Last Tuesday, the 20th, Skyler looked right at my Dad and said, "Papa" for the very first time! We were all excited and I thought I did a good job of hiding my jealousy........still no sounds of Mama. It's been over a week and now she points at her proud Grandfather and it just rolls of her tongue, "Papa, Papa, Papa!"
Skyler is a huge fan of books and her favorite is Big Bird's First Book of Letters. (pictured above) She tries so hard to sing the ABC song and can actually do the first 4 letters, then she hums the rest. We travel every where with this book and she's always fortunate to find someone to read it to her.
She has the ability to point out pictures of Ladybugs and say, Lay-de-ug. Skyler does this quite often in her bedroom, since it is covered with these adorable little insects. In the Sesame Street book, she loves to point out the Ladybug. (see below)
She's definitely a conversationalist and is making plenty of effort to communicate. Skyler really understands the meaning of much of what you say and her vocabulary is rapidly expanding to help her convey her thoughts.
Another word that she can say is "Fish", especially during bath time because her squeaky fish friends are floating around her. She can also say our dog's name, Laney, and tries to say Jamie, but it comes out as Ainey. Too cute, just like these pictures! Happy 14 months, Angel!
