In order to join an adult conversation, my 2 yr old niece says, "Or"
for instance, My sister will ask me, "Would you like some soup?" Before I can answer my niece will say, "Or..." She will then try to think of something else to say. "Or..." she repeats, "Would you like milky?"

My niece has a fall back line for when she can't think of something to say. "Or... We can go to the water-slide?" They had great adventures at an indoor water-slide and she loves to talk about it..

Today my mom is taking my niece and nephew to a pirate ship docked in Newburgh. I am gonna try to go too..

Enjoy the day!

1. That will be a great addition to her repertoire...
"Or....we can go on a pirate ship?"

Very cute! :rofl:


(One of my nephews started almost all of his sentences with "Actually..." at about that age. Hilarious.)

3. We taught my daughter to say "excuse me" -- she thought that meant
that whenever she said "excuse me", we should stop talking and listen to her!

5. My 4 year old nephew does the same thing!
I think he is shocked when we stop talking and listen to him..

4. Give her a new one. Anytime someone asks a question beginning with "Where is",...
...interject with "If it was up your ass you would know".

Well, you might want to wait until she's three for that.
