Funny new words, and new role



Beebster is such a little comedienne.

She has SO many new words in her vocabulary these days, and they keep growing with each day. Her new word is SOWWY ("sorry!"). It's absolutely adorable to hear her say 'sorry' to Maddie or us if she thinks she did something that deserves an apology. She also says 'Huhhhhh?!" now whenever she wants to pretend she didn't hear what you just asked her to do. For example, I wanted them to get ready this morning so we could go out for a little while and I told Faith to go get her sandals. She was busy playing with her Dee, and just goes "Huhhhh?!" It's too funny. Dan is constantly asking her to say this over and over again-- well, that and her robot voice!

This big sister business is a piece of cake for Faith-y Q. It's crazy how well she has adjusted. The only times she has cried at all have been two nights when Maddie fell asleep well before Faith did, and then she was crying for "Momma! [and] Beeba!" I assume it's clearly due to the fact that Faith has a constant companion in her Dee to keep her busy and the focus off of Faith's new role as a big sister, but I also think it is largely due in part to her fascination with babies ever since she was little. Maddie was never so interested in babies the way Faith has always been. She has always just adored her Ella (the other Beeba!) and Tyler, and has always been so good with all babies. This has carried over with miss Abrie. Faith gets so happy when Beeba wakes up in the mornings, and is always wanting to hold her. She is constantly wanting to check Abrie to see if she pooped, and then wants to carry the diapers to the trash for me. It's great.
