ms. evie is proving herself to be quite adept with the spoken word. she says about 15 things that we can understand now, and miraculously you'd probably understand most of them too. there are a few that it takes a little getting used to, like understanding "manu" is "paloma", but she can straight out ask for apples and bananas in a way to ensure she gets fed.
a couple of nights ago she woke up at 12:50 am. we heard her cry a little and both had the "well, guess i'll be up for a while" thought, when she started saying "agua, agua, agua". hmmm. maybe she just wants a little water? lo and behold, mike brought her a sippy cup, she drank, sat there for a few seconds and then laid down and went back to sleep for the rest of the night.
it is so cool to begin to have two way communication with her. she has been understanding a ton of stuff that we say, but it's so nice for her to be able to tell us what she wants. though, i do see signs of her being a bit of a chatterbox like me. i may be seeing karmic visions of some of my lip coming back to me...
