She was listening!

We always point to things and tell Evee what they are. We ask her to repeat it, and nope, NOTHING. OVER AND OVER we tried. Don't get me wrong she does talk, I just want her to expand her vocabulary. Lets face it, you can't get by with only momma, dadda, sippy and movie. Today a light bulb turned on for her. She kept going to things and saying what they were and asking for things by their actual name. I am still blown away as I am typing. It is so funny the things that create excitement as parents. So here is what she can say at 22 months..
Momma
Dadda
Kitty
Olivia
Grandpa
Grandma
Jacob
Jon
Lex
Bread
Juice
Pretty please
drink
thirsty
bike
cracker
cookie
amen
outside
sippy
binky
blanky
close door
bath
eye
nose
football
ball
There are probably more, I am drawing a blank. I hope to get her to say these on video. I will post it when we get to it.
We will also be trying the potty training again.... I really hope she gets it soon! It can be so frustrating!!

Update on Olivia. She too is doing well with her milestones. We had her 4 month check up last week. She weighed 15lbs and 23 3/4in long. 90% for weight and 95% for length. We had the OK to start solid food for her, so that has been the new thing around here. She so far is liking rice cereal with smashed bananas in it. She is rolling over both ways. She loves Veggie Tales. If it was up to Evelynn she would have Veggie Tales on 24/7 even though she looses her interest 10minutes into it, but Olivia will sit and watch the whole thing. She laughs at Bob whenever he comes on the screen. I guess who wouldn't laugh at talking vegetables/fruit.

Of course I can't post without pictures.

Evelynn thinks the chest is her perfect seat to watch Veggie Tales. Silly girl!


Look at those dimples on her chubby cheeks!
