Oh my goodness, Esme, learn a new word!

Is anyone else getting NO all the time? It was my first word so i probably deserve it but it's like everything is "no" nowadays.

Even when she means YES! This morning "do you want some toast honey?" *watching me butter the toast, half crying and grasping with her hand towards the breadboard* "No! Nononononono! No!". And then i give her it and she says "Ahankooo" (thankyou). LOL.

I am torn between ignoring it (when i'm not actually offering a choice and she's just commenting) or listening since it seems disrespectful to me to constantly ignore her. I don't want her to feel out of control, but i do want her to realise saying "no" makes no difference at bedtime, nappytime, etc.

Please tell me i'm not alone!
