As I was trying to fall asleep last night, I began to reflect on the nice day Maeve had and how much she has already learned during her short life. So, I decided, since I am horrible at keeping a baby book for her, I should give everyone, including her, the low down on her likes/dislikes, vocabulary, and overall quirkiness thus far....
The following is a list of her current (we're talking as of today's date) vocabulary:
Dada: Da-da
Momma: Mah
Nana: Nah
Gramp: Da
Grampa: Pa (sometimes Papa)
Thank you: Eh-uh
Please: Pa, pa, pa
Pasta: Pa-ha
Down: Dow-nah
All done: Ah-duh
Uh Oh: Ah-o
Banana: Na-na-na
Aunt Katie: A-ka
Elmo: Eh-mo
Vacuum: Daaaaa da da (yes, that's one long Da and two short das)

Next we have a couple of samplings of some of her responses to certain questions or cues:
What does the snake say? sssssssss....
What does the dog/bird/fish/kitty/elepant/horse/sheep/or just about any other animal roaming the planet with the exception of the snake say? ummm-ummm (this comes out sort of like a throaty grunting sound)
_______________________________________
Favorite foods (in no particular order):
Black beans, pasta, chicken/tuna salad (usually), tofu nuggets (really!), shredded wheat cereal, pancakes, spinach/feta quiche, pineapple, blueberries (although we recently learned that she basically swallows these whole - as we watched them one by one, float to the surface of the water in her bathtub - rendering them nutrition-less), banana, raisins, most sweets
_______________________________________
These are a few of HER favorite things (again, in no special order):
Balls (bouncy or not, any size, any color)
Shoes (this inclues cowboy boots and sandals)
Hats
Binky
Blanket

If I have left anything out, please feel free to e-mail me (you know who you are) and I will gladly add to this compilation.
