More Bella-isms

Since we still can't post pictures, I'll tell a few more of Bella's stories.

Today we were inside the grocery store. The important word in that sentence is "inside". Bella heard a dog barking somewhere way out in the parking lot, and she said, "Coocoo! Come in!" and she slapped her leg a few times. I guess she's seen us call Scooter inside a few times at my parents' house.

Whenever we drive by the hospital, Bella says "Mama!" which is code for "Grandma". She wants to go see Grandma at the hospital. Silly girl.

Bella loves to put clothes on. If she sees you carrying around one of her shirts or sweaters, she'll run up to you, yank on her shirt, and yell "OFF!", because (obviously) she wants to put on the shirt that you're holding. Obviously.

Also, Bella now knows sign language. I got her a book of baby sign language strictly for the pictures of babies in it (Bella loves to look at pictures of babies). Last night, Andrew decided to try it out, and in fifteen minutes, Bella had the book down. It was only 8 or so signs, but still, I think that's pretty good. It's really cute to see her sign "sleepy".

Last night, we were in Office Depot and they were playing something a little more upbeat than the normal Muzak over the speakers. I guess Andrew was doing the "boom-tsch" thing, because Bella started doing it too. All the way home. Our little rapper in the back seat.
