Word Explosion

It's pretty funny to think about how much Adelaide's vocabulary has grown over the past couple of months. I've been having a hard time uploading video or I'd post a few videos of some of her new words and phrases. I've got 1 to successfully upload of her new phrase (and my favorite)-- thank you. Unfortunately the one that uploaded was on a night when she was fussy.


Alright, so are you ready for the list of her new words? It's amazing if I do say so myself. What's even more amazing is seeing her use the words in the appropriate context on her own. Like saying "hot" when she's eating something warm or saying "thank you" when she gets something she wants. Today I even pointed to a picture of a flower that we'd never looked at before and asked what it was. It was a overjoyed mom when she responded with "flower."

OK, here we go:
hat
whee
please
want to get down
want to get up
up
No! (in response to any question we throw out there. we love asking Adelaide things like "is Daddy your favorite parent?" or "would you like a gold brick?")
yeah
wet
book
sit down
turtle (which she plays with often at the CCC office here)
baa (the thai word for let's go)
thank you
nana (for banana)
beep
flower
bunny
baby (referring to herself)
shoes
gentle
night night

She's also "writing" on the magna doodle alot these days and will use her hands to ask questions like "where." She's gotten good at matching things like these play fruits we got her. She's still climbing on everything and has even started trying to climb the Degarmos bunk bed ladder.
