out of the mouth of Kathryn

Eric & I keep saying that I need to post Kathryn's vocabulary just so you can go "wow". We aren't proud parents or anything.

So by 14 months these are the actual words she can say (not in any order... well by the order I wrote them on the wipe board on the refrigerator):

uh-oh
more
ball
baby
book
daddy
bye-bye
duck
nin nin (din din)
up
amen
bath
bib
Elmo
keys
brush
mine
hi
mommy
nana (this is either the fruit or my mom depending on the situation)
car

She can also say and point out: eye, ear, hair, nose, and mouth. She has recently added a form of belly button, that unless her shirt (or anyone else's) is raised, sounds a lot like baby.

She also has distinct sounds for Dixon, Daisy, kitty, and dog. She will tell you that the dog says "woof woof" but can't get the meow part yet. There are a lot of dogs in the neighborhood and apparently we have quiet kitties. She has started making a sound for snack, but usually just says more and goes to the pantry or fridge.

We also think she has a phrase for "what's that". Or at least it sounds like what she is trying to say when we have something she doesn't know what it is.

Oh, and for some reason "diaper" sounds like "boppy". Not sure where that confusion came from, but she is clear that if she needs a new diaper to say "boppy".

I think that is it. I'm sure I am forgetting something that Eric will remind me of when he reads this.
