Annie has gotten possessive about some things in her life...certain toys, her chair, books...but none so much as her Mommy. She routinely pushes the dogs away from me and tells them that I belong to her, but recently it has expanded to other places. A few weeks ago I brought cupcakes to her class to celebrate her birthday. Annie passed out plates to all her friends, and then made it clear to everyone there that "This is my Mommy, so don't get any bright ideas..." She repeatedly said "My Mommy" while hugging my leg and staring down all the other toddlers that glanced in my, and the cupcakes, direction. The same thing happened a few nights ago while we were at a restaurant for dinner. If anyone even looked our way with Annie seeing, she would say in a not so nice voice, "No, my Mommy, my Mommy". Well I guess I should feel flattered that she thinks everyone else in the world (including grown adults) would want me as their Mommy!
I think Annie has also figured out restaurants. We don't really go out too often, but the last few times that we have gone out, Annie has asked the waitress for some milk when she takes our drink orders. The last time we went out, the service was kinda slow, and I think Annie noticed because she asked/told every waiter that walked by "I have some Dinner?" Hopefully it will be a while before she figures out that most restaurants also serve dessert...although in my opinion that wouldn't be so bad, as long as she shared it with me!
