Talky-Talkerton

While we were in Utah last week, Skylar decided to start talking A LOT.

To quote my mom, "During the whole car ride home I don't think there was even a 5-minute section of time where she didn't talk."

Which means she talked quite a bit, seeing as it's a 9-hour ride and she didn't sleep at all.

Right now she is standing next to me saying, "Hey, Mommy. Hey, Mommy! Hey, Mommy!"
Me: "What's up, Sky?"
Sky: "It's broken!" (only she says "ee bo-ken." "Ee" replaces words like "it" and "they" and "in")
Me: "What's broken?"
Sky: "It's not broken." ("ee not bo-ken")

20 seconds later...

Sky: "Hey, Mommy!"
Me: "Yeah?"
Sky: "Youp! Sky youp ee bag!" (youp sounds like soap with a "y." Also, she pronounces her name "Die" which gets me a lot of weird looks in public)

Now she wants to put a bunch of Bath and Body Works soaps in a yellow bag so haul around the house. I gave her 2, which evidently is not enough because she is now standing next to me crying, saying, "Oh, no!" and asking for more youp for her bag.

It is amazing how she has suddenly decided to delve into sentences when before she was just using a couple of words at a time to communicate. Now she says things like, "Sky hop ee car!" while she plays in her Little Tikes car, or "Sky ready home" when she's done shopping. Or "Sky play Mia's house!" which she has been saying all day.

Guess it's time for a play date with Mia!
