Ever heard a 2-year-old say "ting tang, walla walla bing bang"? It's pretty cute -- especially when said toddler is supposed to be taking a nap but is singing in her crib instead.

So, when I took Ashlinn to the doctor last week for her well baby visit, the questionnaire they had me fill out in the beginning asked if my child could put two words together to form a sentence. While we were in the room, she said "I have a gown like sister's" (they were both there for well baby visits), "I put my shoes on the chair," and "Look, it's the car movie" (they had stickers on the wall from Disney's Cars). Yeah, I'd say she can put two words together.

The questionnaire also asked if she knew at least 20 words. I'm pretty sure she said 20 words just while we were there. I guess I have a chatterbox on my hands. But I wouldn't have it any other way! I love listening to her learn new words and use them in the proper contexts later on. She's getting so big and learning so much so quickly -- even how to sing silly songs when she's supposed to be going to bed.
