chatter chatter chatter

Gaby is talking soooooooooooooooo much now!!! She's stringing 2-4 words together - she is just so clever!!! All of a sudden she's turning into a real little person, telling me what she wants, telling me what she sees, telling me what is annoying her.... I am trying to teach her numbers & basic colours, but I don't want to push her, because I know it isn't something that she's EXPECTED to know at this age!

Speaking of her age - she's almost 21 1/2 months old! How the hell did she get that old? This time next year she's going to be almost THREE! It's scary - very very scary. Still feels like just a few weeks ago that she was a little babe, totally dependent on me for EVERYTHING, but now she's doing a lot for herself. I really should start thinking vaguely about her birthday party. I would love Terri to be able to come to it, so I'll plan the dates around her if she can come - and I think I might invite Grandma up to it, now that she's retired & has time on her hands!

We had a few days in Dunedin last week, was good to catch up with everyone - and of course Gaby got showered with attention which she loved! She enjoyed teasing Jasmine by not giving her cuddles or kisses - yet you could tell she wanted to. Was pretty funny!
