All I want for Christmas is... a 5 piece chicken nuggets.

Kay-Kay doesn't have two-way conversations with anyone very often. That doesn't mean she doesn't know what's going on but she just doesn't communicate it necessarily. We were at Kohls the other evening and the cashier was talking to her. Kaelyn mainly was saying random things about Christmas to the woman because we had just been back in the Christmas section. Then the lady said, "What is Santa Clause going to bring you this Christmas?" (after asking her several other questions without much of a [sensible] response). Kaelyn said, "Umm, ummm, a five piece chicken nuggets." The lady said, "You're getting chicken nuggets for Christmas?" Kaelyn said, "And a small fries". I was about to die laughing and the other guy behind the register as well as the cashier were laughing. Kaelyn later also added "a small sprite" to the list. I didn't bother to explain to the people that because they were behind a counter (like the people are at Wendy's) and Kaelyn didn't understand the question she just assumed the desired response was to place her typical Wendy's order. When we go inside the restaurant, she walks right up to the counter and says, "Yeah, I would like a 5-piece chicken nuggets, a value (or small) fries, and a value sprite please". I guess Christmas shopping for her will be much easier than I thought. Now what would the rest of you like for Christmas - Wendy's, McDonalds, Subway, or Arby's? :)

What a response!=) If only everyone made shopping this smooth & easy. haha
At least now, you shouldnt get any complaints about her not getting what she wants.

As much as she may have not understood the question exactly.... if it were me, I would still probably go ahead and get her that MEAL the day before as an "early" Christmas present!

What is it about kids and McD's..etc? You would think we eat out all the time. The children usually have them memorized by the signs before they are 3. If only we could get them to "memorize" other things just as well. :)

So true Amy. My daughter's first word that she can "read" is Wal-mart. If we are going down the road and she sees it on a truck, she recognizes the logo. At least she's familiar with high class places like Wal-mart, McDonald's, Wendy's etc. :)
