Talking

Ted recalls reading that at some stage toddlers start saying a new word every day.  It seems like we are in that phase now and It's fascinating.  

Ted was holding a mug of tea and let the girls feel the outside and explained that it was 'hot'.  Then they both said 'hot'.  I almost fell over.  Nora says 'hi' and 'bye' when she pretends to talk on the phone.  Brenna says 'good' and 'aaaaaaaallllllll done'.  She also loves to answer yes/no questions from her parents with 'yea'.  She even knows the difference between the questions that aren't answered with yes and no because she doesn't respond to them.  Ted loves to ask about her day each evening when he gets home.  She has been taken with language from the beginning.  Nora makes the corresponding animal noises when she sees their photo.  Oink is her latest.  Her pure love for animals is infectious.
