Her Own Words

I've written about Curly's love of talking (and talking and talking and talking). She speaks very well and can pronounce any word you ask her too (within reason of course). However they are some things our little Curly likes to say in her own special way. So in case you are around her any time soon, here are a few Curlyism's:

The Dark Nap : When she sleeps during the day is just a nap, but when she goes to bed at night it's The Dark Nap.

Tanados : Nachos. She loves nachos. You can pretty much throw anything on a chip and she'll eat it. She's been told dozens of times that they are called nachos. She prefers to say tanados.

Dippin' : Ketchup, Ranch dressing, Zac's Sauce or any other condiments that you dip food in. "Mommy, for lunch I want chicken nuggets with dippin'".

Hard Pants : Jeans. Curly loves dresses and skirts. That's all she ever wants to wear. Some occasions call for pants. When she finally accepts life's cruelty and decides she will wear pants she always announces "No Hard Pants!". Daddy and I can also get Curly to behave by telling her she will have to wear hard pants if she doesn't obey. It's kinda fun to watch her completely melt down over jeans. All her jeans are elastic waste and loose!

Soft Pants : Any pants that are not jeans.

I'm sure she will invent more phrases and I'll write another post about it when she does. Today we are headed to our first Easter Egg Hunt of the season. Three more this week. I'll post those pictures later this week.
