her expanding vocabulary

at her paternal grandparents' in january, dd uttered her first real word: cat (it sounds weirdly like "kad" or "dat"). her maternal grandparents will argue that it's actually 'bird' - as my dad always brought her to look at birds.

new words are: dog. duck. round (from "round and round the garden, like a teddy bear", which dd renders as "wawwn wawn").

tonight, i am not sure but i think dd tried to say caterpillar. it came out as "wawawiwa" as she shook mr caterpillar (a lovely colourful toy).
