Keeley Words

Over the past several weeks Keeley's vocabulary has greatly increased. She's finally understanding the value of verbal communication. Although at this point most of her words are still "repeat words" meaning we tell her to say something and she repeats it. She does understand a lot of them. So here's a brief list of the most popular ones.

"Momma"
is most popular, she loves her Momma

"football"
is one of my favorites. When she sees the Tennessee Titans logo she will say "football". (although it's debatable at this point whether that's actual football with how bad they're playing)

"Bubba"
is Bryce

"Ree"
is Rece

"Kee Kee"
is Keely, but also a nickname we call her sometimes, so that one is accurate.

"coke"
yummmy

"kitty" "doggy"
she loves animals

"broccoli"
not quite clear yet, but Liesl loves the way she says it, it's really cute

"fishy"
most of the time it's because she wants goldfish crackers

It seems she learns something new every day, especially with two crazy older brothers who teach her all kinds of boy stuff, yikes!

Oh! She's growing up! Look how much bigger she is in these pictures compared to the one in the sidebar.

That's so exciting that she's starting to communicate verbally (not just audibly, aka, screaming).

I can't believe she says football. You can tell who she lives with...

I used to call my brother "bubba" and "bubby" too. Only his name was TJ, so it had nothing to do with his name, but brother, I guess.

I bet Liesl just melts every time she hears her say "Momma." (well, maybe not *every* time...) I just adore this little girl.

I love my Kiki!! This morning I was trying to teach her Grandma. I said "Grand" "Ma"...she got the "Ma" part. :)

That's great that she's talking so much! Eva's not saying quite so many things... or maybe I just haven't paid as much attention. :) Miss Keeley is a cutie!

Thanks for sharing your sweet babygirl with us, Bryan. It's so exciting to start to hear their little voices. I can't wait to hear what is on her mind soon. I bet she will be a talker like her momma! :) I look forward to having "girl time" with her as she gets older!
