Gabie and Elisa Speak

This post has been a long time coming and it has been changing over the past 6 months so I'd better post it now!  It's crazy how much these two kids have grown and changed.  And crazy how well Elisa can talk!  They are only 2 years apart but it only took Elisa a year to catch up to Gabe, haha poor Gabe!

Here is a list I've made on my iPod.  Elisa's has changed more that Gabe's and I'm sure there are a couple of silly words missing that I can't remember right now.  Sadly, Elisa has outgrown much of her words and phrases and has replaced most of them with very clear, normal speaking.  Gabe hasn't changed as much.  He still says his r's as w's and his th's as f's or d's, among other speech impediments that are common for his age.

(We hired some girls in our ward a couple of months ago to watch the kids while Erik and I went out.  I put Elisa in her crib but she wasn't quite asleep yet when the girls came over.  They wanted to see her anyway so I let them in her room and she looks up and them and says: "Oh hoi, frwiends!".  Funnier and cuter in person!)


Ummm....Bah-Dat!  (She would say that and point when I would ask her what she wants to eat.  I think she was trying to say ummm...that!")
