Skittles has coined the phrase, "Taste the Rainbow." I am hereby claiming, "Hear the Rainbow." For the past 2 weeks, that is exactly what Matt and I have been doing... Hearing every single color of the rainbow. Ava points at everything, from cars in the street, to crumbs on the floor, and tells us what color(s) she sees.
It is hard to tell from the following picture, but the top of Ava's ice cream cone is covered in M&Ms. I'm sure you can imagine the number of times she listed the color of every M&M before putting them in her mouth.
As if hearing Ava's sweet voice say all of the colors in ROY G BIV isn't cute enough, hearing her say them in her own way is just stinkin' adorable.
Red = Ed
Orange = Uhn-jinge
Yellow = Uhn-no
Green = Geen
Blue = Boo
Purple = Puh-pull
Black = Back
Brown = Bown
White = Ite
You can be certain that after eating all of the colorful coated candies, my mildly OCD child let me know that she was not a fan of the sticky residue on her hand by lifting it to the camera and saying, "Mess."
On another rainbow related note.... Ava has been using the big girl potty and the other night she did a #1 and #2 in the same sitting. Her reward, 2 M&Ms. We asked her what colors she wanted and she enthusiastically chose, "geen, uhn-jinge." What a big girl!
