Vocabulary

Thursday, February 28th, 2008

Okay, I admit that I have been really bad about keeping up.  I have tons of photos and video to work on over my upcoming Spring Break (yes, it is one of the perks to teaching).  Right now Amy and I have been amazed at how fast Jane’s vocabulary has grown.  As I mentioned in a previous post, “mama” was the first word to come out and now Jane is really connecting that with Amy.  I did finally get “dada” the other day so I am a little more comforted that I am something other than the guy who changes diapers.  Other words that have come up: ”byebye” (with hand wave most of the time), “kiki” (I think kitty because she says it to Stanley the cat), “Daisy”(A little garbled but there), “papa” (hasn’t got a particular use for that one yet), and something close to “Heather” (her sitter, our good friend, and surrogate aunt).  Of course this means that our daughter must be a genius… but I may be a little biased.
