Word List

Sarah's therapist asked me to start a list of Sarah's words for her so we could see how many she is saying. So here goes:

momma

dada

lilah(Elijah)

bubba(Elijah when she is mad)

doll

baby

mine

done

more

dog

pig

woof, woof(when asked what a dog says)

up

bite

want

that

baba(bottle-used for wanting a drink)

clap

nite-nite(wants to go to bed)

no

yes

nana(my mom)

papapa(Pop-pop my dad)

nanma(grandma Doug's mom)

hi

bye-bye

Combined phrases:

dada clap

momma up

want that

momma nite nite

baby doll

lilah no

lilah mine

Sarah does not use words on a regular bases. Some days she only babbles, other days she talks. It all depends on her mood. She will also say her vowel sounds that we are learning in therapy. Not for the therapist, but at home or on the way home from therapy.

She still refuses to do any signs. She will take your hand and sign more and done, and will point to a sign if you are giving her an option. She will initiate patty cake and itsy bitsy spider by doing the motions.

Update: At lunch today Sarah signed more 2 times!!! I asked her if she was done and she signed more!! YIPEE!!!
