Oh No I'm Not

A story about the constucts simple phrases milestone, recorded Aug 22, 2011

by Holly Venables // 0 comments // tagged with: Maisie Venables

Maisie's favorite show is the Wiggles.  They have a routine where one Wiggle is supposed to guess what the other Wiggle is dressed like, and when the guess is wrong, the Wiggle says "Oh No I'm Not".
Maisie has latched on to this phrase and likes to point and say "Oh No-Not"

Maisie Venables had stitches last week for a bitten lip. She was a real trooper at the doctor's office.

She was so excited, laughing and screaming the whole time.  It was really funny to see her try to hug the crowd, smiling with her big grin.

Maisie Venables -- thank goodness for freeze dried fruit and coconut milk. They are the new favorites.

Bath time

by Holly Venables // 0 comments // tagged with: Maisie Venables

Maisie's new favorite word, besides "More", is "Bath".  I have to be very careful about when I say it, because when she hears it, she says "Baaaath?" and runs to the bathtub.  I think swimming and taking baths are her favourite things to do, she's like a little fish. 

Ingenuity

A story about the experiments with means to a goal milestone, recorded Jun 27, 2011

by Holly Venables // 0 comments // tagged with: Maisie Venables

I made the mistake of allowing Maisie to try a bite of one of the chocolate brownies on the kitchen table.  Now she has reached the "experiments with means to a goal" milestone.  I turned around after a few seconds and she had dragged a kitchen chair up to the section of the table where the brownies were stashed.  I saw her little chubby leg trying to hike herself up onto the chair.

She crawled through the coffee table!  What a monkey.

Reading

A story about the fills in words in familiar stories milestone, recorded Jun 6, 2011

by Holly Venables // 0 comments // tagged with: Maisie Venables

I am convinced that Maisie is actually reading.  We were reading a picture book of animals when Maisie would point to the animals and either sign the word or say the animal sound.
She knows that a cow picture is "Moo", a Fish (she does the sign language for fish), Dogs say "Woof Woof" and a Cat is "Meeeeeeoooo".  She does this by herself without my prompting.  I'm so proud.
