New images in the gallery above. At 15 months Remi’s vocabulary is now 19 words strong. Her mastery of English includes:

• Mommy
• Daddy
• Meow (not the sound, she uses it for “cat”)
• That (I contend this was her first word)
• Hot dog (we can’t count this as 2 words since she only uses them for one meaning)
• Ice
• Uh-oh (she uses this one a lot)
• Bowl (we have no idea how she learned this one)
• Bottle
• Baby
• Bow (her word for any non-cat animal)
• Be-bo (our word for Belly Button)
• Bear
• Water
• Eye
• Hi
• Light
• Ball
• Book (not surprising since she plays with her books all day long)

*edit* She just said a new word during lunch today: “Bean”

That’s 19 20 and counting!

Remi is walking!

We were getting pretty sick of hearing stories about 10 month old babies walking.  At 14 months Remi was content with crawling.  Why bother walking if you are lightning fast as a crawler?

She has been standing for 2-3 months.  Teasing us with the idea of walking by bouncing up and down as if dancing to music.  She would even cheat by walking while holding on to furniture.  Despite our best efforts to encourage an untethered step Remi wasn’t interested.

About 3 weeks ago she took 2 steps for mommy.  She let go of her furniture support and let her legs take her for a brief test.  We thought she was ready to enter the bipedal world but there was to be no more excitement for another 2 weeks.  Early this past week Remi took 9 wobbly steps to a pillow as daddy sat in shock.  By Thursday it only took a little encouragement to “stand up” and she would walk with purpose.

By this time next week I expect she will be running agility courses.
