Jayda put a dish towel in Sydney's sleeper and they were laughing SO hard because Sydney had a "big booty". They are hilarious together.
She copies everything that Jayda does, and says. She also copies everything anyone else says, it is like having a little parrot around. When Jayda is gone to school Sydney tells me "miss Jayda". She also says "miss daddy" when he is gone to work and asks "daddy home?" a lot. She is talking so much these days. She started putting two words together around 21 months and just started putting 3 and 4 words together. The first 2 words that she said together was "hold me", go figure. She likes to be held a lot when she's tired, scared, or just wants some lovin'. The first 3 words she put together was "my turn baby". It is so hilarious how she says it too! She says this every night at bedtime when they brush their teeth and it's her turn. She likes it to be her turn do things and says "my turn" often throughout the day. And then today she put 4 words together while we were eating lunch. I had put some ranch dressing on her plate and she asked me "put cheese in there?" because she wanted to know if she could dip her cheese in the ranch dressing. It is amazing how much she is learning and picking up right now and she is just so much fun. Some other common words/phrases she puts together right now are:
"Hi Jayda/daddy/mommy"-she says hi to everyone and usually waves also. When she gets up the morning and sees Jayda for the first time she always says "Hi Jay-ja!"
"Shoes on/shirt on/pants on"-after breakfast every morning she likes to take her pj's off and put her "shirt on" and "pants on". She likes to get dressed for the day and doesn't like staying in her pj's, it's pretty funny.
"Jayda's shoes"-she loves to wear any and all of Jayda's shoes and puts them on first thing when she wakes up, and throughout the day.
"My shoes"-she says this a lot when she wants her shoes on, or when her shoes fall off and she's trying to get them back on. She is definitely a shoe fanatic and always have to have them on (hmm, wonder where she gets that from?). Also, she doesn't EVER wear matching shoes, they have to be 2 totally different shoes and/or sizes. A lot of times she will be walking around the house in one of my high heels and one of Jayda's dress up shoes. I guess she likes variety.
Cheesing so hard while giving Jayda a hug that she had to close her eyes. Notice the 2 totally different shoes she has on.
"No mama/daddy/Jayda"-Sydeny uses this one A LOT and doesn't mind telling you No!
"Owside peez"-she would live outside if we let her, absolutely loves playing outside. I love how she is learned to say please when asking for something, so cute!
"Help me"
"C'mon mommy/daddy/Jayda" and pulls our hand to wherever she wants us to go very insistently and will keep saying it and pulling you until you finally do what she wants you to.
"In here" whenever she wants to go somewhere like the playroom, into her room, or even into the kitchen cabinets.
"Get baby"-she carries baby dolls around the house ALL the time. Usually she has one in the storller and holds one.
Playing dress up with her baby. She always has a baby doll in her hand.
"Get you"-she also likes to push (or more like shove) things into us, like baby strollers or toys with wheels. Yah that's not so fun for us, but she just laughs and laughs, until the toy gets taken away. :)
"Eat bkfast"-that's usually what she tells me when she wakes up in the morning.
"Like mowers"-she does not like when the mowers are outside and always says "like ____" when she doesn't like something (think she's a little confused).
"Shut door/open door"-Sydney always shuts any doors that are open. No matter where we are she will shut the door behind her, or behind anyone else.
"Tata mama/daddy/jayda" for thank you. She has very good manners and almost always says thank you when given something.
"Watch me"-she likes to say that when she wants you to see something that she's doing or proud of like eating her food or being silly.
"Uh-oh mama/daddy"-she says this a lot when she falls or whenever something goes wrong.
"Up there" when she wants to put something up on the counter, or climb up on top of something.
"Two markers" because she loves to color and always has to have 2, one for each hand.
"Right back"-she likes to tell us that all the time when she is going somewhere to let us know she'll be right back. It is so cute!
"Wait me!"-Sydney always wants us to wait for her and never wants to be left behind. She has to be right there with us for whatever we are doing, so sweet!
And that's just a few of the sayings that I can think of off the top of my head, she talks a lot! Also, since she has this new found vocabulary, she has started babbling and talking FOREVER when I lay her down to sleep. It has been taking her 1-2 hours to fall asleep in her crib at night, and has just started doing the same thing at naptime. She doesn't fuss or anything, just talks and talks. We can hear her in her room saying "No-no mama, hi Jayda, play baby, hide Jayda" and much more. I acutally just got her up out of her bed today after she talked for an hour because we are going to have to pickup Jayda from school soon. Guess she may stop napping soon...at least she'd go to bed at night, hopefully!
