I think I have a parrot in the house…oh….wait….nope – it’s just Valeria!
She has been chatting for a while now and just recently, she has been repeating Anthony and I more and more. It’s absolutely incredible to hear and yes, she does still make up words and baby talks sometimes. However, I am finding she is becoming clearer each day and she is stringing together words to create very short sentences right now.
Though my absolute favorites are the phrases she’s picked up from Anthony and I – “Oh really?!” “Oh yeah!” “Yeah buddy” and so on! And man is she funny, like she is such a little jokester. When she says something funny or “bad”, she has this huge grin on her face and laughs, often followed by her running away with pure joy and excitement. It’s a beautiful sight to witness.
She has learned to say Happy Birthday, in her adorable baby girl voice, which sounds more like “Appy Burrthday!” Oh and she is able to answer the question “How old will you be?” “Twoo!” And she is so proud of herself when she says it too! Her birthday is coming up quickly, so it felt only right to teach her.
I love how much she is learning and so quickly that it’s absolutely astonishing. The nice thing is she seems interested in wanting to continually learn as well, which she gets from both Anthony and I. She’s got an inquisitive mind, I love it.
Anyway, that’s all for now, but look out for more tidbits from my little parrot!
I hope you have a wonderful day or night wherever you are in the world!
Ciao!
