itz

If you saw the last video, you heard Rachel refer to "itz" crackers. She likes Ritz crackers, and, to be sure I knew what she was talking about, she invented a sign for Ritz. Watch the last video again, and you will see the sign: she air scratches her torso, or, sometimes, under her arms. I was so confused when I realized that was her sign for Ritz. Why?? Pits? We never talk about arm pits. Itch? I don't remember ever having an itch there. After two weeks of brainstorming, Aunt Mamber cracked the code. She was babysitting, and Rachel was sitting on the potty, pre-bedtime. Amber was reviewing body parts with Rachel, and, when she said, "Where are your ribs?" Rachel made the exact same motion! Ribs. Ritz. An answer. Thanks, Aunt Mamber.
