Ashton will repeat things over and over. I don't know if this is a normal toddler stage, or if I should have him committed. I don't remember the other kids doing this. ie: "want cookie mom mom, want cookie. mom mom, want cookie,cookie mom mom. want cookie mom mom, mom mom cookie..." annoyed yet? welcome to my life.

I don't think I've ever heard a solo Eateateat or More momo. He still signs them when he says them. It's almost like spamming.

My ds just turned two and does it alllll the time. So does the 2 year old I babysit. Normal I assume and very annoying but what can you do. I just say what he says so he knows I acknowledged it and that helps

I can't wait for this stage to end. He's really big into making sure we know that there is a catcatcatcatcatcatcatcat or blocksblocksblocksblockblocks.

I have the following conversation every day - and it's made it clear to me that she thinks I should work more and we should get a dog: 
Amy puppy?  
Amy here? 
Wobert here? 
Amy puppy here? 
Amy at work?  
Wobert at work?
Daddy at work?
Then she sighs and looks longingly out the window and says it over. And over. And over. And over.

 

(Amy and Robert are our friends, btw).
