Snack Time Alphabets

M.O.M. (in the kitchen, preparing Sippy Cup's lunch)

Me (from the living room): "Do you know what would be amazing right now?  A snack!  Perhaps a mango?  Maybe a plum?"

M.O.M.: "Was that a hint?"

Sippy Cup (from the living room as well): "I want a snack too!"

Me (high-fiving him): "Snack time!"

M.O.M.: "Lovely."

Princess Teacup (running into the kitchen): "Mommy! Mommy! I want pickle!"

M.O.M.: "Really?  All of you want a snack at the exact same time?! The minute I'm in the kitchen, everyone is suddenly hungry!  OMG!"

Princess Teacup (jumping and dancing): "H! I! J! K! L-M-N-O-P!"

Cupcakes

Sippy Cup (walking home from Nina's house): "Aww Dad!  Look!  The neighbor's dogs are so cute!"

Me (taking a look and seeing three Lhasa Apsos running around the yard): "Heh. Yeah. They are cute."

Sippy Cup (turning to me): "We should get one of those!"

Me: "Well, my good sir, while I agree that we should get a puppy, I don't think it should be one of those."

Sippy Cup (frowning): "Why not?"

Me: "Because, my good man, Daddy has decided that he wants a bulldog.  French or English. It doesn't matter.  I just want a bulldog.  Like Spike, from Tom and Jerry!"

Sippy Cup (crossing his arms): "No way! I want a little one like that!  And I want to name her 'Cupcake'!"

Me (aghast): "What? Who are you?"

Sippy Cup (turning and walking away): "I'm a kid!"

Me: "Thanks Captain Obvi-"

Sippy Cup (shouting over his shoulder): "And I want a puppy named 'Cupcake'!"
