Mommy life: Little evening chat

Braska has a couple funny little things she tosses out in conversations occasionally, and I’ve had trouble catching them in spontaneous situations.  So I thought I’d at least get it on video so that I don’t forget it down the road.  And while I’m doing that, I might as well share, right?

If you’re around Braska in her regular settings,  you’ll know this isn’t her best example of clarity (at the end of a long day with no nap!), but it’s still cute. (Don’t miss the last bit. Priceless. Will be referred to when the teenage attitude shows up one day.)

***You may have noticed one phrase in the video… sparkling with asterisks.  This is something that showed up out of nowhere.  Anytime she is asked “why” something, she answers with that response.  And we’ve talked several times about what it means and how we don’t say that… but honestly we’re not 100% convinced she’s saying *that*.  And she seems to think it’s funny when we address it, so we’re opting to leave it alone for the most part. If she IS saying that, she’s not using it “appropriately” or with malice, so for now, we’re hoping it just fades away quietly.

  1. I love hearing her sweet little voice. And she doesn't sound hateful, but one wonders how she came up with it.

Mommy report: Chatty girl

Braska's been just loving her words lately. She's still signing some, mostly when we're in public or around strangers, but she's adding more words all the time. Many of her words are just attempts at the actual word, but that's where we all start, right?!? We're not saying that she'll be giving speeches next month, but we are very proud that she's become such a mimic and that she is loving using so many sounds. We practice often, just running through her words, signs, and tricks. She especially loves to chime in with videos of herself, so I've been working on compiling all her favorites for her to work with. As I was editing this, she was sitting here saying the words over and over. So funny to hear her talking to herself on the screen and loving it. So here's a peek at some clips from our practice session tonight. Some words are more obvious than others. They are all great attempts, though, and we'll celebrate that! Make an on-line

Nebraska meets Indiana

Braska's reaction to meeting the very kind Rory Feek and his beautiful daughter Indy.  I missed the part where Braska said Indy was sooooooooooo cute!  :) Our dream would be a photo showing the two most beautiful "states" together, right?!?  :)
