Toddlerspeak

We're almost at the two year mark and Relia's language skills grow by leaps and bounds. Everyday three are new words and phrases. It's like she's listening to us and learning or something. Recent phrases include:
  • Where are you?
  • It's yucky.
  • Dancing car outside! (This one is for the ice cream truck.)
  • Is that really the square root or are you just making that up? (Mumbled, but you can still tell that's what she's saying.)
She has also become very involved in what clothes she will wear. Most mornings we find her with a shirt wrapped around her waist as she tried to change outfits. Sometimes the clothes are too warm or too cold but her color sense is about on par with mine. (We're hoping it improves.) If we make the mistake of picking out the wrong pants she lets us know. Boy howdy, she lets us know! Occasionally we have to force pants on her but we usually let her win.

The learning continues...

where are you usually comes out as "Mama, are you?" with the same intonation as "Where are you?"
