21 Months

I am now 21 months. Mommy said I am to get a new car. Wahoo!
I can do so many things now too. Mommy and I have conversations all the time about important things, such as trains, and animals, and cars, and how I can't stand having my diaper changed. Mommy says I'm talking better and better every day and I show her that I can understand her - of course I still act like I don't sometimes. Its kinda fun playing like i'm a baby ... it really frustrates Mommy! But sometimes I am very good and I listen to what she tells me to do. I like to take Mommy, Daddy and Ba Ngoai on walks and show them things, I like taking baths and get really mad when I have to get out, I like throwing temper tantrums and shrieking at the top of my lungs, making phone calls to my friends, I like playing with the kitties and annoying them, I like mowing the lawn, and I still love Dora and Diego. There are just too many things to list!

Conversations with Mommy go like this:
Me: Mommeeeee come on!
Mommy: Where are we going?
Me: I don't know? Where we going?
Mommy: You tell me!
Me: Come on Momma, up up!
Mommy: You walk a ride?
Me: All Abooooard! (and I climb up on her back and make her ride me all over the house).
OR
Mommy: Baby, Mommy needs to change your diaper.
Me: NOoooooOOooO!
Mommy: Khai Khai...
Me: Hee hee heee (as I run away).
Mommy: Khai, do you like yogurt melts?
Me: NO (as I devour the few she hands to me).
Mommy: Khai Dinh, you have a full diaper.
Me: Hee Hee Heee
OR
Me: Good morning Pepe, Good morning Lily (to the kitties).
Kitties: (they run away)
Me: Kitty come on! Come kitty!! (making a clicking sound to call them).
Kitties: (total fear)
Me: Kitty!!! COME! Meeoooowwww Meeeooowwww

I can identify many things now. Mommy can ask me where certain things are in my books and I know where all of them are and sometimes I surprise her by showing her I've learned things on my very own that she had no clue about! I'm very smart. I've been working on hard words like Octagon (even though I have no clue what that means) and I'm adding more animal sounds to my list. I really can't wait to go to school and make some friends. I love going to the playground at the mall, and just love being out and about and my favorite word is NO. Soon i'll be 2 whole years old! And you know what that means... PARTY!!!!
