Words Grace does not say nor sign:
Mommy
In fact, she enjoys teasing me by acting as though she's going to say it and then switching to something else - often "papa". When you ask her "Where's Mommy?", she even signs "Daddy".
It's a riot. Really.
Here's the little Buster in action:
She sure is lucky she's cute. Happy Mother's Day to my fellow mamas.

HAPPY MOTHER'S DAY JENNI!!!!! Thank you for all the smiles you given me through Graceland! Love you guys like crazy! xoxoxoxoxoxo
ReplyDeleteDon't worry Jenni, as soon as Sadie says "mom"or Mommy", Grace will HAVE to say it too! That's just how sisters are! Happy Mother's Day to you! Was so happy to get to see (and be licked by Grace last weekend! She is adorable!
ReplyDeleteLove, love, love this pic of you and little Buster. Love. xoxo
ReplyDeleteTake heart. Liddy is a talker. Has been almost since the say she was born. After months of constant streams of dada, I finally started hearing mama. So exciting. Then it totally disappeared. The little heathen was even saying Daddy instead of dada, still without a peep about her mama. Then lo and behold, mama came....in droves. lol :)
ReplyDeleteGracer is getting soooo big!
Oh my goodness, best entry ever. Ha! Jen, I can just hear you saying it... Poor mama! She IS a buster! She knows exactly what she's up to. Little stinker. :)
ReplyDeleteAnd ... best pic ever as well- the last one of the two of you. Gorgeous smiles, girls!!
