this little girl is giving us some trouble. she has learned "mm hmm" (affirmative) and "uh uh" (negative) and their respective meanings recently. on the one hand, it is handy because it is clear what she wants, and does not want. on the other hand, now that she knows she can have an opinion, we have opened the door into negotiations. and since that is where her means of discernible verbal communications end, these negotiations have been quite confusing and comical. I ask if she would like something to eat. I get a "mm hmm." i then proceed to ask if she would like one thing after the next until I guess right. each wrong answer gets me an "uh uh!" and scream and a run-around tantrum. the next goal is to learn all the words for her favorite foods and beverages. obviously.
although, I can't stay frustrated long with this one. as soon as I get it right I get a giant grin, a "peese!" and "bank oo." and she is off with a giggle of joy to have finally gotten her prize.

OH my goodness, "Holla" sounds like they have VERY similar little personalities, and he makes that same little cheesy grin. Too cute!
