In all of my child-related reference books it says that a 2 year old "may be able to speak in 2-3 word sentences." Well, Addison does that and more! I caught a little clip of her spouting out a 5 word sentence. I'll set up the situation for you:
I was sitting in the glider in the nursery feeding Isla when Addison grabbed the phone and joined us. She began pushing buttons and pretending to talk, like she always does. She pressed the "talk" button, then "speaker" and it was off the hook long enough to start beep, beep, beeping pretty loudly. She looked at me with her big eyes and an open mouth and started laughing. I hit the off button and put the phone down on the footstool. What came next is below...
What she's saying is "This button scared me now", referring to the yellow "speaker" button. Ha! I was cracking up, so of course she kept repeating herself. It's just another part of her new dramatics of exploring the emotion of fear. She's really into acting scared of random, non-scary things. But 5 words is the most we've heard from her so far. Pretty cool!
