the past week

It was obvious that Sophie was glad to be home! Daddy says she is not even like the same child.

Over the past week, she has begun to say 2 syllable "words". I use the term "word" loosely. She says Dad-dee, Hap-py, Pee-pee. But she is also saying "Dibble, dibble" or dibba, dibba". It sounds really funny. I think she is saying "Hap-pee" when she wants me to sing "If you're happy and you know it".

Today, she turned to the Old MacDonald page of her song book, and started saying "eee I eee I eee I". She began saying "Clap, clap" and clapping her hands. It takes me a little while to realize that she is saying real words and acting them out.
