In the Afternoon--Post-Nap Twin Talk

Every now and then I catch a conversation the twins have as they wake up from their mid-day nap.  They sleep in cribs right next to each other so they have each other as company in their room.  This is what I heard one day last week through the baby monitor.

A:  (waking up, humming, singing the alphabet, making other soft noises)

And then finally I could hear E moan and grunt and A become suddenly social.

A:  Hi, E.  'Wake?
E:  Yes.  Stinky diaper.
A:  Stinky diaper!  Yucky!

This went on for a while.

E:  Sunny day.  Push wagon.  (This is his most requested afternoon activity on a sunny day.)
A:  (Looking out the window which is closest to her bed.)  No, "yainy" day.
E:  No!  Sunny day!  Push wagon!
A:  "Yainy"  day.
E:  No!  Sunny day!
A:  Jump!  E and Mimi!

Succesfully distracting him from the disappointing news of bad weather, A started the bed-rumping routine they enjoy on happier days.

Here's an unrelated photo of A washing E's hands.  On this particular day she lead him to the sink in the bathroom explaining to him "Sticky hands.  Wash hands."  She mothers him in the cutest ways and he normally tolerates it well.
