My This

Time for an update on Parker's speaking because we had a big milestone this week...she says her own name!!  I discovered it on Saturday and then managed to get a decent video of her counting and singing the Alphabet Song.    

She still says "my this" for anything she has or wants and doesn't know the name for, but every day she adds more new words.  One of my favorite books to read to Parker is called A Rumble in the Jungle and is basically a role call of different wild animals.  She has been able to point to all the animals for a long time, but last night she said her version of zebra when asked...it was "bezah".  The was able to say giraffe pretty well though.

She still says Dada and Mama and Opitis and even though those aren't quite correct, it will make me sad when she start to say them properly.

Here is another rendition of Wheels on the Bus.  She sings a lot of the words now...
