Let me start by saying that I have a love affair with watermelon that has grown as I've gotten older. When I was pregnant with Adeline a couple of summers ago (in July & August), I would just cut the watermelone in half and sit with the WHOLE half & a spoon. Then, of course, it would swell & I couldn't get off the couch! And...repeat the next night, and the next, and, well, you get the picture!
So anyway, Adeline, too, is in love with watermelon. The way she says watermelon is quite possibly the funniest thing she says. She says munnamelon. Pronounced mun-uh-melon, but really fast. Like so fast that it took us a long time to replicate the way she says it!
So every time she goes to the grocery store with me & sees watermelons during the summer, she's shouting about getting a munnamelon. We had one in the car this week & every time we would go somewhere, she would say, "oh mom, we have to get the munnamelon out of the car"!
Finally, yesterday, I had just drove up from working out & Adam was leaving to go to workout, so Adeline and I were getting the watermelon out so we could cut it up. She says "mom, i'm going to get strong, too (insert cute muscle flex), so I can carry munnamelons"! Then she proceeds to talk about how she will go workout & do weights to give her big muscles. All for the munnamelons!
