Because Zoe and Silas receive weekly speech therapy through early intervention, combined with the fact that their annual re-assessment for EI is coming up at the beginning of July, I have been keeping a running list of the words, sounds, and gestures that each kid has acquired. I want this list to go into the blog book I'll make for them again this year, so I decided to write this entry for the sake of posterity :)
Now that Silas' vocabulary development has picked up, he tends to start using words that Zoe already has on her list. Both kids regularly produce: mama, dada, this, that, hi, night-night, outside, shoes, up, down, hot, no, duckie, moon, cheese, banana, car, uh-oh, and keys. Additionally, Zoe has baby, pee pee, hat, apple, bus, choo choo, beep beep, and bye bye,. Silas also has on, off, and go.
Through EI they have learned a handful of signs, and those have been both helpful and fun. Both kids regularly use: more, milk, water, eat, for me, all done, please, help, puppy, bear, baby, cat, and apple.
Like most kids, they love to make animal sounds, like roar, meow, woof woof, moo, quack quack, monkey sounds, and chicken sounds.
We also love to sing songs with actions! A few of their favorites include "Row Your Boat", "Ring Around the Rosie", "Itsy Bitsy Spider", "Twinkle Twinkle", and "Old MacDonald".
They're absolutely hilarious these days and keep us on our toes!
