Shoo Bug....Bye!

Abby Anne is quite the talker these days. She can repeat anything we say...which is kinda scary! Her vocabulary is growing daily. She is now starting to use a lot of sentences, too. It amazes me how she actually knows what words mean and when to use them and how to use them correctly. The other night, we were eating at Dixie Cafe, and Abby Anne had her very own cup of ice water. She took a drink and looked at me with those big blue eyes and said very enthusiastically-"IT'S COLD....MOMMA!" Stephen and I just laughed! She enjoys watching Elmo ALL OF THE TIME...much to our dismay. The first words out of her mouth in the morning are "MELMO...MELMO!" Then she very politely hands me the remote so I can turn it on. She also watches her favorite movie of all time in the car as we travel, Elmo's Potty Time! She has watched this movie so much that she can now sing the songs...the actual words! I will just say that being a "potty video" there are some...well...interesting new words that Abby Anne has picked up. Some of her most recent ones are of course the ever so popular "poo poo" and the not as common "doodie." Perhaps we need to change the video out! Another funny thing she said occurred yesterday at lunch. I had her in her high chair feeding her lunch and there was a fly flying around the table. She looked at it, waved her hand, and said, "Shoo Bug!....Bye!" And then waved! The fly must have known exactly what she was saying because it left!! Abby Anne gives me a new reason to smile and laugh each day!!
