Oswin

[watervole]

 Oswin is really starting to understand stuff now.

Her babble is mostly babble, but their are definite sounds that mean things like "I want that"

Her understanding was really brought home to me yesterday.  She was trying to reach something on the other side of the table, so I tried to distract her by asking if she'd like to play "Round and round the garden like a teddy bear"

She instantly sat up, held out her hand and pointed to the palm.

(For those few among you who don't know the game, it involves me walking my fingers round the palm of her hand and then tickling her under the armpit)

I love this age when they learn so much so fast.

Babies are cute.  Toddlers are an absolute menace, but they're also far more interesting.
