Natalie is the cutest girl ever! She is so smart I can hardly stand it. She throws out words like she's been talking for years. I don't know where she comes up with these things. She definitely keeps us on our toes. Her two favorite words at the moment are No and Why. Drives me crazy! An example of a No conversation:
Natalie: Mommy I'm hungry.
Me: Okay Natalie, I'll make you some lunch.
Natalie: No! I want dinner.
Me: But it's not dinner time, it's lunch time.
Natalie: No! I want dinner.
Me: Well, what would you like to eat...Mac and Cheese?
Natalie: No
Me: Peanut Butter and Jelly?
Natalie: No
Me: Hard boiled egg?
Natalie: No...I want noodles.
Me: So you want Mac and Cheese?
Natalie: Yes, Mac and Cheese!

Totally exhausting. I won't even go into the why questions. Those last forever...but why Mommy? AAGGHH!! Other than those crazy words, I really love the stage Natalie is in right now. She has such a great imagination. She loves taking care of her sister. Heidi doesn't always appreciate that though. :) I can have complete conversations with her and she understands what I'm saying. It's so great. I love it too when I'm trying to talk to Heidi and Natalie acts like the interpreter. I'm hoping that Heidi will be catching up soon with all the words. It'd make life a whole lot easier!
