Huh?

Molly's new favorite word is "huh?".  It's not so much a statement of misunderstanding as a statement of refusing to understand.  At times she can be a stonewall of "huhs?" and I have to admit, it's pretty obnoxious.  "Molly I need you to stop doing abc..."  "huh?" "stop doing abc." "huh?" "seriously, stop it" "huh?".  It doesn't always work, but the key to stopping the cycle is to turn is back on her.  "What are you supposed to stop doing?" "oh! abc!".  Hopefully this quirk passes quickly.
Of course I'll probably be seeing round two with this one.  Lately Maggie has been quite the talker as well moving on from "ohs" to include some "goos", "a-boos" and "pfttts".  It's too freaking cute.

Molly is still a little overly enthusiastic in her love for her sister.
We're still getting ready for Halloween.  We bought a Sesame Street carving kit and Molly put us to work. Of all the characters she could have picked, she picked the most difficult one, the Count.  In the end it Jonny made it work.  Molly was impressed anyhow.
One! One pumpkin!

  1. The girls are so adorable! Kate's new word of choice is"where?" She will ask where something is and we point to it and describe it and even if it is right in front of her she asks, "where?" Toddlers are so cute. Oh, also..she always asks Chris and I, "what are you doing?" and we respond and she will say, "Oh..." and finish the sentence with our response. I need to blog about this, it is too cute. Can't wait to see pics of Molly and Maggie in their halloween costumes!
