I Am Not It

"No,no,no,no,no,no,no.." that is our 2 year old, Megan's, favorite saying. It usually accompanies a request from me to do something like, get her dressed, change her diaper, feed her dinner...well anything we need to do that is not exactly what she has her mind set to do at that moment actually. Its not my favorite saying, but it is coming along with some other new and unique phrases that are actually quite funny. Her sister has taught her the eenie, meanie, miney, moe game which to her rendition goes something like this "Eenie, menie, miney, moe...catch by its toe and you are not it. You are not it mommy!" I'm never 'it' because she has so much fun saying "you are not it mommy" with such pride. She is also enjoying "ta da!" which is pretty much used for any accomplishment from finding her shoes to eating her breakfast. "TA DA!" And of course the "really" addition. "Are you done Megan?" "Yes I really am done mommy" or when she ripped her fruit chews package in half and was looking at it perplexed and said "its really 2 mommy". I don't know where the "really" came from but it is a significant part of her vocabulary and when she puts "really" in the sentence I know its a done deal.
