Watching Iyah is just as fun as watching TV…

The way she is curious about everything around her is fascinating to watch, I have to watch her closely though because some of the things she likes to do could potentially hurt her. I have to keep her close to me at all times. She mastered the art of walking when she turned one and although she slips and falls from time to time she can get all over the house now. Oh yes when the doors in our room are not closed she will go out and go to the other room or the living room. She’s not scared of the dark yet. She also empty any open drawers she could reach. She recently learned how to open hubby’s DVD-rom so she’s having a ball just pressing the button and watch it close and open. She loves that her feet takes her wherever she wants to go, that is why at the end of the day she is completely wiped from all the walking and playing she does. It is true that babies are like sponge, they take in everything. Iyah is really good in imitating us now, in her own way of course. Still at her young age I could make out certain words she’s trying to pronounce. Like when I say ouch…she will reply with accchh (very funny when she does this). This morning while I was chatting with my friend Aggie, I told her I had to go because my little one said, “dedede eeyah” and I was laughing at the thought of her conveying something to me. It was also amazing at the same time. Of course there’s also her signature “go go go” and the cute beautiful eyes (this she rarely does but when she do it is adorable. When you ask her how old she is she will try to show you one finger but sometimes it ends up being a letter L instead (still she gets the concept of what you’re trying to ask her). She also knows how to do the align (as in she will point her finger to your finger) and high five. She also knows what to do when we’re singing the song, If you’re happy and you know it…she will clap her hands.The list goes on and on…yes you are indeed growing up.
