Gabby Girl,
Can I ask a favor of you? Could you stop growing up so quickly? You see you're my snuggle bug and I'd like to hold on to that awhile longer. No? I didn't think so.
Love,
Mama
Gabby has been quickly adding to her vocabulary and linguistic skills. She's using her name to identify herself, though that means she often speaks in the third person--maybe she sneaking on Facebook at night. We're commonly hearing three word phrases, though often with pauses between the words.
"Gabby...hit...head."
"Sissy...play...ball."
"Hurt...self...elbow."
and my favorite so far, "Poop...Daddy's...bed." Thankfully she was wearing a diaper!
I also love the way she says certain words. When I was a kid my mom taught us to "Eskimo kiss" by rubbing noses and saying "Uga-Muga." It's quite possible that this Inuit kissing isn't real, but it's very cute, especially since Gabby does it and says "Muga-Muga."
She's making lots of animal noises, "Moo, Baa, Oink, Snort, Neigh, Quack," with a great gusto! She's been singing songs like "Twink, Twink, star. How wonder are. Up World High. Sky. How wonder are. Amen."
For some reason she's also started using a "W" for "R" in words. "Pweese?"
Then there is the new word I wish she hadn't learned, "Whhhhyyyy?"
"Please don't flip yourself head first out of the chair."
"Whhhhhyyyyy?"
"Please don't eat rocks."
"Whhhhhyyyyy?"
She's growing and changing so quickly right now. She has a great personality and she my little buddy. I love you Gabriella!
She looks so old in this picture
