Imagine this said with a vigorous head shake and a cute hi voice. It is hard not to smile even when Aidan is using her new favorite word over and over again in response to a request (usually from me, hummmm...). It goes like this:
Me: Aidan, let's change your diaper.
Aidan: No, no, no, noooooo.
Me: Aidan, can mommy put you to sleep tonight?
Aidan: Nooooo.
Me: Can mama put your to sleep tonight?
Aidan: Doesn't protest.
Me: Aidan, it is time to clean up.
Aidan: No, no, no.
You get the picture. At least she isn't whiney about it. Even with the extra "o" on the end of no. It is more of an elongation of the sound than a whine.
Mine you, she's only 17 months.
I've started saying "Yes, yes, yes" around her as much as possible in the hopes that she'll pick up that habit and discard the no habit. Anyone think that will work for me?
