The last couple of days have been rather eventful. First, Taelyn spoke her third word, "duckie," on Tuesday. She was in the bathtub, playing with her rubber duckie, and after I said the word several times, she started to say "duckie." The next day, we were at some friends' house where Taelyn got to play with their dog. Again, I said the word "doggie" over and over, and then Taelyn said it back as she was looking at the dog. She has known the meaning of these words for a few weeks now, but this is the first time she actually said them.
Since Taelyn is starting to identify words with objects, she loves to read her touch-and-feel baby animal book with us. We look at each animal on the page together while Justin and I say the name of the animal. Taelyn loves to go back and read this book over and over again to learn the names of each animal. Then afterward, I will take out her animal puzzle and ask her to find a specific animal from her book like the bunny. After studying the bunny from her book, she immediately grabs that puzzle piece. It's really neat to see her making these connections.
Today, I also noticed another tooth, totaling nine now. It is up top, but not next to the other four. Instead, it is a couple of spaces down on the right toward the back.
