talk talk talk

a few of paige's new words:

"dada": slightly different intonations signify daddy, dog and baba. 

"uh-oh": you can probably figure this one out for yourself. i love when she says it after deliberately dropping or throwing things off her tray. uh, no paige, that's not an "uh-oh." uh-oh implies an accident. chucking carrots across the room is no accident.

"dant": this is her darling name for grant, which is usually delivered in a high, shrill tone. i'm hoping that's just her being excited to see her brother and not indicative of how often i yell at grant.

"ahhh": a soft, loving little sound that she reserves for cuddling stuffed animals and pointing out cute kitties and doggies in books. 

"dat": accompanied by a pointed finger when she wants you to tell her what something is. it's particularly fun when that pointed finger goes into your eye or up your nose.
