Nuse v. (as in, “I need to nuse that fork for eating my hot dog”)
pri-acy n. (as in, “I need pri-acy to go the potty”)
sumping n. (as in, “I need sumping to feed my dolls. They’re hungry!”)
nuffing n. (as in, “Rory, what was that crashing sound I heard?” “Nuffing, daddy.”)
What are they? All are special words that are a intrinsic part of Rory’s vernacular, really cute things that make us smile, even when they are part of a temper tantrum. Sadly, we are fully aware that they soon will fade from Rory’s vocabulary and become fodder for “Remember when….?” conversations about our little girl.
The first to go: wemonade. She can actually pronounce the letter “L” sometimes, a firm indicator that our Sweetness is growing up bit by bit. Also evidence of precociousness: her liberal use of the words dangewous, actuwally, and cawamity (the “L” hasn’t reared its ugly head in this word just yet).

That’s a shame about Flickr. Although I have all my photos on Picasa, I was actually thinking of moving over. Seems Flickr is more flexible with how you can display them. I can not stand the Picasa options available for slideshows and what not.

You know what - the above comment was meant to go to the next post. My bad. Your layout is confusing me.
