That Girl Can Talk!

Lana is our little talker. She always has something to say. At 18 months she used more words than I could count. Some of her first words included: cheese, juice, shoes, purple, hi, bye, Mommy, Daddy, baby, dollie, dog, duck and Nathan. There were so many more, but I'm having some trouble remembering them all. Her first sentence was: "Help me."

At almost 23 months she has many phrases that she uses frequently. We often hear: "All done." "Mine."  "Nathan bus." "Pap truck." "I want ----" "Hi Mommy! (or Daddy, etc.)

Her vocabulary has increased dramatically. Some of her favorite words are: princess, pink, puzzle, potty, no, Nathan, Tate, Jackson, play-doh and car.

Her favorite show is Sesame Street and she loves Abby Cadabby. She calls her "Abby Gabby" or "Gabby Abby."

She loves to sing. Her favorite songs are "Itsy Bitsy Spider" and "Twinkle, Twinkle Little Star." She also loves to count to two. I frequently hear her little voice throughout the house counting "one two one two one two" over and over again. She is also a book lover. Her current favorite book is a mini-version of  "Go, Dog, Go." She loves to read books to herself and have others read books to her.
