YAY! Lana is finally talking more. I heard from my other mommy friends that it happens--they just wake up one morning and can say anything and everything, but I have been patiently waiting for Lana. I wasn't worried or anything since she is learning both English and Chinese, but it has been getting harder and harder to figure out what she wants with such a limited vocabulary. Here are some of her new words and phrases:
"Nope!" Everything used to be "no", now everything is "nope". Would you like some cheese? Nope! Please put on your pants. Nope! Close your eyes and GO TO SLEEP!!!! Nope! I tell ya, it can be infuriating at times.
"Yellow bus" "Red bus" "Blue bus" "Green bus". Apparently, here in Everett, we have a lot of different colored buses. Lana slips a gear when she sees a bus--seriously she gets so excited and she always says "hallo" to the buses.
"Owwee weee" At the playground, she fell (owwee) on the slide (weee). Everytime we pass the park she says "Hallo" to the "owweee weee"
She has learned verbs and she drops the "g": walkin, runnin, cookin, eatin, drinkin, workin, lookin, washin--you get the picture.
She can now count to 5 in both English and Chinese. She pretty much has the alphabet song down, although she won't sing it straight through. She loves to sing Happy Birthday--which is good b/c all of her friends' birthdays are in April--so we have been getting lots of practice.
She has been so much fun lately. Bill and I are both laughing our heads off at something she does or says just about every day.

Aw, Lana is so cute. Hope you're getting some video of her when she's doing all of these cool things. :)
Isn't it great seeing them do new things! Matthew's language has been "exploding" as well lately and he's so proud of himself!! Can't wait to see some pics of Miss Lana.
