Where are you?

I heard her awake, talking in her crib. As I approach the door, I hear her calling out, "Momma, where are you?".

Doggy?

It was a rather cold night so we let Syla sleep in bed with us. Accompanying her was her cloth baby doll and a Snoopy stuffed animal. While we are getting ready to sleep, she says, "Doggy!", and hands him to me. When I try and pass him back she tells me, "No you, you Doggy!". Several times she asks for Doggy and when I try to return him to her she reminds me, "No you, you Doggy Mama!", as if she was checking to make sure I was still cuddling with him.

An Argument

Syla has renamed kitties as 'meows'. I was wearing a Puma jacket and Syla pointed to the Puma graphic and said, "Meow!" I agreed with her that they were a type of kitty, but told her their proper name is 'puma'. Pointing again she repeated, "Meow!". "Puma, Syla, puma", I say. This time louder than before she points and tells me, "Meow, meow!" I remind her again and now, poking the graphic, and raising her voice even more she replies, "Meow, meow, meow, meow!"

Eat

Sitting down eating breakfast, I finish and set down my spoon. From the other side of the table I hear, "Hey, eat!"
