I’m Using Pronouns!

For the last couple of days, Katya has been making announcements such as, “I’m eating O’s!” It took me a day or 2 to realize that she is no longer always referring to herself in the third person, despite watching lots of Elmo. Yay!

Katya also just started saying garbanzos instead of “banzo.” She now says penguin instead of “pengoo.” It’s sort of cool and sort of sad.

Nur-ur-ur-sies has become nur-si-si-sies has become no-no-no-no-nursies.

When I use “me” in a question to her, she often calls me “me” in her response. I sort of wonder if she thinks “me” is short for “Mommy.”
