Julia talking & some of her first words

I thought I'd put up a couple videos of Julia (these are from March 29th).  The first is of Julia running & chasing a ball in our living room.
I wanted to put up a list of some of Julia's first words.  She was saying a few words earlier, but most of her words have come in the last couple of months.  Between 18 & 19 months, these were the words that she started to say...  She started saying "gacie" for Gracie and "coe" for Chloe, but then that also turned into "LoLo" or something like that.  She says a little of both for Chloe now.  Here are some other words... ball, mine, puppy (she uses this for cats & dogs), this, bye-bye, baby, boots, backpack, lolly (for lollipop), cookie, tickle, bite (as in "can I please have a bite of that?"), down, trash (she loves to throw things away...), ow, uh-oh, go (as in "here you go" when she hands us things), nose, bubbles, eyes, shoes.  

Her vocabulary really exploded over the last couple of months.  She really likes any word that ends in "s" and adds an "s" to a lot of words... so, instead of ball, it's always ballsssss, etc.

Here are a few videos of Julia talking.  (Well, really of me going through some of her favorite words with her).

It's so great that you got recorded some of those first sweet words. What fun to have a record of the wonderful stage of learning to talk!
She is a cutie and looks so grown up!!
