Making progress

Three months after having Lauren's speech assessment she is making great strides in learning more words. In July she said about 6-7 words, as of today the list has definitely grown. Now at 25 months here are her current words/phrases:

• Hello
• Go! Go, go go
• No
• Yes
• Up
• What's that?
• Love you
• Cool
• Please
• Thank you
• Where are you?
• Bye, bye
• Apple

She is excellent at repeating - or at least trying to repeat - what you say, but the key is to say "Your turn" and  that's when she makes the effort. I'm not sure why. It all started after the hugging thing started.

There is a long way to go, but she is definitely making progress.
