Just One week from Second Birthday

This post is coming after a long gap from the first one. As they say "It's never too late..."

So the second birthday is just a week away!! The invites have been sent out, we shopped for the party decoration and return gifts as well as food. However the food part is not finalized as we didn't find the food at Sultan that good. One of the snacks tasting stale didn't help boost our confidence to order for the birthday party. Hot Breads visit was a success and we are getting exactly what we wanted for the cake and the cup cakes. Hopefully by tomorrow we will have the food part sorted out!!

Coming back to our "Princess" I would again like to focus on her vocabulary and talking aspect. Its amazing to see the rate at which she is picking up new words. Mind you we get to know that only when she uses them in front of us. So it would be safe to assume that she maybe knowing lot more words!! For example she made use of words like "move", "noise" and "gas" in the past few days.

Today as she was pretending to vacuum the house with her lawn mover, one of the lawn mover's piece come off. She immediately ran to her Mama and asked her to "fix it"!!.. By the way the lawn mover also makes "beep", "beep". Yes it has a imaginary HORN.

Its also amazing to see her use these words in communication and convey what she wants to. However, sometimes she does say some words which don't make any sense even after constant repetitions. This makes her feel hapless and frustrated and we feel sorry for the whole situation. I guess the best thing to do in this case is to divert her into a different conversion which seems to work 90% of the time.

More after Shreya's second birthday !!
