Babbling Queen
Rylie is learning how to communicate with her new words from the time she wakes up till she goes down for the night. Rylie’s my new alarm now since she’s started to scream, “Moooommmm!!!” or “Daaaaaa!!!” once she’s up. I’m amazed at how fast she picks up new words and remembers how and when to use them the next time. Sometimes, Youkeun and I are talking to each other when Rylie suddenly interrupts us by copying us or acting out one of the words she recognizes. I think it’s just this week that she’s learned how to put two syllables together… like “diapa” or “Dora.”
She also recognizes my friends and will remember their names … esp if she receives a gift from them. For ex… she’ll grab her new jacket and say “Mila” for Mina. My other friend Deanna got her a hello kitty purse, so she’ll put it on her arm and say “Anna.” Other items she’s received, she’ll automatically assume it’s from her grandparents and say “ha” for hara-buji or halmoni.
Tonight, we asked Rylie to pray for our dinner by copying me and this is how it went.
(me) Dear God …
(R) Ga
(me) Thank you
(R) nods her head
(me) for mamma
(R) mamma
(me) And Thank you
(R) nods her head
(me) for mommy
(R) mom
(me) and daddy
(R) da
(me) In Jesus name we pray
(R) Aaa
(me) AmenThe weather’s been so nice these days, we decided to take Rylie to the park yesterday to enjoy the sun.
