turkey bottom ba-by poo

Topic #1: A friend gave Ben this very cute Thanksgiving outfit. It had a turkey on the front, a turkey on the bib, and even a turkey on the butt! He was a well dressed guy for the holiday.
Topic #2: This afternoon, I was upstairs on the computer and the rest of the family was downstairs while Jen made dinner. Lily came upstairs and told me, "ba-by PPPFFFTTTT poo. di-per chain." I said, "baby pooped and needs his diaper changed?" Lily said, "yeah." I told her I would be there in a minute. I took a little too long and she returned and told me, "ba-by poo moy." I said, "baby pooped more?" She said, "yeah."

I went downstairs and told Jen about our conversation (while I changed the baby), and she confirmed that she had sent her upstairs to relay this message. I think this is one of our longest, most successfully understood, complete English conversations, to date. It was exciting!

  1. Hey....awesome conversation! :-) Isn't it cool how much english they know and can use already in such a short time?! Jacob is doing well too, and they said he had a language delay! Not sure which language he is delayed in, but it sure isn't english! ;-)

  3. I can definitely relate to this one...I feel like I have a toddler who is learning to talk, I'm always trying to figure out what she's saying and then translating it for anyone who's around! Cute sleeper!
