Nov. 10th, 2004 10:47 pmKiera's current vocabulary:
Uh-oh.
Wow! (This is how she says "Meow.")
Oof. (This is how she says "Woof.")
Mama.
Na-na. (This is our word for nursing; she also uses it for foods she wants.)
Abi. (My sister's name.)
Buh. (This seems to mean "ball" and "bottle" and "hey, I want that!")
She also points with her index finger when she wants something, and will hold up her arms and make grabbing gestures with her hands when she wants to be picked up. (I had a day care teacher friend call this the Universal Uppie Sign.) I've also heard her say something that sounds like "kitty" while trying to touch the cats; I heard her say something that sounded like "Woggo" tonight (one of our variant nicknames for Molly), and Molly insists that Kiera asked "whatcha doing" WEEKS ago even though no one else heard her say this.
One newish trick: if she wants to reach something inaccessible and there's a chair not to far away, she will shove the chair to where she needs it. I swear Molly didn't figure out she could do this until she was three.
