10 Best Things My Toddler Has Said to Me

Since children grow so fast, I wanted to capture the 10 best things my toddler – now 22 months old almost 23 months old – has said to me this past year that has warmed my heart and still does every time I hear them.

1.  “Ma Ma”

2.  “Da Da”

3.  “Wuve you.” (Love You) This warms my heart every time I hear this, which I usually hear several times a day.

4.  “Nite Nite” Both Brett and I love to hear this. C2 usually says this when he is going to bed and waves good night.

5.  “Da Da race, Ma Ma Race” While Brett was racing the Ironman Cozumel in November 2011, C2 would lay in bed when he didn’t want to go to sleep and talk to himself for an hour about racing.

6.  “Go fast” C2 loves to run, so when he runs he says “Go fast”.

7.  “Brovers” (Brothers) Referring to our two lovable labs Parker and Cole who we refer to as “The Boys” or his brothers. C2 does not recognize that his brothers are dogs.

8.  “Yeah, did it” He usually claps and cheers for himself after he accomplishes something like jumping off a stair or his interpretation of jumping.

9.  “Go, Go, Go” C2 loves to play chase and when you run after him, he yells “Go, Go, Go”.

"Oh, no"

10.  “Oh, no” When C2 was 15 ½ months our Au Pair started teaching him when he drop something to put his hands on his head and go “oh, no”.

Although, as we know,  toddlers can be challenging, but I think the good times, toddler hugs and kisses outweigh any of toddlers trying times.
