Uh uh

Roxanne is learning to say "uh-oh," but she hasn't quite gotten there. Instead, she's been babbling the phrase "uh-uh" over and over again but with the same intonation as "uh-oh." As a result, I've been saying "uh-oh" constantly in order to try and coax her into getting it right. It occurs to me that it's kind of silly for me to do so, since I'm probably not helping her learn the proper context. Like, we don't say "uh-oh" while getting out of the car, or petting the dog or eating food off the floor. The last one might count, but not in a for real way. More in the mommy way, since I'm the one who knows that eating off the floor is "uh-oh." Roxanne seems to think that it's totally fine to eat off the floor. It seems like most new things that Roxanne picks up are super duper fun for about a week, and she does them constantly, then she goes on hiatus with it. I'm hoping that the constant raspberry blowing ends soon. It's kind of awful. The clapping is back in vogue, and that's awesome. I get an applause when I do things like open the box of Cheerios or clean up some toys. Then there are the facial expressions. She went through a phase of scrunchy faces mixed with snorting. Now she's sticking out her bottom jaw and showing her bottom teeth all the time. It's a really funny face that reminds me of an old man going "shucks." Roxanne is such a charmer.
