Lost in Translation



























I'm busy.... I'm busy.... I'm a busy little bee!!!! I love to walk all over now, and I do it from the time I wake up until I nap -- then again until I'm falling over ready for bed. On some rare occasions I'll sit and watch something on TV, but mostly... I just walk!!! I've been trying to run a little bit now, and sometimes I lose control and crash into a wall, or the couch, or Mum or Dad. :-D

I say nearly 40 words now -- I KNOW, pretty impressive huh?? I learn new words all the time, and I remember what they mean, it makes telling Mummy & Daddy what I want or need soooo much easier. But I have a confession to make... for a while now when I see that Mickey, I have been calling him 'monkey'. Mum and Dad thought I was saying MICkey... but I was actually saing MONkey. And to add insult to injury for that Mickey guy... I just heard he's actually something called a mouse. I could have sworn he was a monkey, so that's what I'm calling him! I mean really... a talking mouse???

Another of my newest tricks is that when I'm hungry I sign for 'more' and when Daddy or Mummy asks me what I want more of -- I go and touch my high chair! MORE FOOD PLEASE. That's right... I ask for food, and I eat all the time. Seriously - I can eat a pre-breakfast snack, breakfast, another snack, lunch, yet another snack, dinner and sometimes I ask for milk before I go to bed! WHO KNEW???? Mummy was a little worried when my tube came out, but I have shown her that she doesn't need to worry... I can eat just fine!

Just in case you wanted to know...here are all the words that I say, and I know what they all mean. (at least I THINK Mummy got them all.....) Enjoy! I love you all!!!!
