Good grief...the last thing I want my daughter to become is a cheerleader (though I know with her being a girl this is a distinct possiblity). One of the three channels showing the olympics is on quite often at the Buscher household. When an event only comes around once every 4 years, you watch as much as you can. Oddly enough, Zoe learned 5 new words during the last two weeks. Three of which could be identified as cheers or utter astonishment at something just performed. So what are these so-called cheer words, you ask? Well, there's the word "go go" with the fist pump (no joke...Darin gets the credit for that one). Then there's the word "Yay" which is often accompanied with clapping. Again, Darin gets the credit for those. And lastly, the word "woah" which is long and dramatic. That one she learned on her own...I think. But most likely, it was probably me that let out a long "woah" after Michael Phelps continued to climb the gold medal ladder or the gymnastics routines that just blow me away. It's a funny sound to hear a one year old say "go go" and watching her do a small fist pump in the air after some prompting from Daddy. And among the other new words..."thanks and "thank you"...more often sounding like tank-oo.
How cute is the fist pump?
