Moira is such a Daddy's girl (or 'Boy, Dennis sure is whipped!')

Ok, I'm just copy and pasting this from a post I made on my board the other day. I would write it all again for you, but Dennis has been out of town, I've been awake since 5am, I had to rush Shmoobert (aka Lincoln the Wonder Baby) to the doctor this morning, where I got "yelled" at by my doctor because I was carying both babies (yes, Moira is a baby still, damnit!). He said my back is always going to hurt if I keep lifting kids. I'm thinking I'd rather have my back hurt while I carry them then my heart hurt because they are crying and I wont pick them up. Hmm, maybe I should change the title to 'Boy Those Parents Sure Are Whipped'?

Anyway...copy and paste:


The other night it really hit me exactly how much of a Daddy's Girl Moira is...and also how completely wrapped around her finger Dennis is. There are lots of little examples of this, but the one that struck me was this:
We had finished dinner and Dennis let Moira out of her chair and told her to put her plate in the kitchen. Moira looks at him, bats her pretty long eyelashes and says (in her sweet little girl voice) "No, you can do it for me Daddy, please." ....and Dennis did it!! I asked him why he didn't make her do it and he told me "She said please so nicely!" LOL If I didn't have Dennis so wrapped around my own finger I might be a bit jealous :)

Oh, and Dennis left yesterday to go to NYC, and when he left he told Moira if she was a good girl he would bring her home a present. So then last night I was making dinner and Moira comes in the kitchen to talk to me in her best "I'm a little princess voice":
Moira: I'm gonna get a doggy!
me: you are?
Moira: Yep.
me: How are you going to get a doggy?
Moira: My Daddy is going to buy one for me!
me: I don't think Daddy is going to bring a doggy, Moira.
Moira: Yes, a doggy. 'Cause I'm a good girl
me(starting to get a bit nervous at this point): a real doggy?
Moira (in a "I can't believe you are so dumb voice"): No, a baby doll doggy. My Daddy said.

At this point it's safe to say we are all here just to serve Moira's needs :)

Yep, a cute little brown stuffed doggy that says "I love you" when you press it's paw. She's been carrying it around all day :)
