Signature Phrases

The girls are talking up a storm lately. Ty pointed out last night that we can actually have conversations with them now. They each have a few phrases or sentences they use very often.

Grace likes to say, "Oh my gosh, ________." Fill in the blank with whatever would be exciting to a 20 month old. For example, "Oh my gosh, it's a park." Or, "Oh my gosh, look at the kids." Ty claims she picked up the phrase from me but I'm not convinced. She also says, "How cute!" when something catches her eye as we're shopping at Target or some other store.

Lily often (like 50+ times a day) says, "I need help." Ty taught the girls to say that months ago instead of whining and grunting when they needed help with something. Often it comes out as, "I need help guys." She also says, "No thank you so much," when I offer her something she doesn't want.

Here are some pictures Ty's sister Tina took last weekend when we were in San Luis Obispo. Thanks to Tina and her knack for recording memories, someday we'll have crystal clear photos and funny DVDs to look back on.
