My mother-in-law and I compiled a list of all of Adrianna’s current words yesterday. We are probably missing a few, but here is an extensive list of over fifty words that we came up with. These are words that she uses on her own without our prompting.<\/p>\n

    She also does a few phrases that really aren’t words but she totally catches the inflection of how we say them. She will hide and we used to always ask, “Where’s Adrianna?” with our voices rising in tone at the ‘anna’ in her name. So now if she hides and we don’t ask the question, we hear a little voice sing out, “ahahAH<\/strong>ah” with her voice rising in tone in the same place even though she isn’t saying the actual word.<\/p>\n

    To follow up to that, when she reveals her hiding place, we would say, “There she is!” So now Adrianna will prompt us when she comes out of hiding with a, “sa-si-sis!” with the same tone and inflection that we always had used.<\/p>\n

    And of course she often repeats words we say throughout the day now, so this vocabulary continues to grow.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
