New Sentences

I asked Caitlin, as we were on our way home from MOPS, if she wanted to go night-night when we got home. She nodded violently (remember the head banging scene in "Wayne's World?") and answered "ja!" right away. She paused, and added "Mommy read book" right after that! I'm so impressed! I've been thinking that I've heard her use a few 3-word sentences lately, but they were unclear, so I haven't been entirely positive I was hearing her correctly. Now I'm sure. She knows what she wants, and now she knows how to ask for it! Of course, then she was impressed with her use of the word "book" and sang about books the rest of the way home. So much for silence.

Did we read a book when we got home? Not really. Lately Caitlin wants to read the books. She may say she wants me to read a book, but she just wants me to hold her while she "reads".

She's getting her voice, we already know she can make noise. Get the instruments out she'll soon be singing.
