It's been a while!

I can't believe it's been about a month since I posted. Linda has been very busy in the last month. We took a visit to Grandma and Grandpa's house. We spent time w/Aunt Debbie, Aunt Kelly, Uncle Tim, Morgan and Collin. Linda loved Collin and Morgan. They all played so good together. We got home and she was asking for Collin for days!

Linda likes to "ride cock horse." The is putting her at the end of your leg and bouncing her up and down to a tune. The other day she went up to Copper (the dog) and said, "ride cock horse." She then attempted to climb on him. It was too funny.

She is really enjoying the pool now. She asks to go in it all the time now. I'm glad b/c she was so timid about it in the beginning of the season. The water has been so warm, so I think that helps too.

Linda seems to have had another language explosion. She is using quite a few two and three word sentences now. Before she would use a sentence once in a while, but now it is frequent. Today she brought a book to me and said "read the book please." She finally called a pineapple the right name. Before it was always just apple.

It is amazing how her mind works. The fact that she talks so good is amazing, but her understanding of concepts is even more amazing. She was in the car today and I hear her saying, "up, down, up, down." I look back and she is pushing her self up and then letting her self down. She understands both words, and knows they are related to each other. Pretty amazing for a 16 month old. She also knows off/on, in/out, hot/cold, open/closed.

I'm going to try to post every day or so again. It's hard to get back in the habit.
