Hegg Aches and other funny things that beanie says:

PeeDee! (pee wee)
Nonina! (angelina ballerina)
Tattoo! (tutu)
Bidge! (bridge)
Say-wy... (scary)
Monsa (monsters)
AhUhyou (I love you.)
unhWOHcome (you're welcome.)
Sisustng (That's disgusting.)

the rest of the stuff she says is pretty much understandable. Although last night she was crying for "Bats", and I was all "Honey, if you are trying to tell me something, try again. Use your words, I will get it if you keep trying." And she basically chased me down and threw the remote at me. Bounce. As in, that show for kids. Turn it on. Don't talk to me about bats.

She can now count to ten, but was all over the place last night when her dad tried to get her to show me this new skill.

I like how she says Basketball "Backets Ball" and Soccer Ball is "Soccaball" and she yells "CHATCH!" at you as she lofts them at your head.

We now own a lot of books. I buy them all the time from Amazon. Whenever the urge hits, I get a picture book. I recently purchased Stellaluna, Verdi and Crickwing. None of which she enjoys yet.

However, I know my toddler book ferreting abilities are pretty strong, since I made sure she had That's Mean and That's Disgusting pretty early on, and That's Dangerous was pretty recent but works too. She loves them.

My parents have no idea what she is saying, but her new favorite thing is to talk on the phone. She used to stand there and act like she was listening, but now she asks for certain people to be put on the phone, and she will CHAT THEM UP. Only, it's so fast, you have no idea what she's saying. Conversations on my end tend to go like this: "Oh, you had fish? No? You SAW fish? Ah. Oh? Really?......... That's a good story. Did you say baby swing?.......... Oh really? Are you laughing because I figured out what you said? Can I talk to daddy?.............. Say bye bye mommy..." this cues her to say bye bye and her dad will pick up. Average length of call: 2 minutes. I love my kid, but boy, is she a talker!

We've been having some interesting conversations about butts lately too. "My butt." "No, MY butt." She grabs butts. She also turns hers out and makes poot noises with her mouth for special effect. This culminates in tons of giggles. And makes her father and I turn to each other and wonder "is fart humor common in 2 year old girls?"
