Alana's Update

Well, for whatever reason, I decided to try and list all of our little girls latest accomplishments...i know, a difficult task considering every day she does something different, but thought for 16 months I should give everyone an update.
Here is the updated list of words...
ice, moon, pool, pop, nanny, dude, clock (pronounced without the L :-) ) duck, book, Mama, Dada, Papa, hi, quack, bloo (Balloon), juice, ear, what, bite, brush, Bops (Doodlebops), ball, star, Ba-ba (bottle), horse, boob, wow, psst, up, please, baby, dog, cat, tickle-tickle, belly, eye, light, flower, one, two, puppy, Lola, apple, bath, purple, tree, teeth, noodle, buck-buck(chicken noise), Moo (cow noise), woof-woof, Dora, Elmo, cccchhhh chee (cookie), FFSHHH (fish), Ellie, pakoo (sparkle-nieghbor's dog), PAOOOL (paul-neighbor), pooh (winnie the pooh), birrrrr (bird), Anana (lana), Kaleigh, Ba-birrrrr (big bird), Nay nae (renee), bert, ernie, spanky, potty, knee, hiney, toe, boo boo, cereal, binkie, night night, mouse, yellow, blue, abcd, tongue, Boots, shoe, on, off, Meemosh (great grandma), giggle, pig, frog, box, banana, happy, yo yo you yo-(yo ho a pirates life for me), Leen (helene), yes, no, eat, map, backpack, pretty, bath, bye-bye, go, sit, cheese, hammies (cold cuts), bob (Sponge bob), ring...i know there is more just brain dead!!!!

She is not only saying one word at a time, but she has been makning sentences for a couple weeks now...such things like "up mama please" or "Ice pop mama please". If you ask her what sound the following animals make, she will tell you: sheep, cow, chicken, duck, lion, cat, pig. If you have a boo boo she will kiss it better. She thinks it is funny to jump out and scare you by saying boo. She will tell you how many puppies she has and what their names are. She knows how to swipe a credit card :-(

She is AMAZING...everyday we see something new and are in awe. I am so upset about going back to work because I will have to hear about her accomplishments second hand. I am so saddened by the thought of having to put her in daycare. It is a necessity and there is no other option :-(
