You Said It!

The words are coming. Every day Benji and I add more words to our vocabulary. Like any foreign language, we can understand much more than we can say. Sometimes, we pretend that we don’t understand the commands we don’t choose to follow, but we understand. Talking is fun. At first we just spoke gibberish enjoying the sounds we were making. Then we fond certain sounds meant things. Once we matched a sound with an object, we’d repeat it over and over like when Benji says ball, ball, ball. I made the first two-word sentence when I said “kick it”. Then Benji saw our neighbor shooting hoops in his driveway and said “Zack ball”. Daddy posted a list of the words we’re saying in the right-hand column of this blog. Our goal was 50 words by age two, and I think we’ll make it.
