Fiona's vocabulary and phrase list so far...

  • Papa is always Papa
  • Grandma and Andpa
  • Faitha, cousin Faith
  • Saiah, cousin Isaiah
  • Kias, their dog Zachias
  • Help me
  • Gimme

  • Me, Me, Me, means that it is Hers
  • book
  • Um-um, means I'm hungry
  • Otch, means scratch
  • Ouch!, refers to an injury or bump
  • Wee! , refers to slides or swings
  • Hi, spoken very loud and clear
  • Bye, just the same
  • I'm sure there's a few more that I've missed but her vocab just keeps on growing
  • and lots of grunting and pointing and motioning

Fiona loves to dance to different genres of music, reads fiction and nonfiction books, eats chicken gyozas, says the word "apple" over and over, identifies a few animals like cat and dog, chicken and horse, duck and bird, enjoys sitting by grandpa's pond watching the koi fish, gets excited when she sees other kids, needs to warm up to strangers, and watches Yo Gabba Gabba and The Wonder Pets attentively.

Her eating habits are a bit challenging. She's quite finicky. I'm afraid we have to sneak vegetables when we can. And when we do, she spits it right out. That crazy girl!

Stayed tuned for more Fiona fun facts...
