11.11.10: Seventeen months old


(left to right: fiona, daphne, stella)

At seventeen months, the girls are really becoming little people (vs. babies). We find some sort of errand or adventure everyday and try to do something crafty (crayons, painting, etc) at least once a week. The girls have started sharing with each other especially when someone is upset. I have seen each of them bring a sippy cup to someone who is devastated that their current cup is empty. They are becoming a little gang and occasionally sit patiently while I read a book. This month they have begun demanding books be read to them ALL THE TIME. Brant has even had to hide a few that we just couldn't take reading for a 100th time. Each day the girls learn new words/sounds and continue to impress us with their understanding of language.

It has become difficult to track who says what and add it to the blog, so I am including the original list below for historical purposes. I'm sure that this list excludes several words for each of them, but I am a mom of triplets so somehow it seems excusable.

Talking:
(when other people - besides Brant and me - recognize what is being said by the girls)
