The parrot

Jae's progressing very well in her linguistic and motor skills. She's starting to pick up words from us and sometimes even remembering them and the usage of those words. Earlier this morning when we were on the way to school, she was babbling about either Barney or biscuits when she said "finished" while doing the palm rotating movement. I was a little surprised by that. Usually she would say "no more" which is a combination of her basic words "no" and "more". I still can't remember where she pick up that word.

Her swimming skills are getting better despite of stopping Aquaduck for a few months now. We have been religiously bring her to the pool every week and practicing her swimming and diving. Now she's able to hold her breath for a good 2 sec and kick herself forward. The good thing is she's not afraid to try again even if she choked, which makes a lot a difference when we are trying to teach her a skill.

Right now, her life pretty much revolves around Barney, biscuits, school and sleep. She's loving Barney so much it's the first thing she demands every morning. And she doesn't care if she has watch that CD for the twenth time.
