Funny Speak

Penelope and Zahra have been saying some funny things lately.

 Their favorite new word is "also". As in, "me also" instead of "me too."
When they really want to be clear, they say, "me too also."
We hear that quite a bit these days.
I guess when you're a twin and a second child you need to assert yourself strongly.

They also love everything "so much." As in, "Me love X so much." Zahra especially uses this phrase. Things Zahra has mentioned she loves so much in the last week include: Penelope, Quinn, Mike (from Monster's Inc), pizza, mango, going upstairs, playing outside, and too many more to count. 

And then there's Penelope's morning talk. She wakes up her sister (and the rest of us) every morning when the light first starts showing. As we're in the upper midwest, these days the light is showing earlier than we'd like.
First, Penelope starts screaming "ZAZA - WAKE UP!!!!" Then when she's succeeded in rousing her poor sister, she typically launches into a top-of-her lungs rendition of Old MacDonald.
Poor Zahra - is it any wonder she passes out on the couch every afternoon?

Funny girls.

In other news, Z & P got their first pedicures at a salon this week.

And Zahra got her first professional haircut. Sorry - I can't figure out how to rotate the photo!
