1. Bird! She spotted pigeons in Cali and would say bird, run over, or just watch for them in the sky. This is one Grandma Mona helped her with while reading her a book before we left.
2. Beach! That was a fun one... I'm sure she was meaning bEAch... HA!
3. Whoosh! Again, a sound from one of her favorite stories, The Ugly Bug. She turns to that page and looks at me while making the sound. That and OOEEAAH! for the monkey :)
4. Dad! She has said it for a while, only now she has added the sign for Dad. It's especially hilarious because I'll prompt her to say Mom which I know very well she is extremely proficient in saying and signing... So I say Mom and she immediately sticks her thumb to her forehead and smiles, "Dad!". Cracks us up!
5. Lastly, our favorite! "Read da book!" Yes, my friends, in the wee hours of one California morning, she came to our bedside with her little book in hand, handed it to me and said in her little voice, "Read da book". Pace and I flipped. It was so SPECIAL!! It is so fun to watch them grow, isn't it!

It is SO FUN to watch them grow. I love it. It's hilarious to hear all of Lily's words. Her new one today was "happy" - it was cute. You look like you had a great time at the beach too!!
She is SO cute! I love listening to her talk! It's crazy how she's turning into a little person... she's not a baby anymore, but she still is so much fun!! Now, if we can just get her to say Aunt Ash!!
Gwen! I love the "Read da book" story! That's fantastic! How fun... Yes, let's hang out this week! Call me!
She is so adorable!
