Developmental Update

Right now Joy says three words: Dada, Mama and Hi. She likes to wave and say Hi. She is just signing Cana now. She is learning to repeat simple actions, like hitting a ball with a small bat, or taking something in and out of a bowl. She is getting interested in books. She especially likes looking at pictures of cows and other animals with interesting sounds. She likes lift-the-flap books. She is not as into the rhyming books as Paul was.

She is still cruising, not walking independently. She is starting to stand up for a few seconds without holding on, until she realizes what she is doing.
