, and bananas a la Costco this morning and even though Theo had a tiny meltdown and I came thisclose to accidentally driving away with alllllll the goods still in the cart we survived and I'm going to need to take the rest of the day to decompress and maybe journal in my tangible diary about the sojourn. So I'll just leave you with a few of Julia's one liners that I've managed not to forget ...
Picking up Simon's empty beer bottle, examining it carefully, and furrowing her brow ...
Julia: What kinda wine is dis one?!
After reporting that she needs her (very dirty) diaper changed ...
Grace: (sighhhhhh) okay ....
Julia: is you so fwustated?
(yep)
Getting all up in a crying Theo's face ...
Julia: you havin a tough wake up, Fee-oh?
Getting all up in a crying Sebastian's face ...
Julia: you havin a tough wake up, Basher?
While buying newborn diapers at Target ...
Julia: who doze for?
Grace: Theo
Julia: (clearly disappointed) oh. the stinkpot.
While watching me try (in vain) to wriggle into a pair of jeans:
Julia: Mommy doin her exercises?
(guess so)
After asking me how old I am so many times in a row ...
Julia: How old is you, Mommy?
Grace: you tell me.
Julia: Fixty nine!!!

Oh Julia!!! You are as entertaining as your daddy! :) Love this!

She is SO cute. I hope "Julia Says" becomes a regular Patton feature.
ReplyDeleteAnd I love that she called Theo a stinkpot.
Too funny. :P
ReplyDeleteOh. The stinkpot.
ReplyDeleteLove it!
Love it! There are few things that entertain me more than the thought processes of a toddler.
ReplyDeleteThose are classics.
ReplyDeletelol! we need to have some videos of Julia talking, or better yet, a vlog!! she is too cute!
ReplyDeleteDying. I'm honestly trying to figure out which one is my favorite. I don't know. They're all comedy gold.
ReplyDeletehaha she's hilarious!
ReplyDeleteThis is hilarious. And I love "the stinkpot."
ReplyDeleteo.m.g. love it!!
ReplyDeleteAlways entertaining, Julia, my girl. Leave your mom alone a bit, ok?
ReplyDeleteThere *are* lots of cute toddler quotes out her on the 'net, but none of those cute toddlers are Julia. Of course we want to hear what she says, and you want to remember it. :)
ReplyDeleteI love the "so frustrated" one. It always stops me for a second when I hear my kids use phrases I know they caught from me. My son said, "You gonna have meltdown now? I better go downstairs." after he dumped a load of newly folded laundry on the floor during an already stressful bedroom clean.
ha! stinkpot is my fav.
ReplyDeletepromise i had almost entirely typed out today's copycat of a post before i read yours- great minds. we should have made it a link-up!
Hahaha. Those are too good.
ReplyDeletehahaha so cute, love it!

When my friend's son, Joseph, was a newborn, his older sister (who, then, was around Julia's age) called him "Joe-fuss." I just love children's talk!
ReplyDeletelove the new "what does J say" installment!!!!!!!!!!
ReplyDeleteThis was AWESOME!! Oh my goodness. I laughed so hard. "You so fwustwated"!! And the jeans/exercises??!!! Hahahahahahaha!!!
ReplyDeleteGrace! You are a riot. thanks for keeping it real.
ReplyDeleteBut wait. . .you keep a tangible journal, too?!!! This just blew my mind.
ReplyDeleteLOVE! LOVE! LOVE! I want to be "fixty-nine"! I have a tough wake-up every stinking day of my life! LOL! Love you little girl!
ReplyDeleteCan we please have a frequent rotation of "Julia says"? because this is to die for.
ReplyDeletewine one is a def fave. she is too cute!
She's cute! Congrats for braving Costco alone! You deserve an award, or chocolate.
ReplyDeleteThe Musings of Julia-Child. A riveting new segment of the Camp? Hope so.
ReplyDeletehahahah! i love "stinkpot"..we may or may not use that term of endearment in our house too!
ReplyDeletemy favorite is the "fwustated" though. best.
The nose picking picture is priceless. Pure gold! And I love picturing her with a furrowed brow, asking about the beer bottle
ReplyDeleteLove her! Two year olds are the cutest!
ReplyDeleteThese are as good as Simon says! And tell her she can have wine when she turns fixty nine. Thanks for the chuckles. :)
ReplyDeleteHaha that is soooo cute! I love that she calls Theo stinkpot!
ReplyDelete"Fixty nine"!
ReplyDeleteHaha, so cute!
ReplyDeleteI loved this! She is soooo funny! I hope it becomes a regular too!
ReplyDeleteLove, love, love her!
ReplyDeleteha!! I doubt there's a funnier 2 year old out there. She obviously inherited her parent's wit!!
ReplyDeleteOh I'm dying... too funny. It makes me excited for the day when I have a talker! But I'll stick with the cuddly 5 month old for now. ;)
ReplyDelete(PS - I've been reading for a while but I'm a horrible commenter. Love the blog!)
She is hilarious and so cute! Mine asks me some version of the "U frustrated?" question a lot - guess I must be! LOL ;) Time to reassess when he asks that one!
ReplyDeleteThis is priceless! Thanks for sharing - she is so stinkin cute!
ReplyDeleteI really need my future child to be like her. Like really.
ReplyDeleteSo cute! Love the top photo - I can't tell you how often we see the same move from our little Genevieve, except she is four... much less cute.
ReplyDeleteI keep coming back, specifically to look at the nose picking picture. I can't handle it!
ReplyDeleteThis just made my day. Hillarious. And not to worry, I frequently do jean exercises as well.
ReplyDeletehahaha stinkpot. i'm stealing that one. thanks jules.
ReplyDeleteJulia is so so funny. Please make this one a regular feature -- she is a charmer. And you transcribe the toddler accent so well.
