No, Blue
Sophia is learning her colors, and she is doing fantastic.
She even knows gray. However, for about 3 weeks of her learning colors, everything was Red. I'd ask over and over and say, "What color is this?" Her response? "Uh, Red!"
Now new moms, this is where I went wrong. I would reply, "No, Blue...or No, Green".
So now when we ask her what color is her shirt, she'll say, "No, Blue." Or it's "No, Yeyyow." Each color has the word No in front of it these days. It's actually quite hysterical and oh so difficult to correct without saying No.
I know she'll be in pre-school one of these days saying her colors with the word No in front of them, as well as calling all pigs "Babe", all elephants "Horton" and all frogs "Ma na ma na". That last one is for the Muppets.
Man. She loves those Muppets.
"And what color is Kermit the Frog?"
"No, Green!"

Ours add "or no?" to the end of everything. And it's a result of me saying things like:
Cate, do you want apple apple juice or no?
It's still that magical "no" word, but it's pretty funny when they frame everything with a question that ends with "or no?"
You need to video this!
