Chatting Away

Lucy has been chatting up a storm lately. While she still babbles quite a bit, she has also begun to pick up speed with her English vocabulary - which is really nice for Brian and me so we know what Lucy wants. Here is a partial list of Lucy's words to date - keep in mind, though she has said all of these words, some are not consistent...

Uh-oh (her first word and still tops on her list), Momma, Dada, bye-bye (ba-bye), ball, baby, bubbles, balloon, bee, bowl, bear (she likes the "b" words), nana, applesauce (though comes out in a bit of a jumble), get down, pick-ups (as in Gerber Pasta Pick-Ups), hi, kitty, geese, Miss LeeLee (says my leelee), Miss Debbie (says m deb), more, yes and my favorite - please! Lucy just started to say please, with reminders. It comes out more like plee... and she says it with a cheesy smile so it is so cute. Lucy is so proud of herself for her growing vocabulary and so are we. Interestingly enough, although Lucy says yes, she does not say "no." She will shake her head vigorously to let us know she is in disagreement, but she has yet to say the actual word. How lucky are we?
