Chatter


Oh my goodness, we have a little chatterbox on our hands. In the past month or so, Zoe has been talking up a storm. It's crazy...and awesome. Every day is something new. She's repeating everything and actually remembering it. So much fun. The other day, however, I was changing her sheets and I told her she had clean sheets. Now anytime she sees her crib she points at it and says "sheet"...except it doesn't quite sound like "sheet," if you know what I mean.

It's pretty cool how quickly her language skills are advancing. She's talking in 2-3 word sentences and can finally communicate with us better than ever before. Of course, she still grunts, cries and whines when she's really frustrated and agitated, but at least some of the time she can actually use a few words. I know everyone says this all the time, but these kiddos sure do grow up quickly.

Sadly, she hasn't quite mastered saying Charlie yet. When we say Charlie she knows who we're talking about, but I think the "Ch" sound is tough for her. She does, however, constantly talk about Olive (Charlie's doggy BFF across the hall). Zoe adores Olive and loves watching Charlie and Olive play. Now, whenever Zoe wants to see Olive, she starts banging on our door saying "See Olive! See Olive!" I've said it before and I'll say it again, Zoe thinks she is part puppy. I'm just relieved she's talking instead of barking.
