Brynn Language

As we meet with friends and family over the holidays, I thought it would only be fair to give you a heads up on Brynn's own little language. She is becoming quite chatty, and is VERY determined for you to understand her. When she says something, it is often not enough for you to just reply, "Yes, you're right." She wants you to repeat what she has said, just to be sure you understood. This can be difficult, because a lot of her words are still gibberish. But here are a few of the important ones.

Moose!: Move...this is one to take seriously. :)

Yie-yun: Lion...her beloved stuffed animal.

Ci-we-wa: Cinderella...If she says this to you with a pen in her hand, it means she wants you to draw Cinderella. Same thing applies to all other Disney characters you can pick up on. Oh! And "oo-uh-suh" is Ursula.

Can...tee!: Candy...she says this one unfortunately often.

Hweep: Sleep...she's tired.

Tantse: Dance...you might also know she wants to dance with you if she says "I know" (as in "I know you, I walked with you once upon a dream") or "Sha-ya-ya-ya-ya" (As in "Sha-la-la-la, Kiss the girl" from Ariel).

Tears: Upstairs or downstairs...she just wants to go with you to the other floor.

Sump: Some. Probably you are eating something in front of her and she wants it. Also, chapstick.

Oss: Off. Generally she is referring to her shoes, but sometimes she'll start from there and then ask you to take "oss" every article of clothing she's wearing until she is totally naked. I usually do it for her cause I think it's cute. :)

High-high: High five.

Waaaaaaaar: Water.

Pinket: Blanket...not one in particular, blankets are just her new favorite thing to play with.

Kers or Papers: Color or papers...means she wants to draw, her other favorite thing to do.

Bop-bop:...She wants to watch High School Musical (she is referring to the song, "Bop to the top").

Hope this helps!

That is so stinking cute! remember when I told you this is my favorite stage? THAT's WHY! The talking...so darling. YOu definitely should write down every word you can think of that she says, because when she's six, she'll ask you to tell her about when she was little, and she'll think it's really adorable to try to imitate her 2-year-old self.
Oh, and HAPPY BIRTHDAY Brynnie Pie!!
