bull-do-do

bah-do-do has now become "bull-do-do." that's right, i'm getting better at talking every day. before i tell you about that, take a look at these pics my grandmama took. how cool is this? i got to be right up close to this bulldozer. all summer long workers have been doing stuff to the streets around grandmama's house. it's been so neat to watch them work. this night, grandmama took me around the block to the park to play and i got to check it out real close. i'm just about half the height as the tire! next year maybe i'll be as tall? who knows...i haven't gone through a growing spurt in a while, so we'll see.
so, i'm talking really good lately. daddy worked with me this weekend on saying more than one word at a time. i'm now an expert at saying "thank you mama" and "bye-bye daddy." my latest word i've learned is granddaddy. maybe one day soon i'll get to see my granddaddy and grandma. they live far away but we're all hoping to visit soon. granddaddy has to hear me say his name! i do it really good. the number of words i can say is getting bigger every day. i can say chair, garbage (i help in putting stuff in the garbage, but have to be careful it really IS garbage i'm helping with), bubble, water, shower, swimming, truck, car, my teachers' names -- amanda, stephanie ("ste-nie"), liz, jennifer, alecia, i can also say cereal, milk, chicken, school, home, house, digger. lots of other words, but i can't think of them -- like shoes and socks and jeans. i've been saying stuff for a long time, but i learn really fast now.
