Guácala!

When Chris changes one of Katy's stinky diapers, he usually exclaims, "guácala." which means yuck or gross in Spanish.  Katy has since learned this word and frequently uses it when she has a stinky diaper.

This past Saturday night, we spent an evening with friends handing out around the convention center.  Katy's little friend Leonardo was there, which made Katy very happy.  Katy adores Leonardo.  Her face lights up when she sees him.  I love watching Katy play with Leonardo because he brings out her social side like no other toddler.  This past Saturday was no exception.  Katy and Leonardo climbed and rolled and danced and laughed and ran and held hands all night.

But now back to the guácala.  Late into the evening, Katy was walking behind Leonardo.  Leonardo's pants were sagging a bit in the back, perhaps because, as we realized half way through the evening, his pants were on backwards (dressing a toddler is challenging at times).  Upon noticing Leonardo's saggy bottom, Katy informed me that "Leonardo tiene guácala" (Leonard has guácala). Yup. Not only does my girl use guácala as a noun, she also knows what it looks like on someone else.
