I’ve been so caught up in watching Pippa’s language development that Romilly’s advancing speech has really caught me off guard. I lost count of her words somewhere around 80, and I would guess she’s passed the 100 mark by now. Having mastered individual words, she seems to want to go straight to “grown-up” talk now. Always fascinated by her Bible story books, Romilly has started ‘reading’ her Bible stories like this: “A-bah-dah-bah-dah-dah-bah… JESUS, bah-doo-bah-dah JESUS.” The inflection is priceless and so grown-up. Oh yeah, and she always reads her Bible upside down. Always. At least we know she’s getting the most important stuff!

Isn’t that the best?! Lydia loves her “de-dus” book best and it makes me so happy!
(Do you have The Jesus Storybook Bible by Sally Lloyd Jones? It is THE best kids’ Bible book I’ve ever read. I’ve got a link on my blog, I’ll try to find it…)
Amanda, I think that’s the one our pastor said they give to parents at baby dedications. Bea is being dedicated in 2 weeks – handy 😉
