First words

Halle has started saying words lately. Her first word was ball. Then "ba ba" (for bottle). But since then she keeps adding little words to her vocabulary. It seems that she tries to mimick a lot of the smaller, shorter words we say and she does a pretty good job at it! She is now saying "Go!". It's really cute, it comes out "go! go!" She always seems to repeat whatever she is saying a few times. One day I was showing her a picture of grandma and grandpa Lori and Sheldon and when I pointed to grandpa, as plain as day she said "gram pa!" So cute! Then, today Luke was talking about a character named Koko from a show he loves and again, plain as day Halle said "Ko ko". She kept saying it over and over. She liked that word! She's a very smart girls and is catching onto new things all the time. We can tell that she understands so much of what we say. She does a little sign language like "more" when she wants more food and "all done" when she is done with her meal. I'm sure she'd catch onto a lot more if I taught her more. It's so fun to see her progress and learn all these new things.
