blossoming vocabulary and skills

Maria is starting to show signs of talking more and more every day, words like hat, hot, lots more animal sounds, and her latest word "down". She says it also when she wants up though, so I guess we will have to work on that a bit. And the way she says it is adorable. She draws it out and it sounds more like douuuuuwwnnnnnnn. She is also getting better about actually using some of the signs I have tried to teach her like "please", "more", "yes".

She has also gotten to where she knows when she has to use the bathroom, or maybe has just gone, at any rate we are impressed that she knows and lets us know too, by patting her diaper. Usually if we are paying attention we can get her on the toilet for a bm. Lovely blog information I know!! Maria will surely appreciate it someday. Isn't that what parents are for, to humiliate their children!

We have plenty to praise God for; a daughter who impresses us with the things she knows.
