Missing: One Baby

About two weeks ago, Lily started really completing her words more.  “Tay-tay” became “table,” “die-die” became “dine-saurs,” and so on.  She imitates almost any sound she hears, and only struggles with “s” sound blends as far as I can tell (i.e. snake is “hnake” if you can imagine how that is pronounced). 

It has been so fun to hear her start to talk more like a big girl, but we’re already a little nostalgic for the baby words.  Although she sometimes still calls Annabelle (her lovey) by the odd lip-popping sound, she will also call her “kikky cat” or something that sounds like “airmail” or “amma-hell.”

Well, hold on to your hats, folks, because we are also breezing right through several other milestones.  Lily has started using a lot more phrases (like “come in,” “right here,” “dress up,” “go bye-bye,” etc.), but now will even throw out some short sentences (i.e. “Mama draw”).  This afternoon, she was putting her fireman’s hat on a stuffed frog named Tad, and told me “Tad wear hat.” 

Heartwarming.

Pride-inducing.

Kinda freakin’ me out.

Has anyone seen my baby?
