New words

Macy learned a new word last night. I painted my fingernails while the girls were in the tub, and when Macy saw them she was quite interested. I wiggled my drying nails in front of her and said, "purple!" Then she started saying it back, "puh-ple!" This morning I asked her what color my fingers were, and she remembered, "puh-ple!"

When she hears a motorcycle drive by our house, she gets a big smile on her face and says, "Dad!" Unfortunately, it's usually the neighbor across the street.

She's getting easier to understand, and I'm recognizing more and more words every day. Here's a list of the things she says on a regular basis:

Mama/Mommy/Mom
No

Just kidding - she says much more than that!

A-Choo, Applesauce, Baby, Balloon, Bath, Bee, Bed, Belly Button, Bite, Book, Bread, Butterfly, Bye, Cat, Cheese, Clap, Cookie, Cracker, Dad, Dance, Dog, Down, Duck, Ear, Eat, Elmo, Eye, Flower, Football, Grammie/Grandma, Pa-Pa (Grandpa), Hair, Hat, Head, Hi, Hot, Hot Dog, Hug, Juice, Kennedy, Kiss, Mickey, Minnie, Milk, More, Necklace, Night-Night, Outside, Ow, Pamp, Pat, Raining, Rock, Scary, Shoes, Sip, Sleep, Socks, Splash, Step, Stomp, Swing, Toes, Tongue, Towel, Tummy, Turtle, TV, Umbrella, Up, Walk, Water, Windy

And all the animal names and noises that I've already mentioned in other posts. I know there are more words that I'm forgetting! I'll have to keep adding to the list.
