Love Song

All weekend we've heard this love song. But before I get into that, I have some updates to report that I've been running behind on..

It was a couple of weeks back when it first happened: from being able to say a few syllables, and then full words, sweet Suhaana started saying multiple words together - 3 word phrases! The first phrase she said was "I love you"!! Such a sweetheart my little baby is! 'I love you', by the way, is a Barney song. And Barney, by the way, is a purple dinosaur. And why children, especially this little girl of mine adores and loves a purple dinosaur is beyond my comprehension! But I've accepted it. She loves Barney and with it, the Barney- I love you song. We were so amused when we were on our way to our friends' a couple weekends back and she kept repeating/practicing saying I-love-you all the way in the car! It was hilarious!

The next phrase was even more surprising! Unlike I-love-you, which is a song, the next one was from a book- stomp-your-feet.

Even more amazing (I thought) was this week, when she was putting words she knows together, by herself. Meaning, she hasn't heard those words being put together before, but since she knows what the words are, she's putting them together herself. I thought that was so amazing. Last week, when I turned off the TV, she was casually waving her hand and saying "Ba-bye TV". I was impressed!

This weekend, she's been singing, not just "I love you", but much of the whole song by herself "I love you, You love me, We're a happy family". It was so cool to hear her just sit and sing it by herself while we were clamoring over to try to get a decent video footage of the action! Proud to report, the video was pretty decent.

Also proud to report all the latest updates from my little baby!
