halle’s favorite expressions

Standard

this post is otherwise known as “you know you have two year old when you *constantly* hear them shout  say the following”…

“i do it by myself”

“no”

“me first”

“no”

“you get it”

“no”

“i do it”

“no”

“mine, carter”

“i want it”

oh, and did i mention “no”? also notice the absence of common pleasantries such as “please” and “thank you”. thankfully, carter corrects her speaking all the time. he says, “halle, you have to say ‘thank you’!” or “halle, it’s “i want that, please!” which gives me hope that halle will learn better manners at some point soon!

look out below!
