22 1/2 Months!

Where has the time gone? No. Seriously. Where??  My baby is almost two!  She loves to remind me... "ah-mose two".

Her vocabulary has exploded. She is stringing two, three, sometimes four words together.  She is also repeating things that she hears us say. Fortunately, the worst of it has been, "C'mon Doood!" 

Some of my favorite sayings, so far, are:
"Ah nee goves ahn!" (I need gloves on! She is a little obsessed with the gloves that her caretakers wear while changing diapers, and I am thankful that they wear them.  She reminds them to!)

"I hurt knee. Pay gahn." ( I hurt my knee on the playground.  She has just learned what "hurt" means.  After a broken arm scare... which turned out to be a bruised/strained elbow?... she now knows that you can get hurt on the playground.)

"ahp baby" (Wrap up baby.  This can be used when she wraps her baby, or when she wants you to wrap her up like a baby.)

"I see deeger" or " uhllah digger" (I see digger. Yellow digger. There is a digger that has been working near our house and she loves to see it when we drive past.)

"Ess-ahn's sahns" (Ellasyn's songs. She loves to listen to her Bible songs in Mommie's car.)

"Go-ging ah-side" ( Going outside. She loves to play outside!)

"Pat hiney"  "Mommie see dahn" "Mommie see cah-pet" (Referring to bedtime when I sit on the floor by her bed and pat her hiney or her back. Mommie sit down, or sit on the carpet.)

She uses "I see", "I need" and "Have that" more than I can count in one day.  It always makes me laugh when she repeats the same phrase over and over with exactly the same pronunciation and inflection and I have NO idea what she is talking about.
