Amelia's one-liners

Amelia's speech is improving incredibly fast these days, and every once in a while she says something that is especially funny - maybe because it's coming from a cute 2-year-old.

For example, only a moment ago Amelia picked up her newest stuffed toy cow and said, "It's a nice toy." Other funny comments she makes that are similar are, "Good stuff" (when she eats or drinks something she likes...I think she got this from grandma S.) and "That was a great story."

A couple of days ago, when walking home from Starbuck's I spotted a squirrel. Once I pointed the critter out to Amelia she became excited and said, rather matter-of-factly "Let's go get it." She chased that squirrel around for several minutes, but somehow he was always just out of reach.

As I was holding Diana the other day Amelia came up behind her and started stroking her hair (which she often does). I looked at Diana and said, "That's your sister, Amelia" to which Amelia promptly retorted, "No, that's Diana."

A lot of fun and silliness takes place around here between the crazy moments. Days are passing really quickly, but I will still try to document the fun as best I can.
