My Little Parrot - A Rude Awakening

We all know kids mirror their parents.  Their words, their actions, their emotions.  And we have found ourselves surprised at things that come out of Owen's mouth that are a direct copy of things we have said out loud either to him or to others.  Usually it's a reminder to watch what we say, because he doesn't miss a beat. 

Like my previous post where I felt like I needed to write down cute little Owenese words and phrases before he stopped saying them, now I feel like I should write down funny phrases that he says that I know are a direct copy of things we say to him.  Even if I'm not exactly proud of myself.

- Playing on our new cordless phone and shaking his finger at me: "Just a second, I'm on the phone."

- Taking the computer mouse out of my hand: "Let me check something real quick."

- At a traffic light behind a car: "Goooooooooooo! Arghhhhhhh."

- Calling me from upstairs: "Hey Babe!  Baaayyyyyyyaaaaabe!  Hey Babe, come upstairs!"

To be continued...
