Amy's speech

Now that Amy is having conversations with us,  she comes up with some pretty funny things.

This morning she pointed to my lips and said "I like your mouth!".

We were driving in the car and the conversation went as follows:

Amy: "I see a puppy out a window"
Me: "Wow!  What colour was the puppy?"
Amy: "Blue".

Of course it was blue...

When she arrived home from day care the other week,  she saw Jack lying on the couch.  She went over to him and gave him pats and said "Hi little boy!  I missed you a-day"  (which means 'I missed you today' ).

Every day after day care I asked her what she did.  She often replies that she did painting.  When I ask what colour,  she says "blue". 

Of course.

Another cute moment was when Amy found my phone lying on the couch.

Amy: "I got a message!"
Me: "You got a message?  Who's it from?"
Amy: "Aunty Sal!"

One morning she came up to me and said "I like your hair!". Ha ha. She had heard me say it to a friend the day before who had recently had her hair cut.
Amy then started walking around touching her hair saying "I like my hair".

Her speech has recently developed even further where she is trying to perfect certain words.  For example: "crocodile"  she used to pronounce "croco-hile".  She said it correctly today. 

I was teaching her about questions and answers.  I asked her what her favourite colour was.  Then she repeated after me "my favourite colour is blue".

We also did favourite shape (heart),  favourite song (rock a bye your bear), and favourite number (5).

Then we sang some songs together.  She remembers a lot of lyrics now to her favourite nursery Rhymes and wiggles songs. Sometimes she tells me not to sing.  :/
