We have two little chatterboxes at our house. Cora is talking constantly now, and sometimes, we even know what she is saying.
"I gotcha!"
"Here ya go"
"That's a big truck"
And, she started something new this week. She says "Yep" all the time.
It's cute when she answers a question like "Do you want some toast?" with "Yep!".
But it's hilarious when she is crying about something (which is frequent, since she's 20 months and trying to manage her emotions), and then we ask her a question like "Do you want lovey?" and the word that comes out of her mouth is "Yep!".
And Quinn chatters every chance she gets. She talks to us. She talks to her hands. She talks to the dangling duck on her gym. She talks to her rattle. She talks to the TV. She talks to Cora.
She loves Cora. And, Cora loves her.
A few out takes from the past couple of weeks.
Quinn looks bigger than Cora here! Cora is still healthy and growing, but the older she gets, the more petite she seems. I'm not sure why. At her last appointment she was still above 50% in every area.
This is Cora's T-shirt from London. It's from my friend Gordon and his wife Anne. They go international several times a year, and I often find a momento from their travels on my desk at work. We aren't wishing time away, but it will be nice when our kids are old enough to see things and we can start traveling more again. Until then... we'll happily display our London t-shirts and Italian bibs!
I love these pictures. Quinn looks so fascinated by her big sister. Plus, that happy little look reflects Quinn's constant pleased disposition. It's difficult to capture on camera.
