She speaks!

Besides the typical "Dada" and "Momma", Kend has added some new words to her vocabulary. She loves shoes, so it is pretty appropriate that "shoose" is one of her first words. She also says "duck" and "cack, cack" for the sound. She says something that sounds a lot like "froggy", and also imitates a monkey sound when she plays with her monkey toy, "ooh, ooh, ooh". She also likes to growl! When she is done eating or finished with her tub, she says "aldone" and raises both hands in the air. 'Please' is said through sign language by patting her tummy, and she communicates this quite frequently by pointing at what she wants and using the sign. She understands quite a few directions like "come here" , "No, no", "Drop it", "tubby time", and "ready to go?". She enjoys being chased, and wrestling with her brother and daddy, but does not like to sit still long enough to have her diaper changed or to get dressed/undressed. When she is in a really silly mood, she likes to dance or shake her head back and forth making goofy noises with her mouth. Bry thinks all these new milestones are cool, and will point them out to use when she does something new.
