Words..

Since we have started this new therapy, L has literally exploded with new words and sayings, sentences and funny things.

I remember as kid growing up that is was so funny to hear the things my Mom wrote down that I said. I really enjoyed listening to all the crazy things I came up with.

So I must share (and I might add that I'm so excited I finally get to do this!!!!) some of the funny things she's said in the last two weeks. It maybe just a few, but in our world. It's many....

While in Park City on vacation, her cousin Jaquelyn was fussing about something at dinner one night, when L looked over at her and told her to "calm down"

While getting ready for church a few weeks ago, I was being grumpy about something. Jason asked "who's got the attitude?!" I responded "Not me", but from the other room there was a loud reply of "ME!!"

L has really enjoyed saying the prayer either for dinner or family bedtime prayer. She repeats what we tell her and she gets a lot of the words right and it's so sweet to hear her. But she still stumbles over a lot of the words and resorted to replacing ones she can't say with ones she knows. So her prayers end like this: "Jeana Chri....AMEN!"
She can't do the two "s" sound in Jesus, so she' uses the next J name she knows. Her Aunt Jeana's name.

While out having a Mom and Daughter day (and savoring the last few days with her as an only child) we were out doing some unimportant errands I wanted to have done before the baby came. After our first store, she was very insistant in the back seat saying "More, (mumble) please" It took about three more tries before I figured out she was saying "More stores please!" I laughed and asked her if that's what she wanted, she gave me her big grin and "duh mom" look. This continued after each store we visited that day....

Now the last one, I'm not sure how proud I am about posting. But honestly, it's funny. And I am taking full responsibility for her knowing this word and have been more careful about using it around her. Occasionally we use Damn and Hell in our house, it's never really bothered us and I probably have used it a little too much while in the midst of all the crazy sewing going on this house this last year.
L knows and uses "Damn it" correctly.
yeah I know....
We were at Jason's parents house showing off his new car, when we loaded up L, my self and Jason to let his Dad take it for a test drive. Before the drive Jason had shown his Dad how the middle seats slide to allow more room for stuffing the back. While backing out of the driveway the seats clicked/snapped locked back into place. Upon hearing this, L slapped her leg and exclaimed loudly "oh, Damn it!!!"

It's been so fun to hear her say all these fun things and use her words more and more...
