Stating the Obvious

There were two times this past week that Annalise was able to point out the obvious answer to a question when as adults, we totally expected something else.  It was funny though because each time she answered she said it with tone of "Well duh, what are you thinking?"

The first time was when we were talking about her birthday party and she was asked what she wanted for her birthday.  Anna completely stopped playing and turned around and said in the funniest tone "Uhhh, presents."  Of course! 

The second time was when Anna and I were doing some shopping last Friday night.  We were in Target and I realized I forgot my list.  Our conversation went something like this:
Me: "Oh no! I forgot my list!" 
Anna:  "Oh no!"
Me:  "I hope I didn't forget anything."  "Do you think I forgot something?"
Anna: "Yes"
Me: "Really?  What do you think I forgot?"
Anna:  Looking at me again with the same "Duh-what-is-wrong-with-you-mommy" look in her eyes paused and replied "the list!!!"
I laughed and kind of sighed when I was done laughing.  Anna then said with pity in her voice "That's OK, mommy's tired"  which made me laugh even more. 
I swear the conversations I have with this 2 year old are so funny!
