Mommy's lil parrot

Today we were flipping through the Big Animal Book with Miss E and decided to take her to Austin Zoo, which you should check out if you're in the area. It's small but inexpensive and good for small children and bday parties since there isn't a ton of walking to do. Anyhow!

Between the book and the zoo today my little parrot has said:

Peacock
Owl
Cow
Efant (elephant)
Rilla (gorilla)
Cat
Uush (fish- she has trouble with Fs)
Tiger
Turtle

From sesame street:
Whas happenin?


She repeats everything now.

We're getting ready to celebrate her 2nd birthday! I can't believe it has been 2 years! If I get around to gathering the pics I'll do a sappy photo montage!

Sheesh!!

We now have toddlerized versions of:
Ready Set Go
Good Morning
Papa Be Right Back?
Big Bird

A few shopping suggestions..

Gauze overalls. Need I say more?

Unfortunately yes, I must. It involves a button up man thong. View at your own risk. For maximum WTF effect, please scroll down to the "In Shape" page.

Holy Moly!

More new words! She's using one or two new words a day now it seems!

Just today:
Where Jep?- Where's Jeff? (followed by Jep be back?)
Amoo- Elmo (she just went to bed saying Ni Ni Amoo)

A couple of days ago we heard baby's first bad word- Shit! (she was trying to say share... I think)


And in case anyone cares, my divorce will be final tomorrow afternoon!

Chatty Baby, pt 2

I forgot "Aaaa aboo"- All aboard (from her sing n go choo choo)

The other day she plopped her little butt down by the door and said fairly clearly "I can do it!"
She also added "See ya" to her farewell repertoire a couple days ago.

We also have:
Bubbles
Eaw- ear (which she demonstrated about 3 seconds after I typed it. She's sitting on my right arm, so she must have picked it up by osmosis.)
Awight- Alright
One Twooooo Reee (when she wants to play/jump/go down the slide)
Cookie
Hot
Be back? (she said mama be back? this weekend with grandma)

I think she's speaking in sentences for the most part, she's fairly consistent when she's speaking, but we haven't translated it for the most part!

Chatty baby!

Shoes is by far still E's favorite word (and object!)
She says a lot of words and a couple short phrases now (at home, she usually only says hi/bye when she's not among family) , though I'm bound to forget most of them when I'm trying to remember.

I swear yesterday at the pool she said "I fwyyyyyyyyy" when I was pushing her around through the water on her belly. I had arm floaties on her and she floated on her belly for a bit without my help for about 10 seconds, before she noticed I'd let go and she freaked!

The newish words:
Up
Dow(n)
Up N Dow(n)
Eat
Milk
Joooos (Juice)
Cup
H'loo (on the phone)
I do it/ I di it
Goggy
Osigh (outside)
Diaper
Potty
Ba/ Batime (bathtime)
Sah (sock)
Cocoo- Popsicle
Keekee- Rice Krispies
MINE!

She is sure to remind me to put milk in her rice krispies, and in her cup while I'm prepping her breakfast. She also thinks beer, bottled water and cans of soda are "milk."


Oh and Amy, she just said "H'lo Ameeeee" on her play phone. Just thought you should know..
