The One With The Translations
I haven't written much in the last week, not much is going on around here out of the ordinary. The next few weeks will be busier though, so I'm sure there will be more interesting stories to tell. However, I wanted to take the opportunity to do something that I have wanted to do for a while. To be honest, I'm stealing an idea from Emily that she did on her blog a while back, I thought it was so cute that I wanted to do the same. Shana is growing constantly and so is her vocabulary. She pretty much can repeat any word that you ask her to, however she has her own words that she uses on a regular basis. Some of you see her at church, or talk to her on the phone, or babysit her or will see her soon and would like to know what she is talking about . . . . well, below is a list that you can turn to for translations on all of Shana's words. Hope this is helpful!Shana's Words Translation

Haha...that is so sweet! I love the way Zayne mimics things we say - then there are times I'm like, "Jason, look what you've done! Now people will wonder what we talk about at home!!" Haha...it's so fun to watch their vocab. expanding and understanding growing!
Wasn't Tuesday BEAUTIFUL! I was in a tank top and shorts all day and it was HOT!! Wow...my old home is still covered in snow.
