Samantha has begun to talk and understand words. She is also learning signs and will sign Dog and Boba (bottle). She can say Momma and she says Addy or Ada for Daddy/Dada. It has now become apparent that she understands what we mean when we say certain words. A couple days ago when Samantha was woke up an hour earlier than usual I brought her downstairs to play I was still very tired so I laid beside her as she played. Of course she didn't want to stay and play with her toys she wanted to crawl around and explore. As she made her escape she spotted Sparky's toy but just before she could get within reaching distance I said NO. She stopped and looked at me as if to know exactly what I meant. I was so surprised, I had never told her NO before but she has heard us tell Sparky NO before. It was really cute to see her understand what I said and listen even if she didn't want to. (we'll see how long that lasts!) :)
