Ryleigh's new words

Ryleigh is really starting to pick up on words that we say everyday. She makes an effort to repeat a lot of what we say. Recently bye (or bye-bye) has become a big part of her everyday vocabulary. She learned to say it before she was a year old, but after awhile she just wouldn't say it anymore. Now, she says it all the time. She will pick up a bag or a purse or anything that she put on her arm and yells bye (and something after that, it sometimes sounds like kids and sometimes sounds like everyone). She says bye when talking on the phone too.

She has started saying shoe and referring to her shoes using the accurate wording.

She started saying Archie a long time ago, but it was another one of those words that she stopped saying. Over the last week, I have noticed that she has started clearly saying it again and calling him by his name.

She learned to say baby a while back, but it is used daily now when referring to babies in books or the baby in mommy's belly.

She has a wide range of words that she uses in her everyday vocabulary and it seems to grow daily. She makes a wonderful effort to repeat any word that you ask her too. Last night, she tried saying uh oh spaghetti o's. It was so cute!!

Ryleigh you sound just like Andrew. He grabs purses or diaper bags, puts them on his arm, and says bye also. The other day at Grammy's house, he put a very girly, purple purse on his arm, blew me a kiss, said bye, and walked to the door. It's funny how kids do the same things!
