Clarification

Everyone knows that toddlers have their own unique pronunciation of words. Most of which sound like gibberish to outsiders but make perfect sense to their parents. However, there a few that baffle even those of us seasoned in toddlerglish. Alas, we have finally after months figured out one of them.


Butt Cheese


I swear to you that is exactly what it sounds like and she says it all the time. Usually when at the table or in the kitchen. I had that as a hint but it remained a big question mark. So here you have it people.


Butt Cheese = Bite


No joke. Bite. Soph is infamous for adding letters on to the end of words like "book" is "booka" and "dad" is "dadin". I think she's actually saying "bitey" which is why it sounds like butt cheese.


I can't tell you how relieved I am.


And as a side note. She's finally started asking for her woobie by name. Only thing is that she pronounces it "woodie" and in all my matureness I can't help but giggle each and every time.


Waiting for the garbage truck this morning. The nice man honks his horn for us!
As you can see, Luke is trying to escape while I look concerned. I made him pinky swear not to involve me in his shennanigans. (thankgoodness for screen door locks!)

Mono-kini Madness!

Too bad we couldn't get a better picture but behold the mono-kini. We found it was a bit big still as daddy had to keep tugging the straps up. We figure she's still a bit young to get beads thrown at her.

Two Peas In A Pod...Er, Pool

Swim class, week 2. Don't be too surprised if you see a picture every week of me at swim class. It's not so much the swimming part, but the swim attire. My mom is a woman obsessed. I believe she already has 5 swimsuits for me this year. Watch out, rumor is she's breaking out the mono-kini next week.


The dads were otherwise engaged this week so it was just Luke and I with our mommies. They put us in the same shower together (!!!) after class. As you can see, we were thrilled.

Fishy Fishy

1st swim class of the year. LOVE the new class. The water is as warm as my tubby. Still not too fond of the dunking under water exercise (do you really think blowing in my face before you submerge my head is going to trick me and make me not hate you for doing it?) but otherwise it was all kinds of fun!

Kisses, Hugs, Love & Cheese

GG came to visit me again this past weekend! Yay! I miss her so much already. Come back soon, GG!

Behold - The Princess Throne Has Arrived

In all it's pink glory. Mom is devastated by this recent development and the pediatrician's suggestion to introduce me to the potty and begin the first steps of potty training. In fact she's a bit weak in the knees just thinking about it.

So far I've gone in the potty twice. This has elicited a bizarre and frightening parade of screaming and hugging by the big people of the house. It's okay I guess. I prefer to take the white thingy out and stand in the hole. I know, like totally creative, right?

Mommy singing me the "bye bye pee pee" song. It's only fair. If I have to sit on cold, hard plastic the least she can do is put on a show for me.
