Other things Rose says
Instead of saying/screaming "No!" like other 2-ish toddlers, Rose has an expansive vocabulary of negation. Lately we get a lot of "No any that, no any that!" Or "No any this!", or "No any go sleep!".
She will occasionally go all lolcat, i.e. "I can't have to go pee!" Also in the cat vain, she says "Look! I see Jake! Oh Jake, he's so kyoot!" Seriously, she says kyoot. Or kuh-yoot. While yanking on his tail with both hands or trying to pick him up by his ears. Jake allows this. Jake is a very enlightened cat person.
and best of all, she will say "x is too big" to describe an object in any one of a dozen failure modes. Food too hot? "Dese nuggets are too big." Can't buckle velcro shoes? "Shoes are too big." Can't find blanket? "Dis blank is too big!" (For Rose, Calvin has a "blankely" but she has a "blank.") All the water running out of her bathtub down the drain? "Blath is too big!" and sometimes all of the above in combination, "I can't havta go pee, it's too big! No any potty!"
I must point out that Rose is by FAR the most potty trained at the youngest age of any of our kids. But still, she's two. you gotta stay on top of the situation, and it's a frequent topic of discussion.
Every direction is "upstairs." but she has to "hold onna wailing"!
and most every book is either "Read go dog go!" or "read Goonite moon!" even when she's holding neither of those two books.
I'll post more of these later when I can remember. Must capture the cute!

These days she's using words like "vortex" correctly. ;-p
