Eeyore, Baa Baa and more


Yesterday, Janelle learnt how to say "Eeyore" (the cute donkey from Winne the Pooh) when she saw her eeyore soft toy. And she says it not as a word, but more like a high-whisper sound that goes "eeyore". She sounds so cute when she says it! And she's been repeating "eeyore" over and over again, as though to perfect the pronunciation!

Her favourite song now is "Baa Baa Black Sheep". She will go "baa baa" and expect me to finish singing the song for her, where she will happily nod her head when we reach the part that says "Yes Sir, Yes Sir...". And her nodding of head looks almost like she's dancing! Because she'll shake her whole body to and fro (including her head). She has yet to learn how to nod only her head, and not her shoulders and back as well. Haha   And the amazing thing is that she never gets tired of that song! After I finish singing it, she will go "baa baa" again to request for me to sing it over again - it is almost as though her singing of "baa baa" is like a coin slotted into a jukebox (me being the jukebox)!


Some other new words she's picked up:
- bag (she'll say "beh")
- fish (she'll say "hish" without the "f" sound)
- bubble
- more (she'll say "more" and do the "no more" hand sign, ie. she actually means to say "no more" but can only say 1 word at a time)


This picture is of her fake smile. She'll smile whenever we ask her to, but her smile turns out looking fake!
