Cooking Up Toddler Vocab

My sweet little helper borrowed my apron to bake brownies with me.


Later, she demonstrated she can whip up toddler vocabulary in a jiffy.

Me: (trying to remove some dangerous object from the toddler's tiny, mighty grasp) No. Alexandra, don't do that.  No. (muttering) I swear the child doesn't know the meaning of the word.
Alexandra: (breaks into a sprint down the hallway)
Me: Alexandra, come here, please.
Alexandra: (calling out over her shoulder with a giggle) No!

  1. She is so cute! Isn't it amazing how "no" quickly becomes one of their favorite words?

    1. Thanks and yes. Her brother tells her no so often I'm surprised she doesn't say it more!

    1. On days like this, I just have to remind myself, it's not whether you win or lose, it's how you play the game.;)
