We are getting ready for polite society. Rosemary's Grandma Max taught her to introduce herself formally. This means she now refers to herself most often in the third person, first and last names both. It always makes me think of that old Saturday Night Live sketch where Norm MacDonald plays Bob Dole on the Real World: "You're sitting on Bob Dole's chair...That's Bob Dole's peanut butter you're eating." Who's yogurt is that? Rosemary Sanders's yogurt! Fancy.
Movies are hard to get these days because more often than not the funny thing she is doing or saying before I whip out the camera disappears and is replaced by please to hold and play with the video camera. I just deleted 70 three-second videos. That is apparently the time it takes for R to push the record button twice, once for start and again for stop.
In other news, she does the alphabet song in full (slurring through the middle part) and counts to 13, although she doesn't point and count yet. She also uses 13 to indicate the distant future, like the other day when I was trying (over her protests) to cut her fingernails. I asked when she'd like me to do it instead and she replied "13 o'clock."
