Ah... Un-oh, uh-oh, uh-oh, uh-oh

Three guesses what L. learned to say while I was gone on my trip. LOL!

She is thoroughly cracking me up with her little word. Friday night I put her to bed. She wasn't ready to settle down and go to sleep, so she started experimenting with ways to get me to take her out of her crib.

First, she embarked on the grumping, fussing combo. That was followed with mild crying. When those two didn't immediately produce results, she started banging on the sides of her crib. The banging was accompanied by 'aaaaaa.... uh-oh, uh-oh, uh-oh, uh-oh, uh-oh, uh-oh, uh-oh, uh-oh, uh-oh, uh-oh, uh-oh' and so on. The little stinker has already caught on that we come running when the 'uh-oh' word is heard. It took her a grand total of 10 minutes to lay down and go to sleep. However, her antics gave me another 15 minutes of giggles.

I just LOVE this learning-words stage! When Jo (my 4-yr-old) was L's age she picked up on the way the Count (on Sesame Street) laughed. If we prompted, "What does the count say?" she'd go "ah-ah-ah!" She sounded just like him!

Glad you're home safe & sound!
