Mimic

Cowgirl KJ

I have a three year old daughter. Cowgirl KJ.  She is three and does a lot of three year old things,pretends to ready books, sing songs, run in circles till she is dizzy, pick her boogers out of her nose, eats said boogy,  you know the usual.  She also mimics people around her.  Not in a mean way just the way it goes.

She went thought this phase where she put her hands on her hips when ever she thought she was making an important statement. "I want cheese for lunch, okay, okay." ( and yes she does the double okay.)  I found this quite funny until I noticed myself doing the hands on hips thing, and went oh crap she gets it from me.

I have noticed several things she does like me or my husband.  I can be humorous and intriguing to see yourself thought a child's eyes.

But recently I noticed that I might be mimicking her, or I might be mimicking her mimicking me.  Not sure and that train of thought could go on forever.  I just noticed I am now doing things she does.  Saying things like her, or doing a jester she usually does.

It has me pretty worried.  Am I annoying people around me by mimicking a 3 year old.  Yikes!   In self-defense, Baby Cowgirl CE (nine months old today) has not exactly been sleeping thought the night... unless your count getting up 3-4 times a night a good nights sleep.  And if you do... well your a better woman than me... or man... but seriously woman are pretty tough.

Okay going to think about sleeping now, okay, okay......oops I did it again


..and now I have that Britney Spears song stuck in my head...
