Avrie-isms

  • Avrie likes to call Nolan "Nolan Nels Annerson" when she's mad at him. I asked her if she could say her full name. Her response: "Avwie Wose Annerson you get over here WIGHT NOW". Yikes!!
  • We have a bust of George Washington. Avrie likes to call him Curious George. I corrected her today and told her it was George WASHINGTON. A few minutes later she is talking to him and calling him George Washingmachine. Too hilarious.
  • She loves playing "family". She dictates who is who. This week we've been: Arthur/DW/Arthur's Mommy, Dora/Boots/Swiper, Megan/Ryan/Brendan/Amy, Pooh/Piglet/Tigger. Usually Cole gets left out...but she decided he could play Brendan just fine. If I make a mistake and call her Avrie she's not too happy. "NO, I Dora/DW/Megan/Piglet."
  • We've had great success with potty training. She has stayed dry at night for a week now and accidents are becoming fewer and far between. Yay!
