I know I know! September's almost gone and not a single post! My only excuse is that we've been pretty busy lately. Kalli was also sick for a week and was confined to the hospital. I've started blogging about it, but so far it's still in draft form. I'll finish and publish it soon. For now I just want to write some updates here.
At 22 months Kalli has been conversing pretty well now. She speaks in sentences and even knows her grammar. The other day I heard her tell tita May "Get it tita May! Get it!" She was asking her tita May to get the toy on the other side of the bed. Finally she reached for it herself and said "Got it!" Imagine, she knows her past and present tense! Hahaha. She also knows plural forms (she's been using this for a long time now). She adds S to her words when there's more than 1. One ball, Two balls. One Toy, Many Toys. Only problem is that she's also saying "Many Peoples", hahaha. But that's alright. She also knows the use of 's for ownership. Again, this one she has known since forever. She says "Mommy's pillow". Or "Daddy's car". OR "No tita LA, that's mommy's", when she sees tita LA using my blanket. No one taught her these things. She just figured them out on her own. It really pays to talk to kids the right way and not baby talk. You'll be amazed at how quickly they learn! Yesterday we went to mass and Kalli was looking inside her bag. She found a pack of biscuits and she wanted to open it. She went to her dad, thought for a moment, then said "Abye! Abye!". Hahaha, for those of you who didn't get that, she was saying "Abre! Abre!" Now she's speaking spanish too, thanks to Dora and Diego! These past couple of days she has been using "Abye" instead of "Open". It's quite funny really :)
There's so many things that I want to write about, but I just don't have the time. Hopefully I'll have more time after next week... or maybe not :(
Oh well, back to work...
