Want proof? Point 1. Last night Marc and I were relaxing, enjoying having both kids in bed, when we heard a thump from upstairs. It wasn't Santa, but rather Anna waking herself up by hitting her head on the crib. When I went up to soothe her, I asked her where her boo boo was. She pointed to her left temple, and as clear as day said "here". (Until then, she's been able to mimic back to us what we are saying and point to a few things and call them by it, but that's a big step in communication right there!)
Point 2. Anna and I were reading a book about Curious George. In it, there was a smallish bird sitting on an elephant's back. I said to Anna, "Look, Anna, there's a bird!" Anna said, "Yeah, baby bird!" I don't know if technically it was a chick or not, but it was awfully small... esp. in comparison to the elephant!
Aw, what a clever 18 month old my little girl is turning into! Nate seems to be really enjoying her more too. He is always "reading" books to her, which is especially helpful when Marc is away and I am trying to take a shower in the morning!!
