Cow! Mooooo!




Finley said her first word - after mama, dada, and uh-oh. She was suffering from some residual diarrhea from the stomach bug she caught Monday and had had a blow-out. I was changing her and said, "Holy Cow!" Clear as day, she looked at me and said, "Cow". I said, "Yes! What does a cow say?" and she pursed her little lips up and said, "Moo." It must have been all the work Dale did, reading her the animal book on the way to get our taxes done the other day. That, or all the playing she's been doing with the animal puzzle Scott and Danielle gave her for her birthday. Or, probably most likely, the recent trip Finley took to her Grandpa Tim's farm. Anyway, it's so fun to see her learning. With the warm weather we've had the last two days, she has done a lot of exploring outside and testing the waters. This summer is going to be fun!

Oh, Finley - you have that beautiful big backyard to explore! Lots of new words to learn on those springtime walks, too! Can't wait to hear you in person....And Sadie's first word was "duck", but it didn't exactly always come out Duck...
