D is really advancing her vocabulary these days. So, I thought I'd share her vocabulary with...the world and whoever cares. :oD
Mind you, the following does not encompass the words that she "knows" and responds to. These are just the words she uses.
Mandarin: Ma-ma (mom), Ba-ba (dad), Jiao (foot), Ma (horse), Chu (pig), Tze-tze (fruit pit), Yo-yong (swim, though she pronounces "ylong-long"), Go-go (dog), Mao (cat), Ya-ya (duck), Nai-nai (grandma), Yie-yie (grandpa), Gong-gong (sometimes), Gu-gu (Aunt), Kong-long (dinosaur), Dan (egg), ming gan (rash - cuz mommy has them but she pronounces it "magan"), bao-bao (pick me up)
English: banana, bottle, eye, baby, ball, blueberry, water, milk, hat, cry, keys, computer (sometimes), knuckle, owie, itchy, watch (as in "watch" tv. Not what goes on the wrist) annnd maybe her favorite word - nack (snack). She uses it ALL THE TIME, all done, all gone, more, yucky, gross (compliments of Mommy..), open, walk, umbrella and this is my favorite right now - Go! Goooo!!! (this she learned from mimicking Mommy while behind a wheel. These Nashville drivers...) Oh and she knows the word "no" very well.
Hmm, those are all the words I can think of right now. She's so amazing sometimes. :o) The ONE word she refuses to say that we are all dying for her to say is...Po-po (Grandma on her mom's side. Hahah!)
Oh, and let's not forget about the friends (and family) that she can call by name - Jack, Hope, Hannah, Aiden, Nina. Of course, every picture that she sees of a young girl with dark hair is pretty much Hope, but know she knows who Hope is because once when I picked Hope up and she jumped in the car, D had just woken up and said, "Hope" pointing to her.
That's it for milestones right now.
