Words and Cuteness

Brinlee is learning how to say all sorts of words. Of course she has been able to say some for quite a while now...Mama, Dada, dog (and then proceeds to bark for you), "eyes" as she points at her babies eyes....so cute! And papa, although she refuses to say it anymore. figures.

She's sort of more into babbling than talking so we get really excited when she decides maybe she should speak our language. Some of her more recent words are: duck, buh bye, Nana, toys, more (which actually sounds more like mmm mmm while frantically doing the sign for more)...

 And our new favorite..."up". It's the most clear and most used around here and she just learned it a few days ago. And boy did she figure out how to milk it quickly. She uses it when we go on the other side of the gate, when we go on the other side of the couches that she can't get to, when we put her in her high chair, when I lay her down in her crib (it's pretty cute I hear her say it on the monitor but she doesn't cry or even sit up), and she loves to use it just whenever we are not holding her.

Her favorite use of the word...

if you sit down, anywhere, she will go find a book throw it on your lap...

 Look at you with the cutest little face and say "up!" 

she will continue using said word until you pick her up and read her the book.

It is SO cute, irresistible, and funny. And a tiny tiny bit annoying at times.

 And here is some cuteness for your enjoyment.

  I pushed her around in this box and then got tired and just stopped and left her to see what she would do. And she just sat there and loved it.

 Didn't even notice I was around taking pictures of her.

And then I said "Brinlee" and this is what I got.

Adorable as ever. 

Right after the picture she looked away and continued on with whatever she thought was so fun, just sitting in that box. And of course when she finally got bored of being in there she just said UP! She knows how to work us already.
