This morning Indy picked up her shoe, held it in the air and declared “shoe!”, we were most proud. She also picked up two pair of undies and put them on as neckwear, as she does most days. Cute can be gross at the same time.
Indy’s words to date:
Hi, bye, kitty, daddy, mo (more), ba tie (bath time), see you (often said directly after bye), ACB, Q, TUV (as in the alphabet), shoe, O’s (as in Cherrios), Cherrios, changies, mil (milk), up, tree (as in 1,2,3!), teet (teeth). We’ve heard her say a lot of other words as a mimic, but not often repeated over and over.
She can recite these animals sounds as an onomatopoeia when asked: cow, sheep, dog, cat, bird, very occasionally chicken and rooster. Ducks are birds to Indy. And they are said “doot-doot”
She can point to her belly button, teeth, nose, toes, legs and arms when asked where they are.
She reads constantly and will bend your ear at any given moment. The best is when she brings a book over and plops down in your lap and reads to you.
Today she broke through her two last remaining molars on the lower jaw, she just has one more set up on the top and we can all be done with teething! Hooray!
