Megan phrases

A few phrases that give us a kick:

It's lossing.
- This is Megan's hybrid between "missing" and "lost." After several months in the vernacular, usage is finally dwindling a bit. But just this evening Butter Cookie (her doll) was "lossing." Don't worry, she was just under the bed!

A big bit.
- This is the obvious opposite to "a little bit." The conversation usually goes something like, "I'll put a little bit of toothpaste on your brush." ... "I want a big bit."

A different something else.
- Megan quickly bores of what she has and frequently asks for "something else," and is often not more specific than this. If she doesn't like what we hand her, she lets us know she wants "a different something else." This usually applies when I am pulling potential play items out of one of our adult drawers. Megan doesn't know what else might accompany the rolling pin and cookie cutters in the baking drawer, but she'll keep asking till she finds out or gets something really good out of the deal!

****
Megan loves bubbles. We blow them till we are light headed but she still wants more. One day Megan asked to do bubbles: "want to do bubbles."

We were getting set to watch a football game and thought that'd be a good time to indulge Megan: "we'll do bubbles when we watch football."

Without missing a beat, Megan responded,"I want to watch football."
