Funny Things Gia Says

This is going to be an on-going post where I write down funny things Gia says.  I just don't want to forget how hilarious she is at this age.

9/20/16
Gia had a cavity filled last week and Bobby had 3 filled this day:
Daddy:  Gia, you know what?!  The dentist said he was proud of me because I did as good as you did!
Gia:  Of course you did.  You're a grown up.

WHile in the kitchen taking cookies out of the oven, Gia says to me: 
"I'm in cartwheel class!  But, it's just pretend, Mama.  It's not real.  I'm just pretending it's cartwheel class."
Me:  "That's okay, Gia.  You don't have to tell me, I know you're pretending.  It's fine with me that you pretend."
Gia:  "Of course.  It's fine for everyone.  Except bad guys."

Gia was practicing cartwheels in the living room and we were encouraging her.  I did a cartwheel and she told me, "Oh, good try."

3/18/16
"You can't try to fart slowly.  Farts just come out the way they're going to."  "I like farts, except they're stinky." 12/2/15
After drawing a picture for Bobby and telling me about it:
Me: Oh, Gia, it's beautiful!  Daddy is going to love it.
Gia:  Of course he is.

10/28/15
Gia is practicing saying the "th" sound rather than the "f" sound in "th" words.  
Me: Oh, Gia, you're growing up.
Gia: I'm already grown up.  Well, almost.
Me: Oh, okay.
Gia:  Well, but I'll always be your daughter. 
Me: Thanks Gia!
Gia:  And you'll still take me on dates, even if I'm grown up.
Me:  That's right.
Gia: I don't want to grow up.
Me:  Okay, you can stay little.  You can still live with us when you're grown up.  
Gia: Yeah.  But then I'll get married.
Me:  You can still live with us when you get married.  Your husband will have to live with us, too, but you can still live with us. 
Gia:  Yeah.  And eat nuts.

While watching Little Einstein's: 
Bobby:  "Oh no, why did the witch erase the note trail?"
Gia:  "That's just the way the show is."

6/4/15
Gia has begun asking questions about different objects, like why toys work a certain way or why a shirt has a hole in it.  The conversations go something like this:
Gia:  "Mama, why is this toy green?"
Me:  "I don't know, that's just it's color."
Gia:  "That's just the way God made it?" 12/2/14
To Trey as they were playing in the play kitchen:
"I'll get you some few couple more."

11/20/14
Me, looking at the almost empty bag of gummy bears, I said, "who ate all those gummy bears??"
Gia, with a mouth full of gummy bears said, "Uh, nobody."

6/23/14
As we are ready to leave for the airport to visit family in NC/SC and go to Aunt Kelly's wedding, Gia is sitting on the kitchen counter drinking her milk.  I looked at her and smiled, and she looked up at me, stopped drinking her milk, smiled and said:
Gia:  Yeah, I did fart.
Me:  ::laughing:: Oh, you did?
Gia:  Yeah.  It was just a little fart, like me.

4/7/14
Me:  Gia, what do you want for a snack?
Gia:  Um, chicken and grapes and carrots and sour cream.
Me:  That's an interesting combo.

3/20/14
We were talking about going to the beach this summer and seeing the fish...
Bobby:  We're going to see some fish this summer.
Gia:  Yeah!  The fish live in the trees.
Me:  No Gia, the fish live in the ocean.  That's the water at the beach.
Gia:  Oooh, cool.  The ocean is in the trees!

3/5/14
1.  Gia says"scooting" down the stairs as "I'm scoopin'"
2.  Blueberries = "blueblerries"
3.  Frosted flakes are "banana cereal" because she misheard me when I told her it was Nana's cereal.  Even when I tried to explain that it was from Nana, not that it was bananas, she said, "Oh.  Nana gave me the banana cereal?"
4.  In her doctor kit, the stethoscope is her "telescope."

Tonight during prayer time, Gia prayed for Abbi and Elmo, and for cookies, and for Daddy sharing cookies with her... even though it was really Mama's cookies she was eating!  

After Bible time tonight, which was Daniel and the Lions' den, she talked all evening about "Daniel and the baby lions."  Maybe it was her way of making it less scary?  Or maybe she just likes baby animals :o)

1/7/14
We shared some snicker bites.  After I asked Gia to throw away the wrapper in the trash...
Me:  Gia, what are you eating?
Gia:  Chocolate.
Bobby:  Where did you get chocolate?  
Gia:  From the trashcan! 

Bobby and I just looked at each other.  Side note, we think she was just still chewing the snickers she already had. 


1/4/14
Gia:  What are you eating, Mama?
Me:  Candy.
Gia:  Oh.  I don't want any candy.
Me:  You don't want candy?
Gia:  No, I don't.
Me:  Oh, okay.
Gia:  I want some candy.


1/3/14:
1.  Gia says Ernie and Bert as Ernie and "Burp"
2.  When she uses her doctor kit, Gia uses the stethoscope to check her "heart-beep."


12/20/13
Papa Joe:  Do we need to change your diaper?  Is it okay?
Gia:  Yeah.  It's not too hot, not too cold.  Juuuust right!


12/6/13
Yesterday while decorating cookies:

Bobby: Gia, you're a girl. And Mama's a girl, and Daddy's a boy, and Nana's a girl, and Papa's a boy.
Gia: Nana's a boy?
Bobby: No, Nana's a girl. Papa's a boy.
Gia: Ohhh.
Bobby: What's Mama?
Gia: A Gamecock.

Apparently we watch too much football in this house.

Gia was crying today when she was with Bobby and going to the bathroom, and then she stopped and said to him, "That was a fake cry," and giggled.
