Who's the Boss?

So as we all have come to know at the early age of 3, Hailey definitly has a mind of her own. Yes, I know she's not 3 yet but give or take a few weeks she's basically there. For example, last Sunday we were in the car heading to my parents house for dinner when Hailey told Ron and I that she didn't want to go to Grandma's house for dinner and wanted to go to a Diner. Now, what 3 year old knows that you can go to a Diner for dinner? Granted that all throughout the summer while I was doing the summer series runs we ate at a dinner 2x's a week and on Sunday's after I run we go to a diner for breakfast, but still. So that gave us a little chuckle! Last night was no different.

In anticipcation of Rudolph the Red Nose Reindeer being on TV, Ron and I had dinner with the kids early and got everything cleaned up so that we could settle into bed with the kids and watch the show. At about 7:15 we were all finished and had some time to kill before the show began. Ron was laying in bed with H&J watching The Wiggles in the meantime when Hailey turned around and said:

Hailey: Wait Daddy I have to get my puzzle, Pause it!
Ron: What?
Hailey: Pause it!
Ron: (looking at me) Ok
Me: I didn't even know she knew, "pause it"
Ron: Me neither!
Hailey: (yelling from downstairs) Dad, you didn't turn off the TV
Me: Well she told you
Me & Ron: (laughing)
Hailey: Okay, i'm back!

Now, as Hailey was climbing back into bed Ron hit play on the TV, Wellllll

Hailey: (very sternly and yelling) Daddy, I'm not ready yet!

Remember she's only 3. Wonder what she's going to be like at 15. I'm scared!
