Just had to document one of the things Amelia does lately that makes my heart melt in its cuteness…
I know I should probably correct bad grammar/language – and we do, but Amelia has some fun sayings.
If I ask her if she wants something – like what kind of juice or what to drink – she answers “how ’bout … milk” or “how ’bout … apple juice” – cracks me up. (The … represents her drawing out the bout)
If she is eating at dinner and finishes something – its ‘I ate my chili all’ – we’ve tried correcting this one many many times, but I still find it cute.
At dinner last night she told me ‘Good dinner mommy’ – awe. Made me all warm.
She calls the thermometer, and the sound monitors – something along the lines of ‘mom-eters’.
Oh and thanks to Sid the Science Kid and our project to make fruit juice pops – Amelia ate her first ice pop! Made with oj. It was funny – she didn’t want to try it but by demonstrating, Chris finally got her to lick it – then she just kept licking it and saying she liked it. Finally had to be taken away because it was melting -she wouldn’t bite into it but that doesn’t surprise me since its cold. (Neither of my kids like cold!)
Toddlers are fun!

“Good dinner, mommy” is my favorite. I think that is a reflection of you and Chris and how you’re polite and complimentary to each other. She picks up on that. That’s really sweet.
