Her bath book... containers, etc... is 'bleh leh leh' (tongue out, unsure why)
Whenever we see ducks, sheep, froggys, chickens, and now snowmen, we must exclaim "duck" or "sheep"... you get the idea. Snowman is the new one. I don't remember teaching her that...
She knows the sounds that all sorts of animals make. Cats, dogs, cows, horses, and now sheep (baaa), frogs (rubbet), chickens (bock), pigs (ink), lions tigers and bears (oh my... hahaha), ducks (kak), and all other animals... we just look at mommy silly for asking. Although, I didn't teach her half of these. I just played the question game one day when my husband was in the store picking up some groceries and I needed to occupy the kids in the van. Just started asking her what different sounds animals made... and randomly asked about pigs and sheep and chickens... and she answered! All the ones I could think to ask... and she answered! Crazy!
Santa is still scary... until he gives you a candy cane. Then he's alright. (We did manage to take a picture with him this year... Bram was on Santa's knee, and so was I, with M on my knee since she did not want to sit with Santa)
Presents under the tree elicit "Happy Dirt Day" (her way of saying happy birthday, haha).
We always want to watch "mickey ouse house". And we know who Donald Duck is. And Tinkerbell.
All fairies are Tinkerbell. When we wear wings, we are Tinkerbell. Little bells are called Tinkerbell. So are those glass Christmas balls.
We went to the city this week to finish Christmas shopping (the kids gifts were already done) and first thing my daughter says is 'ood' (food) and shortly thereafter... "I yant toys". WHAT? Toys... seriously? When did you learn to ask for toys? I think it's hilarious.
Lately she wants to watch a 'moo-ey'... And she loves 'super mawio'. And yoshi... or "shoshi". She keeps asking for me to play them.
All green dinosaurs are 'yoshi'. So are green crocodiles... or any green lizard for that matter.
"broken" is another favorite word.
All baby boys have her brother's name. And she is saying her own name now... as well as her cousins. When she sees pictures of family she will also name them and point. So cute.
We put up the tree... with no decorations. First thing M asks... is 'lights?' Apparently all pine trees in houses need lights. And she wouldn't stop asking us to turn them on, even though there weren't any on the tree to turn on. And now, whenever she sees the tree and the lights are not on, she feels the need to remind me to turn them on. And 'fix it'.
See a mess? Call it a mess. Clean it up? Say 'all clean'.
We can actually clean our toys. All of them. Found that out when daddy pressed the issue.
We will mimic almost anything others say. Yeah. Time to really make sure we don't say things we shouldn't.
We found out we cannot buy gifts for each other now with our daughter... she knows what things are and she will ask for them even when we try to hide them from the other person. I already know I'm getting a 'yoshi' plush from my husband... haha. She sure wanted it, haha.
Oh... and we always want mommy to 'sing song'. And if mommy asks her to sing instead, she proceeds to sing 'twinkle twinkle little star'... and she does so very well... even though after that first line we don't know what she is saying... exactly... ha ha.
Well, that's all for Through my Daughter's eyes for now...
What about my son? Well, he loves to watch his sister play... and is so happy to see her. He is thrilled to see anyone who will give him attention, too. But I have to say, it is so cute to watch him watch his sister. She always wants to share her toys with him... even though a bunch of the toys she tries to share shouldn't be. He's eaten a hair clip of hers... and almost ate a magnet (good thing I caught that one). She keeps giving him her milk cup, ha ha.
Anyway... I need to get working on gifts again. Almost done. Haven't started Christmas baking yet either. Oops. I'm a little behind this year... things have been a bit crazy the last couple of months. Later, all!
