KayTar still quotes them to us fairly often, even though she doesn't script much anymore. Commercials are so popular for that sort of thing!

It's kind of funny, in my younger days I thought that when he learned to use intentional language the echolalia would stop. Um, well, not so much. Instead he now talks twice as much!

Evidently my daughter overheard me say "scared the s**t out of me" once because that was one of her phrases for awhile. Oh how fun it was. Cuuuuuute pics!

My son does this constantly. And if I don't answer him or respond to his statements he gets louder with the repeating. UGH. I find myself getting so frustrated. I just need to remember he can't help it. It's normal for him. It's very hard not to get frustrated. My son this week has taken a liking to repeat commercial verbatim at the top of his lungs while jumping up and down. Does he ever run out of energy or stop talking? LOL. Only when he sleeps.
