Emma has taken to saying wait wait... She does this usually with a hand motion or the index finger up and wagging. At times we find this highly annoying and react with the typical parent montage of "No, you ..." However, being us we usually react by mimicking her. Jim and I have even been known to say it to each other when the kids are no where around!
So the conversation might go like this:
Jim: Go brush your teeth and then we will go to the park. Grab a jacket.....(continue with instructions)
Emma: Wait wait...pause The track park, or a different park. Let's go to the track park!
Jim: Wait wait....Yes the track park.
At this point I don't think she thinks it is odd to say wait wait all the time. I don't think it is a tic that we should worry about. She has said or used other expressions in the past and they typically phase out as she continues to grow. Lucie likewise did things like this, expressive one or two word statements that would have us laughing or smiling because it was too cute. We just don't want to forget about it so I had to write it down.
