Expanding my verbal repertoire

As you might already know, I've been saying "dog" for weeks now.  I really love my canine brothers, Gryffin and Bucky (who like to get up as early as I do!), and I'm always very excited to see them.  As soon as my mom carries me down the stairs, I very proudly declare "dog," knowing that my 4-legged friends are just around the corner.  I am very proud of myself for this accomplishment, though I must confess that I have been anxious to add to my spoken lexicon.  Alas, when prompted to utter other words - "ball," "hot," etc. - I have simply replied with my most reliable response: "dog."

But yesterday I finally added a second word to my verbal repertoire...and it is "hat!"  My dad was wearing his favorite baseball cap as he so often does on the weekends.  I usually like to play with this hat and so was trying to grab for it and daddy said, "hat"...and I repeated it!  My mom and dad are really proud of me and I love entertaining them with my skills.  Hope to have more words soon.  :o)
