2.19.19 - Kid Snippets - Clara Elephant, Jane loves "no"

I give Clara a plate of chips with chicken and melted cheese.
Clara: YES! Thank you, Mom!
Me: You are welcome, Clara.
Clara: Mommy, say 'You're welcome Clara Elephant!'

Jane likes to sit in my lap while she plays with puzzles or flash cards or other toys. But if I kiss her, rub her back, cuddle her, and sometimes even if I look at her, she'll go "Nooooo!" She wants to sit in my lap but also wants to pretend I'm not there.

Jane's favorite word is "no." Most of the time if you ask her anything that sounds like a question, she just says "no." She's also very good at shaking her head no. Recently she's started trying to say "yes" and nod, and she is pretty bad at it. Her nod is like a weird wobble where she moves her head in a circle. I love it.

This morning I went to get the girls and they were both already awake.
Me: Good morning! Jane can you say "Good morning, Clara"?
Jane: Bah bah Airwa!
Clara: Mommy, no. Say "Good morning Clara Elephant!"
Me: Good morning, Clara Elephant. Clara, can you say "Good morning Jane"?
Clara: Mommy! No! Good morning Jane Elephant!
