I Scream, You Scream!

Me: Hey Tizzy. Would you like some ice-cream?

Tizzy: Quick gasp. Of Course!!!

Tizzy skipping around the kitchen: I shore do like ice-cream Mom.

Me: laughing. You’re so cute.

Tizzy: So are you Mom!

Tizzy peering over the ice-cream box: Is that Danilla?

Me: No it’s Rocky Road. It’s like chocolate.

Tizzy: Chocolate?! That’ll keep me up Mom!

Me: That’s why I’m giving it to you now hon’, during the day.

Tizzy: O.K. Mom!

Zip comes riding in on Brad’s back: Ice-Cream! Ice-Cream! I want some too-ooo Mom!

Me: Comin’ right up, Sweetheart!

Zip: Datz Choc-what?

Me: It’s called Rocky Road.

Zip: Rock n’ da road?

Me: Rocky Road.

Zip: Hmm. It’s Rocky Road.

Zip doing an ice-cream dance: It’s Ice-Cream! It’s Ice-Cream! It’s Mine, It’s Mine, It’s Mine!

As I hand Zip his ice-cream cone: It’s mine Mom?

Me: Yes, it is.

Zip: OH FANX MOM!

Me: You’re Welcome.

That's awesome! I do a happy dance when I get ice cream, too.

I can picture that happy dance in my head. Too cute.

This sounds hauntingly familiar to what goes on in my head when I know we have ice cream in my house, too!

I have these same conversations with Hayden. So precious.

This is adorable. I love this about kids... what does it really take to make them happy?! We should pull a page from their book...

My kids take a much more cautious approach:

"We can't have ice cream, right Mom?" when they really want it.

I wonder why that is?

Wow. What an awesome conversation. I don't think it would ever occur to Pablo to suggest ice cream. Slushes from Sonic? Totally different deal.

Rocky Road was the only ice cream I would eat when I was a kid.

Nicki said...

How cool to be a little kid, when getting unexpected ice cream can just make the whole world seem so awesome!

I took Maggie for ice cream the other day after the playground. I think I was doing more of a happy dance then she was!

Fanx Mom for this precious post!

We used to call Vanilla Danilla too! Ice cream brings out the sweetest moments, doesn't it?

Sorry I've been a bit MIA lately, so much going on with the move and fitting in some traveling before my husband starts teh new job!

Your kids are so well-trained. "But it'll keep me up!" "It's mine?" Adorable.

Ah, choc-what...

Makes me wish I'd blogged when mine were younger. I've lost all those special moments to I can't remember my name!
