"Buu" and "Ducky"...

...are her two new words that mean 'book' and 'yucky' respectively. The order that they learn words in is so funny because it's totally reflective of their surroundings. Yucky is what we scream at her as she dives hands first into the litter boxes. Now she points to the litter box and shakes her head 'no' and says, "Ducky!" She learned "ole" (hole) so quickly which makes me laugh because it's indicative of the quality of the t-shirts that I wear to bed. I never flinched at the holes in my tattered, old t-shirts until my own kid pointed out to me that I could be mistaken for a homeless person.

Her words are coming so fast now. She's repeating so many words correctly, but she just hasn't incorporated them into her daily vocabulary. Because Callie had been so obsessed with balloons lately, we decided to buy each of them one yesterday. Wyatt, of course, almost crapped in his pants because the freaking things scared him half to death. Such a little wimp. On the other hand, Callie's eyes almost popped out of their sockets like all her dreams had come true when I handed her the balloon. It was short lived though because in true Callie-form, she tried to eat it and it popped.

Yesterday, we went to feed the ducks. The kids didn't understand throwing food to the ducks. When I handed them some bread to throw, they just shoveled it in their faces. They really enjoyed seeing the ducks though. They screamed and laughed so excitedly that it gave me chills. I love watching them discover new things.

Oh! We stopped by Chick-Fil-A while we were out shopping and we learned that both kids can drink out of straws now! I was so excited! I had a huge lemonade that the kids drank almost entirely themselves. We could tell that they were also excited to drink out of straws. It was really cute!

Wyatt's o-face because he saw birds flying in the sky. This is the face that both kids make when something earth-shattering (like the house phone ringing) happens.
