17 months!

I can't believe Lila is 17 months old. That is so close to 18 months, which means a year and a half!
She is a toddler all around. She plays by herself. She has a brilliant imagination, playing in her kitchen, with her bears and babies.
I have always thought Lila could understand a lot more then people how babies credit for. I feel like everyday she has new breakthroughs with her speech and communication, and the world period. She talked about "sharing" her shovels with her friends at the park.
She wants something and she can usually, with words communicate what that is. A cracker? To color? To paint? To go outside "side"? He has the cutest little "yes". She says "get you one" after I confirm what she wants.
She is our little parrot repeating back everything we say. Three four words. Sentences strung together. Her vocabulary grows every day! As Gigi predicted on day 2. "She is born to talk, this girl has something to say!" that she does!
