Stringing together words
As we were getting out of the car last night after work/daycare, Morgan turned and waved to the car and said ‘bye-bye car.’ Definitely the first time she has strung together words like that, unprompted and on her own. She did it again tonight. ‘Bye-bye car.’ I tried to get her to say ‘Bye-bye Dad’ at bedtime, but no dice. (You may recall I once prompted her into saying ‘down please’ but that was after much repetition and prompting, all within a 2-3 minute span.)
She is starting to use ‘please’ quite a bit more. And she now has a hook in her room from which she retrieves her jacket in the morning and hangs it in the evening. She still pushes in her chair after meals. And she has recently been put in charge of putting her dirty clothes in the hamper.
