Caroline’s first words were Mama and Dada. Very sweet. Now, she says over 20 words adding cat, dog, puppy, bottle, shoe, sock, book, ball, block, juice, no, yeah, wow, uh oh, yum, up, down, Hello, Bye Bye, Grandpa.
Recently, she has just moved on to a couple of 2 word sentences. In the past, it was only “Up, Mama.” “Down, Mama.” Now, she has two sentences that are not commands.
“Who’s that”
This sentence started in the bank one day. Daniel and I were at the teller window, when suddenly Caroline points to the teller and says “Who’s that?”
“That’s the teller,” I replied, “She is helping us.”
She then pointed to the people in line behind us and happily shouted, “Who’s that?”
“Those are people waiting in line. Now, stop pointing. It’s rude.”
This morning, she was pointing at her Grandpa, and asking “Who’s that?”
This first real question is a bit rude, but I was very impressed when it came out of her mouth.
The second sentence- “I know.”
The first time she said this, I was getting up off the floor. My back was aching from carrying her around all day and playing on the floor with her, and I exclaimed, “I’m old!”
Caroline happily replied, “I know!”
Again, kind of rude, but I was floored when it came out of her mouth. “Did she just say ‘I know’?”
My only consolation is that she did the same thing to Daniel when he said that he was old. 
So, basically, my daughter is a busybody who wants to know everyone’s business and who enjoys pointing out the faults of others. Clearly, I am a success as a parent.
