She&#8217;s saying things like, &#8220;I want the blue cup,&#8221; &#8220;That&#8217;s <em>my<\/em> baby! This is <em>yours<\/em>, mama.&#8221; &#8220;I hear Ember! Go get <em>her<\/em>!&#8221; She&#8217;s speaking slower, you can tell she&#8217;s searching in her brain for the correct pronoun to use. The result is an utterly adorable emphasis on certain words.<\/p>\n<p>Today was a conversation bonanza with her. So many funny and adorable things!<\/p>\n<p>::<\/p>\n<p>She woke up from her nap (yes she took one today!) in a good mood. I could hear her chattering in her room, and singing, so I left her for a few minutes. When I went in to get her she was sitting on her bed in the corner with all her her various stuffed animals laying down in an array in front of her. &#8220;Shhh,&#8221; she said, &#8220;All the animals are sleeping!&#8221; I sat down with her and we sung them her bedtime song (Morningtown Ride). She she made me give each of the animals a kiss, also part of her bedtime routine. Then we tiptoed out of the room.<\/p>\n<p>A minute later she says, &#8220;Rabbit crying!&#8221; We opened her bedroom door and she ran over to the bed to pick up the rabbit. &#8220;It okay,&#8221; she said while giving him a big squeezy hug. &#8220;It okay.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>::<\/p>\n<p>This afternoon we went to a ball field to watch Den play baseball. Kate has been showing interest in baseball, it&#8217;s one of her favorite things to do outside (she has a plastic bat and ball). We sat on the bench for a little bit and she kept pointing to Den and saying, &#8220;Daddy! Daddy! Hi!! Number five!&#8221; (He has the number 5 on his back.)<\/p>\n<p>When he was up to bat she clapped and said &#8220;Yaayyy!!&#8221; every time he swung &#8211; even if he missed. He ran to first base and she clapped. He ran to second and she clapped. In a little bit he was able to run home and she clapped. As he jogged off the field toward us she ran toward him and said, &#8220;Yay daddy!!! I so proud of you!!&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>::<\/p>\n<p>On the way home after dinner she rode in Den&#8217;s car with him &#8211; Ember was in my SUV with me. When we got home she immediately said, &#8220;Mama! Look, the moon!!! Look!!&#8221; And it was there above the house. Den said on the way home she could see the moon out the window and kept talking about it. &#8220;Daddy, the moon!! Where the moon go? There it is! The moon!!&#8221; Apparently she also said something along the lines of, &#8220;Kate tired. Moon means bedtime. Daddy tired, too.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>She indeed went to bed soon as we got home.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Kate&#8217;s speech has shifted this past week, she has started using pronouns correctly and more complex sentence forms.
