Baby Talk

As Evie June approached the two month mark this week, she's rapidly adding to her repetoire of abilities. She's discovered her hands and now enjoys staring at them, putting them in her mouth, and grabbing things (mainly my hair). The day she can put the pacifier back in her mouth independently is the day we look forward to. She's figured out that if she slams her arms and legs down in the tub, the water splashes up on the walls. This she likes. She's been sleeping for longer stretches--a couple of 8 hour nights have us hopeful for what's to come. She's sporting a discernable hairline, but as yet no real hair to speak of besides her little mullet tuft in the back. And she's holding her head up with (almost) complete control. She still has her bobblehead moments, but that little neck is getting stronger, or the extra chins are just providing stability.

And she's talking! Well, vocalizing at least in ways that differ from crying. Coos, laughs, grunts, mews, growls, have all entered her vocabulary. Click on the image below for a very special message from the girl herself. Make sure you're speakers are turned up.

Now, my baby speak is about as fluent as my Hindi, so her words are certainly open to interpretation. Translation, anyone?
