So I have a normal and very average 18 month old. This means she has some words, but not a whole lot. However, she's now trying to communicate through the spoken language so it makes for fun scenes around the house.
Scene 1: in her room after coming in the morning and smelling something that indicates a diaper change
Me: Hi baby
Tigger: NO!
Me: yes let's change the diaper
Tigger: no, no, no, NO all the while wagging a finger in my face
Me: change diaper, here we go
Tigger: waaaaaaaaaaaaaa!
ah the toddler diaper hating years
Scene 2: in the tub
Me: let's wash the hair
Tigger: giggles, uh oh
Me: uh oh what?
Tigger: me
Me: me what?
Tigger: me bye bye....waves hand
bath time yields so much!
Scene 3: in the bathroom
Me: Tigger get out of the bathroom
Tigger: mami, mami, go peepee?
Me: you go peepee?
Tigger: no, mami
Me: I don't have to go
Tigger: mami, peepee
Me: *sighs* ok mami go peepee
Tigger: yay.....mami peepee
Me: (after an unprecedented privacy free time in the bathroom) ok all done
Tigger: bye peepee!
Great my own cheering section....now that she owns her own potty chair we'll see how interested she gets in herself.
Scene 4: at grandparents house after spending the night and having Tigger in my bed for most of the night
wakes up to giggles and patting of face
Me: Tigger go see grandpapa
Tigger: no, no papa
Me: Tigger go see the dogs and play
Tigger: no, no doggies
Me: are you going to stay here and pester mami until I'm awake then?
Tigger: *claps hands* yay
Me: what happened to "no"?
Tigger: MAMI.....*giggles*
apparently mornings are much cooler if mom is awake too.

Of course they are. Didn't you know sleep is optional once you have kids.
I love these ages. Seriously so much fun once the talking begins and it just doesn't stop. The things they say! So much fun. And sleep is overrated anyway. :)
She is super CUTE!! Love the conversations. It's so great to see you enjoying and recording these times. Brings back happy memories of that stage. Otherwise all I remember is the tantrums...LOL
Those conversations are too cute! She is getting to be a BIG girl!
Adorable!
