Braska's been just loving her words lately. She's still signing some, mostly when we're in public or around strangers, but she's adding more words all the time. Many of her words are just attempts at the actual word, but that's where we all start, right?!? We're not saying that she'll be giving speeches next month, but we are very proud that she's become such a mimic and that she is loving using so many sounds. We practice often, just running through her words, signs, and tricks. She especially loves to chime in with videos of herself, so I've been working on compiling all her favorites for her to work with. As I was editing this, she was sitting here saying the words over and over. So funny to hear her talking to herself on the screen and loving it. So here's a peek at some clips from our practice session tonight. Some words are more obvious than others. They are all great attempts, though, and we'll celebrate that! Make an on-line
Happy Birthday Grandma C! :) You have some beautiful memories stored up already with sweet Braska and so many more wonderful ones ahead! Have a great day!
ReplyDeleteBirthday greetings! I'm finding these occasions come around about every year. With ever-increasing speed.....
ReplyDeleteThank you so much Braska. The only thing that could make it better is an in-person cuddle. Thanks Jennifer and thanks Rod--you are so right. Everytime I turn around I am getting older and creakier.
ReplyDeleteI couldn't put my comment in again in the Other category. Very weird.
ReplyDeleteThose are some great pics! Did you take those?
ReplyDeleteHappy Birthday Grandma C! My Gabi's birthday is tomorrow!
Great pictures Braska! You and your granny are so cute together.
ReplyDeleteGrandma C--I don't know what's up with the "other" option... I can't seem to find anyone else that it's happening to. Anyone out there?
ReplyDeleteShannon--I think I took the 2nd and 3rd ones, if I remember correctly, but they were all taken with my camera. :o)
I'm trying the other... if this posts, it worked for me!
