Chatty Cathy

Ava can now string 2-3 words together and we are so impressed. It’s amazing how one day she can all of the sudden say like 10 new words!

She now says:

Meme jacket (meme left her jacket at our house and Ava noticed it was still there)

House shoes

Super why (one of her favorite tv shows) but most of the time she calls it B-why

Teeth (she pointed to my toothbrush and said “Mama Teeth”)

Socks are hocks

Shoes are now foos

Milk Cup

Water

Banana is now nana instead of baba

Bread

Bed and Mama, Dada, or Magna Bed

Dada or Mama night night

Outside and go outside

Door and close door

Walk

Git up

BeBe night night (Baby)

Monkeys are still Mommies

Raspberries “Rappies”

She can also say several of her classmate’s names and when we get to school she starts yelling them before I can even get her out of her seat.

She came back from her grandparent’s house saying “Sassy barked at the squirrel” in her words “Assy bar curl”

I love getting in the car and putting her music on now because when certain songs come on I’ll hear her back there singing them. She loves “daddy wouldn’t buy me a bow wow” and I hear her back there saying “dada…bowwow, dada bowwow” It’s the cutest! She also likes Old McDonald and moo’s when it comes on and H-A-P-P-Y where she just says P-Y throughout the song.

She has started telling us when she is about to go potty in her diaper and then when it’s dirty she points to her diaper and says “Die Die”. So we think we may start a little potty training soon. On the weekends when Steve is home she doesn’t like for him to sleep in so as soon as she sees him she starts shoving him or gets out of bed and starts pulling his hand saying “dada up, dada up”

Last week she decided she no longer likes to wear shirts. I try and put her shirt on and she says no and pulls it off. This morning getting her dressed for school was a small miracle. We are in the full fledged tantrum stage and when she doesn’t get her way she is (like my friend Rhonda calls her little girl Kate), “a tiny terror” Usually she gets like this when she wants to go outside or doesn’t want to go to bed, and apparently now when her mean and hateful mommy tries to do an absurd thing like make her wear clothes to school. I told her “Ava you can’t go to school naked, you have to wear clothes.” Haha!

She is also slightly obsessed with the following:

Crackers

Putting her baby, magnum and casper to night night

Playing outside

Dressing and undressing her baby
