Who put a quarter in you?

That's what my mom used to say to us when we were acting loopy. For those of you who don't know, my mom had her brain poked and prodded twice this week. So, this one's to make you laugh, mom! (Taken April 15.)

Viola's sounds
Submitted by jessica on September 4, 2009 - 10:11pm
Joe's parents gave us a fancy video camera for Christmas. It later got stolen and then replaced by our insurance company. We've been using it to take a ton of video but haven't been sharing much of it with the outside world. Viola now has a few proto-words in her repertoire, so it seems an appropriate time to demonstrate them with video.
Exhibit A: "dada" (note that Joe goes by "papa," so she is probably referring to the cultural movement of the early 20th century)
Exhibit B: "mama" (note that she said this one first and that I go by "mama")
Exhibit C: "bbbbrrrrr" She has been saying this one for months, but only when she's dissatisfied. This usually has the effect of making us laugh at her when she's mad, which only makes her madder. This clip has a happy ending, though.
