I've been meaning to post this for a while. Harper is starting to really talk in sentences and comes up with some interesting statements. Below are some gems.

A conversation at the dinner table:

Harper: Baby eat?

Me: Yes Harper, what does the baby eat?

Harper: Breakfast.

Me: Really? What else does the baby eat?

Harper: Oatmeal.

We work on Harper's letters a lot and she knows almost the entire alphabet. We've been teaching her a word for each letter, so she knows "A is for Apple, T is for Tiger, R is for RoRo," etc. She knows the "correct" word for every letter, with one exception, and she is absolutely determined that she is right!

Me: Harper, O is for what?

Harper: Pee pee.

Me: No, O is for Oscar (as in Oscar the Grouch). What is O for?

Harper: Pee pee.

Along those lines, we are also working on counting. She knows the numbers 1-10, but not necessarily in the correct order. We joke that she likes to count by prime numbers.

Me: Harper let's count. One... what comes after one?

Harper: twooooo, fiiivvee, niiine

Me: Good! What comes after five?

Harper: Pee pee.

Me: SIX comes after five. One, two, three, four, five, SIX. What comes after five?

Harper: Pee pee.
