Burley's Vocabulary

Betsy and I found a list that she had made of all of the words that Hattie said when she was 18 months old. She only included words that she would randomly say on her own (not just repeating something once). It was really cute to read & remember when she was that age, so I decided to write down Burley's words.
It was harder than I thought! He says 92 words, 25 two, three & four word sentences (Who is it? Whatcha doin? Here you go! things like that), and sings 8 songs (The best ones are Twinkle, Twinkle & the ABC's). I basically followed him around with the paper & wrote down what he said. =) It'll be fun to look back on when he's speaking in full sentences and remember how little he was!

I'm bored... so I'm doing those dumb quizzes




You Are a Natural Beauty!



You're the kind of beauty that every guy dreams about...

One that looks good in the morning - without a stich of makeup

That's doesn't mean you're a total hippie chic though

You have style, but for you, style is effortless







You Are Trinity



"Touch me and that hand will never touch anything again."


That one's funny b/c that's so me!!! I think I've said something along those lines.




You Are 76% Burned Out



You are very burned out.

You need a huge break from your responsibilities, starting as soon as possible.

And you need this time to reevaluate what you really want out of your life.

Because you're working hard and going no where... and that would burn anyone out!







You Are An INFJ



The Protector



You live your life with integrity, originality, vision, and creativity.

Independent and stubborn, you rarely stray from your vision - no matter what it is.

You are an excellent listener, with almost infinite patience.

You have complex, deep feelings, and you take great care to express them.



In love, you truly see relationships as an opportunity to connect and grow.

You enjoy relationships as long as they are improving and changing. You can't stand stagnation.



At work, you stay motivated and happy... as long as you are working toward a dream you support.

You would make a great photographer, alternative medicine guru, or teacher.



How you see yourself: Hardworking, ethical, and helpful



When other people don't get you, they see you as: Manipulative, weak, and unstable






You Act Like You Are 27 Years Old



You are a twentysomething at heart. You feel like an adult, and you're optimistic about life.

You feel excited about what's to come... love, work, and new experiences.



You're still figuring out your place in the world and how you want your life to shape up.

The world is full of possibilities, and you can't wait to explore many of them.






You Are Jennifer Aniston



Girl next door with a free spirit.

You're low key and naturally sexy.

Sweet and approachable, people are attracted to your upbeat attitude.

And even when life doesn't go your way, you always eventually turn things around.


That one's pretty much a no-brainer!!! haha

In case you haven't noticed, the story of Noah is very compelling!!!

Shhhhhhh....





Uncle Michael & Aunt JuJu like to sneak treats (goey, sticky, sweet, chocolate, cookies, candy, etc...)to Burley while I'm not looking. I never give him anything like that because I am allergic to sticky. Anything sticky grosses me out, including sticky baby. Michael taught Burley to say "shhhhh" as in "don't tell mommy what you just ate or who gave it to you". So naturally, Burley calls anything sweet "shhh". This day I came in and it was pretty obvious that Burley had eaten something "shhh". In some of the pictures he's actually looking over at the door saying, "shhhhhh" to Uncle Michael. I had a great time cleaning him up.

**On a side note, Mandy recommended the OxyClean laundry spray for stains & it really pulled through on this shirt! There was no evidence of chocolate left!

Mothers Day

Flowers were delivered to me for Mothers Day "From Burley". They mysteriously had Dad & Pati's phone # on the delivery slip. Thanks to Dad & Pati for the Mothers Day gift! The BEAUTIFUL paper roses were my gift from Hattie.
