If imitation is

the sincerest form of flattery, than Naomi is doing some serious flattering lately. To everyone. Some of the cutest are when we are saying goodbye to people and her versions of "See you soon!" and "Goodbye!" "Drive carefully!" "I love you!" all tumble out all over themselves. The drive carefully one is especially funny if we're the ones who are going to be driving away. :)

A while back Naomi realized that when I nurse her I always get a burp cloth first, and often when she asked to nurse I would say, "I need to get a burp cloth." Well, this wasn't difficult for her to solve, so now when she wants to nurse, *she* goes to get the burpcloth -- or "buppoff," in Naomese -- and follows me around with it. Now she's taken to "nursing" her stuffed animals and dolls, and if she decides they need to nurse, she'll tell me earnestly, "Nuss...buppoff," and go find a burp cloth, then sit on the couch and "nuss" the baby.

Good grief, how did I keep myself entertained before children?
