Words...

I've been observant of the words that Bella uses frequently lately and most of these seem to relate to her world. She's understands what poop is so far, she'll either give a 'Go poop', 'Bella go poop', 'Eeeew poop!' 'Tricia poop' before or after she goes. She will request her nuts, 'want nut.' When she wants or sees her new food coming in, 'nut, nut, nut' seems to be just for fun. Today she was obessive about the fact she wants 'Shower' and she normally calms down with 'Shower, want shower' after her shower. She was also obsessed with 'See the bird?' after seeing Miss. Mockingbird today and she was very excited about that she saw her out there. I wonder if everyone else has a young Grey that is using a small amount of words to explain their world around them? During the winter she did say 'It's cold, it's cold out.' It's not as frequent as it was when it was pretty cold out. She has begun to call me cookie and took the nickname for herself. She calls me that more than she says my name.

My guys will talk in context sometimes. depending if I am slackin off on something. I will get told Apple, if Stirling isnt given his apple in a timely mannor according to him. Sydney says "see you later, nite nite, bye" when its time to go to bed. he says this After we pass George on the couch and NOT before, because he is unsure if he is going to see daddy or go to bed.
Stirling will tell me "come on, come eeere" when he wants to go to bed.
