Walk away.......backwards

Another Ryan-ism, and one she uses frequently.  "Walk away" is the usual response to a number of situations:  being asked to do something she doesn't want to do, going to bed, and most often, when she needs some alone time on the potty.   The other morning, a very tired and crabby Ryan reluctantly went to her bathroom to go potty.  Dad came in to help and Ryan, with the attitude of a 13 year old girl, took one look at him and said "walk away daddy, walk away", when Grant didn't immediately follow her demands, she began shaking one leg (while on the potty) in attempt to shoo him out of the bathroom "I said walk away".   You know she really means business when she adds the 'backwards' in for clarification.  She told Aunt Barbara recently to 'walk away...backwards' when Aunt Barbara had the gall to stick around to see if Ryan needed help in the bathroom.  'I do it myself'.

Special child she is. 

Here are a few Tuesday morning treats for y'all: 

Obviously we're big on our Santa pajamas (or 'ho-hos' as they are called by the toddler set).
