It is so awesome to see how Emma’s language is developing. She is continuing to sign, but says words now, too. These words, however, are not words that any typical person would recognize. I recognize them only because I am her mommy and hear them all the time. ;-) Here is a list of some words and how she interprets them…
done- dah
milk- coo
more- dah (same as done, but the sign is different)
diaper- dah-DAH (she stresses the last syllable)
eat- ah
banana- dah-dah-dah
apple- ah-dah
fish- she-eeee (I know its fish because she does the hand sign along with it)
cow- tow (it is the word that sounds the closest to a real word. it sounds just like cow with a T)
sleep- sheee
outside- shhh- shoooowwww (like cow)
yogurt- goh-goo
and last, but certainly not least, her favorite thing in the world…. (Lacey) Pooh- Emma says ‘ooooooooooooooooh’
She loves Lacey so much, ‘Oooooooo’ is the first thing she says when I go see her in the morning. It is closely followed by ‘Tow.’ 😉
She is so precious! I wish you all could see her! She is more amazing everyday!
