Words for May



Tiny (she says this when she sees a baby "Tiny baby!")
Old (if she sees her water cup from the day before, she'll solemnly say "Old drink")
Heavy
Teacher
Dirty (Summer, don't touch that, it's dirty!)
Arm
Elbow
Knee
Face
Back
Book
House
Read It
Lap (when she wants to sit in our lap)
Bee
Ant
Spider (she's still working on S, so this sounds like "pider")
Bug
Bad bug (this is accompanied by hand waving, as if to ward off mosquitoes, and giggling) (Also, I am so proud of our budding entomologist!)
Teeth
Purple
Orange (she still gets her colors mixed up, but she's pretty good with these two)
Crying (If she hears a baby crying she'll say "Baby crying. Paci.")
Happy (When she sees pictures of herself smiling she says "Baby happy)
Hold you (this means she wants me to pick her up "Do you want me to hold you?"
Me
Mine
My
Laptop
Cherry
Apple - she's starting to really say Apple, not Bop-bop, which is what she's called them until now
Juice
Pancake
French toast
Play
Room (she can't say R yet, so this is "oom")
Sick (one of our cats was sick recently)
Medicine (she's taking medicine for allergies)
Bag
Couch
Truck (this has the same unfortunate pronunciation as "sock". We're still working on it.)
Mickey Mouse (We bought a DVD of Fantasia. She loves the part about the Sorcerer's Apprentice, with Mickey Mouse. She says it "Me moush!)
Nemo (She loves Finding Nemo, which she calls Mee-mo)
DVD (when she wants to watch one of her DVDs)
Fart (this one makes me laugh. For a while, if anything happened in her diaper area, she said "Poop." Now when she says it, I'll sometimes ask "Was it a poop, or was it a fart? She'll look at me seriously and very solemnly say "Fart.")

Every night, as the first part of our bedtime routine, we say goodnight to the cats. Our longhair cat is almost always asleep on one of our dining room chairs, so we say good night to her first. Summer now uses this as her way of telling us that she's tired. If she says "Night night Coco" then we know it's time for bed.

Square/Circle (She's playing with puzzles and blocks - the type where she has to put a certain shape into the hole with the same shape.)


Help (any time she wants us to help her to do something, or if she wants to help me do something. She loves helping to empty the dishwasher with me, and she's great at helping with put groceries away.)

She's consistently putting two words together - Mommy car, play outside, old bottle.

She also likes to feed us, and help us to get dressed and put on our shoes and socks.
