Something in Your Car

Sydney has been obsessed with these little sour candy type things lately, but has absolutely no idea what to call them.  Jason always seems to keep some in his car, and Sydney always wants one.  So, it in the beginning, we would get in the car, start driving, and Sydney would randomly say, "can I have one?"  And we had no clue what she was talking about.  We would tell her that she had to tell us what she wants and to use her words and all of that type of stuff.  So, she said, "I want something in your car".  We eventually figured out that she wanted one of those sour candies.  And somehow, a few months later, she still calls them "something in your car".  She'll say, "mommy, can I have something in your car?" (yeah, I have to buy them now too).  I'm currently out of them, so today she says, "mommy, you really need to buy more somethings in your car."  And the funniest part is, that in that last couple of weeks, Lizzy started paying attention to these little candies, and what do you think she calls them?  That's right!  Although, she doesn't say it so perfectly!  She just says, "Mommy, something in car, something in car, something in car"....she doesn't stop until you give her one!

Other cute Lizzy phrases:

• "Bye, see ya!"
• When we tell her that we love her she says, "oh, that's nice".  She usually says, "Sydney, I wuv woo."  And then Syney tells her that she loves her too, and then she says, "oh, that's nice."
• If someone his sitting in a spot that she was previously sitting in, she says, "that's MY sit down."
• If we have company over and another child borrows her highchair, she says, "that's MY eats" (since that's where she eats...she is really quite clever)
• If we get water in her eyes in the bathtub, she always wants a towel to wipe her eyes.  So now, everytime she sees a towel, she says, "that's MY eyes" (since she uses it to wipe her eyes).

I could go on and on...basically she thinks everything is hers.  I made Jason a ham and cheese omelet today for dinner and she was almost crying to the point of tears as I made it..."that's MY ham,", "that's MY cheese"

But her favorite phrase is (and I'm almost positive Jason taught her this): "Mommy, you poopin'?"  Everyday when I drive her to daycare, she just thinks she is so hilarious.  She asks me if "I'm poopin'" in this really funny voice and then cracks up laughing.  And then she lists all of the people she knows and asks if they are pooping too.  This has Jason written all over it!
