We have a new word...

Miss Possum is now 18.5 months old and is adding to her vocabulary every day.

Poo now joins a list including:
Dad
Mum
Ta
Ouch
No
Yes
Her name
Up
Ear
Eye
Woof Woof
Eeeooooooowww (cats don't meow here thanks to Scarface Claw)
Cheese
Ball
Teddy

Possum also does a very good imitation of an aerosol can thanks to a recent camping trip and the mosquitoes.

She understands a lot more than she can say. If we say 'bath time' she will run up the hall and knock on the bathroom door. The word 'bed' can bring on tears or vigorous head shaking.
'Outside' is a good word. 'Kiss' 'cuddle' and 'high five' get mixed results depending on her mood.

Reading is the preferred activity with 'Where is Green Sheep' the current favourite book. 'The very hungry Caterpillar' was the favourite for a long time but does not cause the same level of excitement as it used to, except in Mum ;)

  1. It's an amazing thing to watch them develop isn't it!
    We too are at the stage where we have to be much more careful about what we say :-)
