Kate's Words

I'll update you all on Kate's birthday, our Christmas holiday and Cancun vaction soon, but today, on the occasion of Kate's ONE YEAR doctor visit, I decided to make a list of all her words. For those of you who have been keeping up with the videos on facebook, you already know that Kate has been talking since she was about six months old. Her first words were "uh oh" and "bye bye." Next came "Dada" and "Mama," and then "button." It's been full speed ahead since then! Here is my list, which is probably not complete, but you'll get the idea...These are all words that she not only says, but knows the meaning of.

hair dryer
Christmas tree
bless you
thank you
peek-a-boo
all gone
all done
yes
walk
crawl
boot
hat
ball
dog
Buddy
dad, dada, daddy
mom, mama
car
eat
socks
coat
help
up
what is this/that?
where is it/are they?
there it is!
two
uh oh
bye bye
button
ear
hair
hot
eye
good girl
wow
yum
kiss
clock
spatula
burp
boobie
poop
toot
peepee
bottle
water
TooDoo (grandpa)

Animal noises:
cow: moo
sheep: baa
dog: ruff ruff
fish: glug glug (Brian would point out that fish don't actually make a sound)
lion: roar
owl: whooo
monkey: oo oo ee ee
goat: maa maa

Here is some proof (just a little):

I'm telling you all this not so that I can earn bragging rights (though bragging rights are always nice...), but because it has been so much fun watching Kate learn and grow and I'd like to share that with you. She has such a desire to explore, figure out, and learn names for new things...she surprises us every single day!!!
