Ah-Boo!

Oldest daughter has developed some very odd characteristics having a daughter now.  One of them is that she is always saying, “Ah-Boo!” in her daughter’s face.  And grand-daughter delights in this.

But, where on Earth has “Ah-Boo!” come from?

I have tried at least seven different ways in asking this of OD, however she is never able to come up with an answer as to where she learned this from.  She does not even know if this is a Russian idiom or not!

Now, you may remember that not only was OD pregnant but so were two of her sister-in-laws, all delivering within two weeks of each other, my grand-daughter being the first to arrive.

So, I ran into one of OD’s sister-in-laws two weeks ago and did the required inspect the baby routine.  Of course, hers looks less human than OD’s, but you would never say such a thing!  Much less offer a banana…  (I bad!)

And, what was she doing?  Yeah, bent over her baby saying “Ah-Boo!” in her little son’s face!  Guess where she learned that one from.

Yeah, OD does seem to be a trendsetter where ever she goes…..
