Mamma's eye, Daddy's eye, Barney's eye........

Yes, honey, that's Mamma's eye, yup, that's Daddy's eye, uhuh, that's Barney's eye. indeedie, that's Zippie's eye.....

Have you guessed the new word yet? :-) The endless repetition (especially by her Dad) of "Eye, Nose, Mouth, Ear" has paid off! She confidently points at everyone's eye and declares "EYE!".
I am SO proud of her! I love the way you can almost see her little brain absorbing the information, turning it around a bit, having a good look and then just making the connection.

Her favourite book is "The Wheels on Barney's Bus" it's a "lift the flap" book that proves a never ending source of entertainment, wonder and amazement.... The fact that she's walking now has opened new avenues of making clear what she wants. She can now walk, and carry the book at the same time. And so we will often have the book heave-howed in to our laps, and two arms extended towards us. The frown and pout make it clear that swift action is expected!

The concentrated look on her face once she's in your lap is priceless! As soon as she's perched there, she will grab you hand and point your finger to the page.
Only when you are animatedly pointing at Barney and his friends and making enthusiastic exclemations about the Purple Blob, will she sit back in to you and enjoy the show!

She's the bizzo
