Top 10 Adorable Lexi-isms - 21.5 Months

1.) When you ask her a question and she doesn't know the answer she looks at you with an inquisitive face and says "ummm?".

2.) She totes her cousin Emily's photo around with her kissing it and saying "Emmie".

3.) She asks to dance and goes to her boombox to turn on the music and begins swinging her arms and twirling about.

4.) Yesterday she came into the kitchen to ask for a wipe. I gave her one and then quietly watched to see what she was going to do with it...only to discover that she went into the living room to try to wipe up her pee pee accident off the floor (yesterday we were working on potty training so we let her go commando).

5.) She counts in Spanish.

6.) The other day when I was at the store I sneezed and Lexi, unprovoked, looked at me and said "bless you". It melted my heart.

7.) A few nights ago I was bringing Lexi downstairs after her bath. She heard that daddy was watching TV. I asked her "what do you think daddy is doing?" and her immediate response was "HOCKEY!". Seth and I were both astounded because he rarely watches hockey when she's awake and we've never really told her what it is. She just picked up on it all by herself!

8.) When you tell her she's a good dancer she says "thank you!".

9.) She likes watching football with daddy and belly laughs when the players get tackled and shouts out "more owies".

10.) Lexi has learned some mean stall tactics when it comes to night night time. Every night when it's time to go to bed, Seth and I ask her "what time is it?". And until just recently she would immediately chime in "night night time" and would start heading upstairs. Lately, she's been trying to stall by suggesting activities to do other than night night. She's start with "play?", then she'll move to "dance?", then she'll say "book?", then she'll act like she's hungry. It's really hilarious how she's already learning how to manipulate and she's not even two! We've got a precocious one on our hands I'm afraid.
