Sometime around August, I stopped counting months and realized that my baby is almost 2 years old. And now that it's almost the holiday season (and her birthday), I realize that I'm glad I've given myself ample warning!
When we got here in July, Piper didn't say much. These days she's surprising me on a daily basis. And since we are in a land where I'm slowly trying to grasp the language, I find it fitting that I let you in on some of Piper's lingo. Here are some of her favorites:
She has her family down: "Daddy, Mommy, and Doggie"
"BUBBA" for Bubbles
"CAHHH" for car.
"Heeeigo" for Here ya go.
"Thaygo" for There ya go.
"MEHHHH" means kiss.
"ganku" for thank you.
"Buk" for Book.
"Mooww?" with voice raising an octave or two to indicate she's asking for More.
"Wok" means Walk
and her all time favorite, the one that puts a huge smile on her face is:
"Cooookie"
She's turning more into a kid everyday by wanting to spend time outside, walk everywhere, play at the park, push her own stroller and walk Tommy - and when I say, "walk Tommy" I mean she has the reigns! (they're training each other :)
It's amazing that in a matter of minutes she can make my heart sing by saying "Ganku" when I hand her some food and then making me disappointed by throwing her food at Tommy...she really knows better...
oh well, She's a kid - and I'm crazy in love with her. MEHHHHH!!!!
