We've been a little curious if our darling daughter was ever going to say anything other than "da da da da!" Yesterday she while driving in the car, she pointed out the front window and said "whas dat?" So cute, but makes you wonder if it was used in context or just coincidence. Well, today she and I were playing with her Fisher Price farm and she'd pick up an animal and look at me and say "whas dat?"
Yay! We might get her talk yet! She's been signing with us so she can express herself. She signs for milk, eat, more (which is her favorite) and please. She's a stubborn little thing. I've already had to practice some tough love with her. In the tub, when it's time to put the toys away, she refuses to put hers away. So I get Riley out and dry him off while she stands there (and freezes because we let the water out) and screams until she finally gives in and puts her toy away. She knows exactly what I'm asking her to do, but thinks that her cute little smile will get her out of EVERYTHING and now that it's not, she's having a fit! She'll yell "owww!" which is her version of "no!"
Andy and I are fearful that she's going to be a drama queen and throw the type of tantrums I've dreaded. She doesn't like being told what to do nor does she want anyone to help her do much of anything. Will she throw herself on the ground flailing her arms and legs while screaming? Only time will tell. I'm already praying for those years to go by smoothly!
