Our Doodles definitely seems to be a late bloomer in the speech department. It's not that she doesn't have a lot to say, she's absolutely talking to us, we just don't understand most of it yet. And I probably understand the most out of anyone.
Her first official phrase started last month, prob right at 22 months. Randomly throughout the day she will say, "I wanna go." It goes more like this, "I waaannnnnaaaa dooooohhhhhhh." Occasionally she puts on her shoes too. :)
Also last month, she started saying uh-huh. Before that it was only 'no.' And in just the last week she is saying, 'yeah,' instead of 'uh-huh.' It's awesome! Communication is so much easier when we understand one another.
What surprises us the most? She has no name for her brother! She has names for her grandparents, Lola, obviously mom and dad, Dora, Jake, Minnie, her Lovey, her babies and a few others I know I am forgetting. But, no Cooper. Not even some made up name, she just grunts at his door when she is awake from morning/nap...I know she is asking if he is awake. For some reason if he isn't in the car with us, she points to his seat and grunts. Other than that, nothing. Of course he is clueless that she doesn't know his name. He is more concerned that she doesn't say please or thank you yet.
Oh yeah, that almost 2 year old high pitch, ear piercing scream at the most inappropriate time and places...she's got that one mastered.
Oh Laney Faith, our life would be a lot less lively without you in it! We love you so much!!!
