Bria's vocabulary
How can she be two weeks shy of one and a half already? That hardly seems possible!
Bria is learning and growing every day, and developing in so many areas, it is incredible to just sit back and watch, and wait to see what she does next!
Her vocabulary is increasing each and every day -- not just with words, but with sign language, too. Her favorite new sign this week is "more," and she is putting them together into sentences, like, "More milk, please."
Some of the other signs she knows are:
Milk
All Done
Thank You
Please
More
Hungry
We are teaching her Mommy and Daddy now, but she doesn't use them much -- which is interesting, because when she likes a sign, she only has to be shown once, and she does it all the time!
At this point, she will repeat just about any word or phrase that is said to her (or around her -- watch out!). That makes it hard to guess how many words she might know, because she'll say pretty much anything!
She is going through a phase where she calls everyone "Mama." Her sisters, family friends, Daddy, lots of people are getting it, especially when she feels like she is in distress or needs something!
Bria loves to sing "The Itsy-Bitsy Spider," and will do the hand motions when she wants to hear the song. She also has a book about the rhyme, and it is one of her favorites to read with Daddy at bed time.
She does still have a pacifier, but when she tries to talk and you say, "Pacifier" or "I can't understand you with that in your mouth," she promptly drops it, because she wants to be understood! So big!
